EVERETT <br />September 14, 2021 <br />WASHINGTON <br />Eric Koch <br />eric@padgi.com <br />8383 1581h Ave NE <br />STE 250 <br />Redmond, WA 98052 <br />Owner: SERJ Developments, LLC <br />Project Address: 10330 Evergreen Way <br />Plan Check No: B2106-011 <br />RE: Building Permit Review Letter <br />Dear Eric, <br />In response to the application for a building permit, the plans have been <br />examined and you are advised that revisions may be necessary before a permit <br />can be issued. Please review and respond to the comments below. <br />ARCHITECTURAL <br />No additional comments. <br />STRUCTURAL <br />1. The permit calculations indicate a weight take -off page that indicates that 8" <br />grouted CMU walls are 45 psf (which appears to be a weight take off value for <br />6" CMU walls with grouted cells receiving reinforcement at 48" oc or masonry <br />veneer). The 04100 concrete masonry general notes on Sheet S1.0 indicate <br />that all cells should be grouted (as well as detail 10/S6.1). Please clarify the <br />construction notes as it appears that weight take off design calculations may <br />conflict with the general construction notes for concrete masonry and affect <br />subsequent lateral force resisting system design conditions such as base shear, <br />V. IBC 106.1.1. <br />2. Please verify that steel straps as indicated in details 1/S9.1 and 2/S9.1 are <br />designed to the 1.4x force requirements per ASCE 7-16 Sec 12.11.2.2.2 as these <br />calculations appear to be missing from the permit calculations. <br />PERMIT SERVICES 3. Please identify the CMU/BMU lateral force resisting system elements on the <br />plans in a similar manner to the wood shear walls as indicated per Sheet S3.0 as <br />3200 Cedar Street it is unclear which masonry walls are intended to receive seismic detailing. <br />Everett, WA 98201 Permit calculations appear to indicate that approximately 12'-0" of wall is <br />425.257.8810 intended to be part of the lateral force resisting system. Please clarify on the <br />425.257.8857 fax plans and cut details indicated on S6.1 for clarity. IBC 106.1.1. <br />® everetteps@everettwa.gov 4. Please verify that proposed CMU/BMU walls can resist out -of -plane forces <br />everettwa.gov/permits per ASCE 7-16 12.11.1. Please provide additional calculations and revise <br />drawings as required. <br />Page 1 of 2 <br />
