	FS 471, SEE THE LETTER WRITTEN BY DOUG KUBOSH AND
	SIGNED AND SEALED BY CHRISTOPHER PLY DATED 9/17/2014.
	DOUG KOBOSH, GENERAL MANAGER OF ALLIANCE COMPOSITES, IS
	NOT LICENSED TO PRACTICE ENGINEERING. THE LETTER SHOULD
	BE WRITTEN BY THE ENGINEER, NOT AN UNLICENSED
	INDIVIDUAL. IF THIS INDIVIDUAL IS LICENSED, IT IS NOT
	CLEAR WHY HE DID NOT SIGN AND SEAL THE LETTER AND
	CALCS.

	SEE FLORIDA ADMINISTRATIVE CODE 61G15 23.002, TITLE
	BLOCK REQUIREMENTS. IS THE ENGINEER PRACTICING
	ENGINEERING THROUGH ALLIANCE COMPOSITES INCORPORATED,
	AND THIS NAME AND ADDRESS SERVE AS A TITLE BLOCK? IF HE
	IS, AN ENGINEERING BUSINESS NUMBER IS REQUIRED; REVISE
	TO INCLUDE THE CERTIFICATE OF AUTHORIZATION.

	IF THE ENGINEER IS NOT PRACTICING ENGINEERING THROUGH
	ALLIANCE COMPOSITES INCORPORATED AND THIS IS NOT HIS
	TITLE BLOCK, PROVIDE A TITLE BLOCK ON THE REVISED
	LETTER.

	LETTER STATES THAT THE DESIGN IS BASED ON TYPE 2 SOIL
	CONDITIONS. IT IS NOT CLEAR WHAT SOILS CLASSIFICATION
	METHOD WRITER IS REFERRING TO. ENGINEER IS TO REVIEW
	SOILS REPORT AND REFER TO SOILS REPORT IN THE LETTER.

	THE LETTER STATES THAT CALCULATIONS INDICATE COMPLIANCE
	WITH FBC 2010 AND ASCE 7 10.

	CALCULATIONS FOR POLE TYPE B2 STATE THAT CALCS ARE
	BASED ON ASCE 7 10 AND THAT RESULT IS TEST LOAD.
	REGARDING THE CALCULATIONS, IT IS UNCLEAR HOW TEST LOAD
	CORRELATES WITH THE SPEC FOR THE POLE, OR HOW THIS
	SHOWS THAT THE PROPOSED POLE WILL RESIST THE DESIGN
	WIND LOADS. CALCS DO NOT PROVIDE A CONCLUSION.

	STRESS CALCS (TENON OR SIDE ARM MOUNT), WIND FORCE ON
	POLE AND WIND FORCE ON LUMINAIRE, DATED 10/27/09 BUT
	SEALED 9/5/2014 ARE IN ACCORDANCE WITH AASHTO 2009. SEE
	DEC STATEMENT, CANNOT USE THIS EXEMPTION FOR LIGHT
	POLES ON PRIVATE PROPERTY (DOT ONLY).

	POLE SPECIFICATIONS TYPE B2 DECLARES 180MPH BUT CALCS
	USE 142.3MPH. NEITHER STATE ULTIMATE OR ASD AS REQUIRED
	BY FBC 1603.4.1. HEIGHT ON 2ND PAGE IS SHOWN AS 30FT
	BUT TEST HEIGHT IS 29 FT; POLE TYPE C IS 20FT BUT TEST
	HT = 14FT. CALCS INCLUDE AN IMPORTANCE FACTOR OF .77
	BUT FIRST PAGE STATES IT COMPLIES WITH 180 MPH DESIGN
	CRITERIA. EXPOSURE CLASSIFICATION NOT INCLUDED. SEE FBC
	1603.1.4 REGARDING WIND DESIGN INFORMATION REQUIRED.

	POLE TYPE B2 WAS USED AS AN EXAMPLE. THE OTHER THREE
	POLES HAVE SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THE CALCULATIONS. SPECS
	FOR THE LIGHT FIXTURES WERE NOT PROVIDED.

	REVISE THE LETTER AND CALCULATIONS AND SUBMIT AS A
	REVISION ALONG WITH THE LIGHT FIXTURE SPECS. THIS IS
	ISSUED AT CONTRACTOR'S RISK.
