Dear Scott,
I have finished the review of the Kevin Snell — Woodshed Apartment drawings
that you have provided for me and have identified the following discrepancies:
1. Please provide 2 handicapped parking spaces complete with access aisles.
2. A handicapped route must be provided from the entrance of each building. It
must connect all buildings, parking, accessible spaces (patio, mail boxes etc.)
and the public way. The route must be built at a 5% (1/20) slope or less,
unless handrails are provided, then it is considered a ramp and must not
exceed 8.33% (1/12) slope. Please identify elevations of the required access
routes on site plan so that handicap access can be reviewed.
3. Change drainage so it does not take place on adjacent properties. Include
elevations for parking, access aisles and easement areas.
4. Asphalt or concrete is required at all vehicle parking and access. This will
include the access easement areas.
5. Compact parking spaces must be in their own row and identified with signs.
6. The 2000 International Building Code (IBC) requires that buildings of this
occupancy and type be of one hour construction if closer than 10' from a
property line. Please either change the building location or provide details of
one hour construction.
7. A fence or a buffer strip is required around the parking area where it is
adjacent to other residential property. Please identify on plans.
8. Call out door sizes on plans. All lower units must be built as "Type B" units
as per the IBC. Type B units are required to have an accessible path
throughout. The entry doors of the lower units must have levered handles.
9. Please provide stair details. Include rise, run, handrail heights, guardrail
heights, headroom and all dimensions.
10. How are the units heated? If a furnace is to be provided, please identify its
location.
11. Page S2 identifies a "173" footing on the foundation plan. The F3 description
on the same page has been crossed out. Please make the necessary changes.
12. Please identify special thickened washers for the anchor bolts as per the IBC.
13. Page A.5 (cross section details) has not been stamped.
14. The foundation on page A.5 is identified as both a concrete and a block type.
Please make the necessary changes.
15. Simpson hangers are identified on page A. 5. The "Main Floor Framing Plan"
on page S2 does not identify these hangers and does not show the rim joists
constructed with a brick ledge as per page A.S. Please make the necessary
changes.
16. Page A.5 identifies 5/8" drywall at the one hour ceilings. Please change to
match the one hour ceiling detail on page S4.
17. Please provide truss details prior to framing inspection.
18. Provide energy calculations as per the 2000 International Energy
Conservation Code (IECC).
19. The Fire Department has reviewed the plans. I have attached a copy of their
report. Please provide the necessary information they have requested.
Please return two sets of revised plans. Let me know if I can be of any further
assistance. If you have any questions, please give me a call at 359-3020 ext. 324.
Sincerely,
Val Christensen
