review. An itemized response letter stating how each comment has been addressed should be included with the drawing. Additional revised documentation, including but not limited structural calculations and other supporting documentation, should be submitted as required. The following comments reference email correspondence from Capital Architects Group dated 11/04/2022 where indicated. Comments 1. The currently proposed project involves modifications in a space that is currently subject to work under the separate Permit No. B2104-064. The permit was issued for construction on 06/24/2021. The listed owner is Zap Energy, Inc. The Existing Floor Plan on Sheet A2.1 is not consistent with the plans shown in the previously issued permit. The current drawings should be revised for consistency. See IBC Section 107.2.1. 2. The email dated 11/01/2022 states that additional changes have been requested by the owner. The drawings should be revised as needed. See IBC Section 107.2.1. 3. The project involves converting existing unconditioned space to conditioned space. The response provided in the email dated 11/04/2022 stating the converted space is currently conditioned is not correct. The space is stated as unconditioned in the drawings for Permit No. B2104-064. The space does not appear to include the required insulation to qualify as conditioned,which is consistent with the documented history. The following comments should be addressed: a. The new envelope for the converted space should be insulated to comply with the exterior wall envelope requirements of WSEC Section C402. b. A schedule of energy credits should be included in the drawings complying with Section C406. The envelope requirements should be revised where required based on the selected credits. 4. The existing door on Grid H between the existing and new office spaces should comply with the requirements for recessed doors per ICC A117.1-09 Section 404.2.3.5. Based on a review of the drawings, it appears that the door will comply with these requirements. A note should be included for clarity stating that the recess on either side shall not exceed 8 inches measured from the door face to the wall face on either side. Please contact me if you have questions. Thank you. Drew Martin, P.E.,S.E.
