However, the wall length on Grid F.6 is only 20 feet long. The diaphragm <br /> design should be revised. Alternatively,the diaphragm should be provided with a collector. <br /> Calculations substantiating the design of the collector, including the connection to the shear wall, <br /> should be submitted for review. A detail for the collector connection should be included in the <br /> structural drawings. See IBC Sections 107.2.1, 1604.1, 1604.4, and 1613.1, and ASCE 7-10 <br /> Section 12.10.2.1. <br /> { DCI Response: The diaphragm has been check using a depth equal to the shear wall length. See <br /> updated calculations sheet 0-5. <br /> 8. Design uplift forces on the shear walls are calculated on pages 9 and 10. The shear wall <br /> holdown design has not been provided in the structural calculations. The earthquake component <br /> of the holdown forces exceeds 20% of the total uplift. The earthquake component shall be <br /> increased per the provisions of ACI 318-14 Section 17.2.3.4.3. Calculations substantiating the <br /> holdown design should be submitted for review. Note that the uplift forces have been calculated <br /> using ASD load combinations; LRFD-based loads shall be used to verify the anchorage design. <br /> See IBC Section 1901.2. <br /> DCI Response: Calculations for the anchorage of the shear wall hold down to the footings have been <br /> performed. See updated calculations sheets 0-29 and 0-36 thru 0-40. <br /> Miscellaneous: <br /> 9. Sheet A5.6 show plans and elevations for an elevator. The following comments should be <br /> addressed: <br /> a. The elevator design drawings should be included in the list of deferred submittals in the <br /> Structural General Notes. See IBC Section 107.3.4.1. <br /> b. The design loads for the elevator system, including impact loading, should be specified in the <br /> "Design Criteria and Loads"section of the Structural General Notes. At a minimum, <br /> estimated design loads should be specified for the design, and verified when the elevator <br /> design drawings are submitted for review. See IBC Sections 1603.1.8 and 1607.9.1. <br /> c. The building structure(i.e., elevator shaft and supporting floor framing)that supports <br /> components of the elevator system is included in the current submittal drawings. <br /> Calculations substantiating the design of the structure to support the elevator loads <br /> concurrently with other loads should be submitted for review. The calculations should include <br /> the evaluation of deflection limits per IBC Section 1607.9.1. The design shall consider <br /> concurrent multi-directional loading as determined by the elevator manufacturer. See IBC <br /> Sections 1604.2 and 1605. <br /> d. The connections between the elevator guide rails and the structural framing are typically the <br /> responsibility of the engineer-of-record for the building system. At a minimum, connection <br /> details between the rail bracket and structural framing are required. Calculations and details <br /> for the elevator connections to the structural framing should be submitted for review. The <br /> design shall consider concurrent multi-directional loading as determined by the elevator <br /> manufacturer. The required locations and maximum spacing for the connection points should <br /> be specified in the structural drawings. See IBC Section 107.2.1 and 1604.4. <br /> e. The structural calculations shall be performing using the appropriate load combinations <br /> including live and seismic loading per IBC Section 1605.3. In addition, documentation shall <br /> be submitted verifying the nominal loads have been increased for impact effects per IBC <br /> Section 1607.9.1. <br /> DCI Response: <br /> a.
