Your application has been received and a permit set up. However,the submitted documents are not sufficient for us to perform a review at this time. The Planning Department has also determined that the project is not sufficient to perform a review;they will issue a comment letter separately. Construction-level documents need to be submitted for review. Information is attached to provide guidance. Preliminary comments are provided below to assist in preparing the drawings, but these are not intended to provide a comprehensive review. Depending on your experience with the model codes and preparing documents, we recommend consulting with a design professional to assist you. 1. Complete construction-level drawings are required to perform a review. The drawings should be prepared using recognized drafting standards. The drawings should include elevations, sections, details, and construction notes as required to clearly show the required work. See IRC Section R106.1.1. The plans should clearly delineate between existing and new walls. Walls to be demolished should be shown; a separate existing/demolition plan is recommended to clearly show all work. The locations and sizes of doors and windows should be shown 2. Demolished walls should be verified to be non-bearing and identified as such on the drawings. If bearing walls are removed, framing plans should be provided. New framing should be provided to provide complete load paths. Existing and new framing should comply with the IRC, or an engineered design may be performed per IRC Section R301.1.3. 3. Details for wall construction should be provided. Top and bottom connections to the existing structure should be included. 4. The drawings should include a fastener schedule per IRC Table R602.3(1). 5. Based on review of the City of Everett and Snohomish County records,the garage on the west side of the building was converted from a carport sometime after 1994. The conversion does not appear to have been performed with a building permit We are not requiring action at this time; this is only being brought to your attention. However,the garage is required to satisfy the following: a. Provide minimum fire-resistive construction per IRC Table R302.6. This construction should be continuous to either a GWB lid in the garage or to the roof sheathing;the attic space over the house should be completely separated. b. Provide a door into the dwelling per IRC Section R302.5.1. The door shall not directly access a bedroom. 6. The locations of smoke and CO alarms should be shown. Alarms should comply with IRC Sections R314 and R315. Smoke alarms should be hardwired, interconnected, and provided with battery back-up power. 7. The new bedroom should be provided with an egress window per Section R310.2 8. Continuing with the previous comment, details for reframing the exterior wall should be provided if an existing opening is altered (i.e., increased or decreased) or a new opening is created. 9. Provide dimensions and clearances for the bathroom fixtures per Section R307. 1
