• zG, F 925 Fourth Avenue <br /> Suite 2400 Memo <br /> Seattle,WA 98104 <br /> 72066239414 <br /> F 206 623 7868 Date August 14,2019 <br /> Project No. S23240 <br /> ZIMMER GUNSUL FRASCA ARCHITECTS LLP Project Name PRMCE—Colby Campus <br /> Pharmacy Replacement <br /> age No. 5 of <br /> b. Infill detail SSK-001 is designed for maximum opening size of 3'-9"x 3'-8"and would be acceptable for use in any <br /> infills smaller in size. Infills shown are for an existing dumbwaiter shaft.There are no above infills as part of this <br /> project. <br /> c. Calculations for the design of the infill are included in MKA's supplemental package. This calculation shows the <br /> design dead and live floor loads. The code concentrated live load of 1,000 lbs applied over a 2.5'x2.5'area would not <br /> govern the design. Using 80 psf over the full panel size results in a greater cumulative load. See sheets S1.01 and <br /> S1.02 for loading information <br /> d. The structural bays that would receive the infills are framed and reinforced identically to bays without the openings <br /> and would not have any greatly diminished strength as a result. The infill is thinner than the original slab and <br /> therefore lighter overall. <br /> e. See sheet A0.02 for required Special Inspections—Moved to sheet S1.01 in follow-up comment. <br /> The following represents a statement of special inspections relevant to the scope of work: <br /> a. IBC Table 1705.3—Items 1 (reinforcement), 5 (design mix), 8 (concrete curing),and 12(formwork) — <br /> periodic <br /> b. IBC Table 1705.3—Items 4b (mechanical anchors),6 (concrete tests),and 7 (concrete placement) — <br /> continuous <br /> c. AISC Table N6.1 —steel deck—continuous <br /> d. AISC Table N6.1 —steel elements—continuous <br /> (Comment#1 -07/17/2019) <br /> la.The detail should be revised as follows: <br /> i. Infills are required at three locations per Sheet A1.01. I recommend showing the third locate non the partial floor <br /> plan on Sheet S1.02 for consistency. <br /> ii. The direction of the deck span should be specified (e.g.,parallel to shortest dimension of opening). <br /> iii. The depth of the WWF reinforcement should be specified (e.g.,center of slab). <br /> iv. The minimum concrete strength should be specified. <br /> v. The L4 steel grade should be specified(presumed to be A36). <br /> vi. The detail appears to specify (3) anchors for each angle. Recommend providing a maximum anchor spacing in the <br /> event that the actual openings are larger. <br /> vii. The anchors appear to require a minimum 4" edge distance from the bottom of the concrete slab per the structural <br /> calculations. This minimum distance shall be specified in the detail. <br /> viii. Due to the proximity of the anchor to the bottom of the slab and the likely lack of confining reinforcement, the use <br /> of an adhesive anchor in lieu of the specified expansion anchor is recommended. <br /> ix. Note 5 directs the contractor to verify use of existing materials in place of new materials. This should be the <br /> responsibility of the engineer-of-record,not the contractor. <br /> 1c.Remove structural calculations from the plan set and submit a package (1 copy is sufficient)with the revised drawings. <br /> le. (Response not provided) State the design live loads for the infill design in the notes for the infill section on Sheet S1.02. <br /> 1f. (Response labeled as "le"in the letter) State the special inspection requirements on Sheet S1.02. The reference to Table <br /> 1705.3 Item 4a should be changed to Item 4b for mechanical anchors (not adhesive anchors). The narrative as stated in the <br /> response letter is sufficient as-is for this project for the following edits: <br /> i. "...Items 1 (reinforcement),5 (design mix), 8 (concrete curing),and 12 (formwork)..." <br /> ii. "...Items 4b (mechanical anchors), 6 (concrete tests), and 7 (concrete placement)..." <br /> Response: <br /> 1a. i. All three infills are now shown on SSK-001. See sheet S1.01. <br />
