Permit #: B2405-062, First Building Review <br />May 30, 2024 <br />Submittal documents should contain sufficient information and detail to review the proposed project for <br />compliance with the adopted building codes. Upon submittal of the revised documents, your application <br />will be given priority and the review will recommence. <br />General (Reviewer: Anita Chen) <br />1. (IRC R4504.4.2 Increased Structural Loads and R106.1.) The documents submitted were two photos of <br />the existing deck. This is not sufficient information to evaluate the scope of work and the impact of the <br />new load on the existing structure (deck). <br />2. (IRC 105.2, IRC R327.1 and Washington Swimming Pool and Spa Code (ISPSC) 2021 Chapter 9) Please <br />provide information on the spa/hot tub including type, the total filled weight (also called dead load — <br />how much the spa weighs with water in it), dimensions, and depth of water. All this information can be <br />found in the manufacturer's specifications of the spa or hot tub that you propose to add. (This helps us <br />determine which code the hot tub/spa will fall under or if it is exempt.) <br />3. Please provide the dimensions of the deck, including the height above the ground. <br />4. Please show where the tub will be located --distances from the edge of hot tub to the edge of the deck <br />and to the building. Is the hot tub sitting on the ground or on the deck? <br />5. (IF THE TUB/SPA IS ON THE GROUND): <br />a. Please provide information on what the tub is sitting on, including but not limited to the <br />material (e.g. concrete slab or wood deck), construction, the dimensions, the height, and <br />location. <br />b. Please provide information on what will be removed or demolished to accommodate the new <br />hot tub/spa, including location, type of removed structural members and decking. <br />6. (IF THE TUB/SPA IS ON THE EXISTING DECK): <br />a. Please provide information on the support members for the deck (type of decking, the size and <br />spacing of the joists, size and location of the beams, and the size and location of the posts). <br />b. Please provide information on the post and footing types of the deck. <br />c. Please provide information on how the deck is connecting to the building. (This is usually by lag <br />bolts to a ledger or by hangers.) Please also provide their sizes and location. <br />7. Please provide information on any new and/or replaced items (e.g. decking, joists, beams or posts). <br />Please show any additional structure that will be added to the deck (railing, steps, raised deck, etc.) <br />(Anything that you propose to build related to the hot tub/spa.) <br />8. (IRC R301.1.3 and IRC R4504.4.2) The project may require a structural engineer if the loads exceed the <br />prescriptive performance loads provided in Chapter 3 and the IRC. <br />9. (The scope of your project may also require plumbing and electrical permits, which are separate permits <br />and are not covered by this building permit application.) <br />3200 Cedar Street © 425.257.8810 O permitservices@everettwa.gov <br />Everett, WA 98201 425.257.8857 fax everettwa.gov/permits <br />Page 2 of 3 <br />
