The following is a corresponding itemized response <br /> and clarification to the structural review comments. Please reference the attached revised structural <br /> drawings and/or calculations. <br /> 1. GKSE understands that the permit applicant will be providing separate plumbing and <br /> mechanical permit applications. <br /> 2. GKSE understands that the permit applicant will be providing an architectural floor plan <br /> noting appropriate information for project context and requirements. <br /> 3. Reference attached new structural sheet S2 which contains project structural notes as <br /> requested. <br /> 4. Reference attached supplemental structural calculations addressing concerns in item#4 thru <br /> #6. As we discussed on the phone,we have provided supplemental calcs demonstrating that <br /> the storefront beam and connections are adequate for gravity and lateral loads. Please note <br /> that GKSE does not know the construction of the embedded portion of the embed connection <br /> for the storefront beam as it has been embedded in concrete since original construction of the <br /> building. However,the repairs for this project do not change the load magnitudes nor load <br /> path from its pre-fire conditions,and no distress was observed at the time of our site visit. <br /> Also,we have added a retrofit top clip to the storefront beam connection to the concrete to <br /> address any beam connection stability and/or wind load capacity at this location. For your <br /> reference,GKSE will be emailing a suite of pictures of the existing damaged storefront to <br /> assist in your review and provide context for how small the repair area is at the storefront in <br /> terms of loading,configuration,etc. <br /> 5.
