Ms. Joanne Coghlan <br /> Plan Check Number: B2003-040, First Building Review <br /> April 8, 2020 <br /> Architectural <br /> 1. The proposed project appears to be located at 5208 S 2nd Avenue. The project address should <br /> be verified and the construction drawings revised as needed. Note that this comment is not <br /> duplicated for other disciplines, and should be applied to all drawings in the submittal. See IBC <br /> Section 501.2. <br /> 2. The construction drawings specify replacement of the existing bridge with a new aluminum <br /> bridge. The existing guards shown at each end of the bridge on Sheet A-1.0 are presumed to <br /> have been connected to the original bridge, but are not connected for the replacement bridge. <br /> The following comments should be addressed: <br /> a. Details showing the interface of the existing and bridge guards should be provided in the <br /> drawings. The guards should comply with IBC Section 1015.4. <br /> b. The guard ends that are not positively connected to the bridge structure should be modified <br /> to comply with IBC Section 1607.8.1. Details modifying the guards and their connections to <br /> the supporting structures should be provided in the construction drawings. Calculations <br /> substantiating the design should be submitted for review. <br /> c. Continuing with the previous comment, if connections are provided between the deck <br /> guards and the bridge,they should be provided with isolation joints similar to Detail E2 of <br /> the bridge drawings. Calculations substantiating that the joints comply with ASCE 7-10 <br /> Section 12.12.3. See IBC Section 1613.1. <br /> Structural <br /> 1. Structural special inspections are required for this project. The"Statement on Special <br /> Inspections"in the Structural General Notes on Sheet S1.1 stating that special inspections are <br /> not required should be revised. The statement should include a table listing each type of <br /> special inspection and shall specify the extent of each inspection(e.g.,continuous, periodic) per <br /> IBC Section 1704.3.1. See IBC Sections 107.1, 1704.2.3 and 1704.3. Required inspections <br /> include but are not limited to: <br /> a. Concrete post-installed anchors per IBC Table 1705.3(4). <br /> b. Steel construction per IBC Section 1705.2.1 and AISC 360-10 Chapter N. <br /> c. Aluminum construction per IBC Section 2002.1 and AA ADM 1-15. <br /> 2. Continuing with the previous comment,the project appears to include work that will be <br /> performed on the premises of fabricators'shops. Special inspections are required to be <br /> performed by the fabricators unless they are registered and approved to perform work without <br /> special inspections. The Structural General Notes on Sheet S1.1 should be revised to list work <br /> being performed by approved fabricators. Work not being performed by approved fabricators <br /> should be added to the list of special inspections. See IBC Sections 1704.2.5, 1704.2.5.1, and <br /> Section 1704.5 Items 1 and 2. <br /> 3. The bridge is connected to the existing building with an eccentrically-loaded joint per Detail <br /> 3/S3.1. The joint will induce torsional loads into the supporting beam. Calculations <br /> substantiating the resistance of the beam and other stabilizing framing should be submitted for <br /> review.
