Dear Dean,
I have reviewed the plans for the Randy Webb Apartments and have identified the
following discrepancies, additions yr questions:
1. Identify that setbacks are to eaves.
2. Identify right-of-way lines.
3. Get with John Millar the City of Rexburg Public Works Director and work
out a Development Agreement.
4. Provide details of handicap parking space aisles where they connect to
sidewalk and accessible route into the buildings.
5. Identify trash facilities.
6. Provide minimum foundation reinforcement as per Section 1914.3.5 of the
1997 Uniform Building Code (UBC).
7. All units on the lower level must be constructed as "Type B" units as per
Section 1103.1.9.3 of the UBC. Identify as such. Please identify grab bar
backing, accessible thresholds and all other accessible features.
8. Please identify smoke detectors as per the UBC and 2A-10BC fire
extinguishers in each apartment unit. Smoke detectors are required in
each bedroom
9. Identify that bedroom windows must meet egress as per UBC Section
310.4. Identify the type of windows being provided, The plans show 4'
wide by 3' high windows. Sliders in this size will not meet the minimum
requirements of the UBC. If the windows are a casement variety where
the whole window opens, please identify a maximum sill height. If the
windows are set at header height the sill will probably not meet code.
10. Please identify firewall construction, including draftstops if used. Unit
separation must be maintained from foundation to roof sheathing. Please
provide details in crawl space and attic also.
11. Please identify fire separation at the floors between units. Engineered
joists have their own requirements for fire protection and are not listed in
the UBC. Please provide this information on the plans. One layer of
drywall will not meet manufactures minimum fire requirements for
engineered floor joists. Please obtain manufacture's information for fire
resistance.
12. The Building Section on sheet A-5 identifies ''/z" drywall on the upper
ceiling. When trusses are placed on 24" centers, 5/8" drywall is required
on ceilings.
13. On sheet A-5 the Building Section identifies that the floor sheathing is to
be fastened with screws. This practice is not typical. Is it a structural
requirement? If it is required, I will enforce it in the field.
14. Please identify crawl space vent locations to meet requirements of the
UBC. Also identify attic ventilation to meet requirements of the UBC.
15. Please submit a copy of your plans to the State of Idaho Electrical Bureau.
16. I have attached a copy of the Fire Department review to the back of this
document. Please resolve any issues identified by them.
Please provide me with 2 new copies of any corrected plans. If you have any
questions, please give me a call at 359-3020 ext. 324.
