Ms. Melissa Martorano Ware Malcomb Plan Check Number: B2304-062, First Building Review April 19, 2023 Architectural 1. Sheet I000 specifies the Construction Type as"II-B". The type should be"V-B" based on a review of the available records. Alternatively, documentation should be submitted substantiating the"II-B"classification. See IBC Sections 602.1, 602.2, and 602.5. 2. The north arrow on the plans points upward on the sheets. The Plan North direction should be oriented to point right. See IBC Section 107.2.1. 3. Doors 101E, 131, and 138 should be reviewed to verify they provide the required minimum latch-side clearance. The minimum clearance should be specified at each location. See IBC Section 1101.2 and ICC A117.1-09 Figure 404.2.3.2. 4. The project involves a Level 3 Alternation as defined by IEBC Section 604.1. The building exterior envelope should comply with the requirements for new construction per WSEC Section C402. Details for the components of the exterior envelop should be included. Note that portions of the building may not be feasible to reconfigure, including but not limited to slab insulation and thermal isolation per WSEC Section C402.2.6. Additional insulation may be provided complying with Section C402.1.5 in lieu of modifying these components. 5. Continuing with the previous comment, the project involves removing finishes and exposing the cavities for the exterior furred walls and ceiling/roof. Insulation should be specified in the exposed cavities as required by WSEC Sections C402 and C503.1. See IBC Section 101.4.7 and IEBC Section 907.1. Structural 1. The project included demolition of the interior walls. The east-west wall extending from the building corner, separating the north and south portions of the building, appears to be a structural masonry wall. See IBC Sections 101.4.7, 107.2.1, 1603.1, 1604.1, 1604.2, 1604.4, and 1613.1, and IEBC Section 806. The following comments should be addressed: a. The wall appears to be load bearing and originally supported part of the original roof. A new roof was constructed circa 2010 under Permit No. B1007-047. However, it is not clear that the entire existing roof was demolished; portions may remain. Structural modifications may be required. b. The wall appears to be part of the lateral system. Removal of the wall reduced the capacity of the vertical lateral system. In addition, this will increase the span and loads in the roof diaphragm. Additional modifications to the diaphragm at the re-entrant building corner will also be required. See ASCE 7-16 Chapter 12. 2. Continuing with the previous two comments, structural drawings specifying modifications should be included in the drawing set. The drawings should be sealed and signed by a professional engineer licensed in the state of Washington. Calculations substantiating the design should be submitted for review. See IBC Section 107.1 and RCW 18.43. ©7 3200 Cedar Street © 425.257.8810 ;;� everetteps@everettwa.gov Everett,WA 98201 425.257.8857 fax everettwa.gov/permits Page 2 of 3
