5. The exterior stairs and walkways should be designed for a minimum of 100 pounds live , load non-reducible. See IBC 2015 Table 1607.1. 6. On Detail 3/S3.0, a transfer condition is being proposed on this project. Please verify with calculations that the beam cand support the gravity loadings as well as the force couple (Tension/Compression) load effects associated from lateral loads of the shear walls. Please include factors such as overstrength if the governing lateral force is seismic when checking the beam. 7. The built up column of (2) 2x6's was checked in the permit calculations and then up- sized on the drawings to be (3) 2x6's or (1) 4x6 wood post. The permit calculations do not appear to account for the force couple associated with lateral forces. Please revise calculations to include the gravity load contributions as well as vertical loads resulting from lateral loads. All codes cited refer to the 2015 International Building Code (IBC), the 2015 International Fire Code (IFC), the 2015 International Mechanical Code (IMC), and the 2015 Washington State Energy Code (WSEC), as amended by the State of Washington and adopted by the City of Everett. The current IBC referenced standard for accessible design is the 2009 "Accessible and Usable Buildings and Facilities" (ICC/ANSI A117.1). Federal ADA regulations and standards may be more restrictive. These comments address building issues only. Additional revisions or additions may be required by other departments (such as Utilities, Traffic, Planning or Fire). All required submittals must be of sufficient detail and information to ensure that the proposed structure will be constructed in compliance with all adopted codes.
