• Ms. Jessica Bradley Nelson Worldwide Plan Check Number: B1909-009, First Building Review September 27, 2019 7. Door 110 on Sheet A2.1 has less than a one-foot clearance on the latch side for the push- direction. The Door Schedule on Sheet A6.1 specifies Hardware Group Type G for Door 110, which includes a latch and a closer. The door shall have a minimum 12-inch clearance for the push direction per ICC A117.1-09 Figure 404.2.3.2(b). The door shall be revised to provide and specify the minimum clearance. See IBC Section 1101.2. Energy: 8. The proposed tenant improvement includes constructing a "B"occupancy area inside the existing "S-1"occupancy, with the former being a heated space and the latter being a semi- heated space. Heated spaces within semi-heated spaces shall be insulated the comply with the exterior envelope requirements. See WSEC-15 Section C402.1.1.1. The following comments shall be addressed: a. Several of the wall details on Sheet A8.1 indicate R-38 batt insulation above the ceiling. The drawings shall provide a clear requirement that minimum R-38 continuous insulation shall be provided above all heated spaces, such as in the"Energy Requirements"section of Sheet AN-0 or the"Ceiling Notes"section of Sheet A2.2. b. First Floor Plan 1/A2.1 specifies Wall Type 9 separating the space from the adjacent space to the north. Detail 9/A8.1 shall specify a minimum insulation of R-13 plus R-10 continuous along the office area. See Table C402.1.3. c. First Floor Plan 1/A2.1 shows a concrete wall between Offices 118 and 119. The concrete wall does not have a thermal break with the exterior. The interior furring walls shall specify a minimum insulation of R-13 plus R-10 continuous. The walls should extend the full length of each side of the wall and wrap around the end. See Table C402.1.3. d. The Main Entrance at Reception Room 101 has stepped exterior concrete wall panels furred with non-bearing walls on the interior side. The furring walls do not overlap. The furring walls shall lap sufficiently to provide a minimum thickness of insulation over the ends of the concrete panels. 9. First Floor Plan 1/A2.1 shows the new girts per Plan 1/S1.1 (i.e., "strongbacks" per Key Note 10 on Sheet A2.1). The girts are connected tight to the wall per Plan 1/S1.1, but shown outside the furring wall on Plan 1/A2.1. The girts shall shown tight to the wall, and the furring shall wrap around the girts to provide the required insulation. Note that a girt does not occur at Grid K per Plan 1/S1.1. See IBC Sections 107.2.1 and 1603.1, and WSEC-15 Section C402.1.1.1. Miscellaneous: 10. Details 1/A8.1 and 6/A8.1 both appear to provide top and bottom wall connections for the interior non-bearing walls. It is not clear if the details are redundant or address different conditions. The requirements for the top-of-wall connection in both details is incomplete, especially for Detail 6. The brace size, spacing, and connections at each end shall be specified. The braces and connections shall be adequate to resist out-of-plane loading on the walls per IBC Section 1607.14. Note that Detail 1 appears to rely on transfer of loading through the T- bar of the acoustic ceiling system; the load path should be revised unless shown be analysis to be adequate. See IBC Section 107.2.1 and 1604.1. O3200 Cedar Street 0 425.257.8810 everetteps@everettwa.gov Everett,WA 98201 425.257.8857 fax everettwa.gov/permits age 3of5
