The details indicated that the new headers have been provided for the egress windows at the basement bedrooms. Headers do not appear to be shown in the plans as indicated. 8. The plan dimensions, are not consistent for all levels. Based on a review of building photography, the exterior walls should generally stack from the attic level to the basement. Additional attic and crawl spaces should be shown. Access to these areas should be provided. 9. The exterior framing appears to have been exposed (i.e., original wall finishes replaced or finishes added to previously unfinished framing). The building envelope is required to comply with the insulation requirements of the energy code. 10. It appears the stairway is not original and is therefore required to comply with the code requirements for new construction. The rise, run, and width of the stairs and landing should be stated. Sections through the stairs showing the head clearances should be included. Handrails are required. The barn door in the kitchen providing stair access to the attic level may not comply with landing requirements and need to be modified or removed; at a minimum, the door appears to require safety glazing.
