This email will serve as the review letter. The <br /> comments below should be addressed. An itemized response letter stating how each comment has been addressed <br /> should be included with the drawing. Additional revised documentation, including but not limited structural calculations <br /> and other supporting documentation,should be submitted as required. <br /> Two revised full-sized hard-copies of the drawings should be submitted for review. However, based on the comments <br /> and pending the responses,we may be able to amend the existing submitted drawings (e.g.,tape in revised and <br /> additional details, etc.). This can be discussed further as needed; please copy or attach this email for future reference as <br /> this is not our typical procedure. <br /> Comments <br /> 1. The proposed work includes suspended equipment exceeding 20 lbs. This equipment requires <br /> independent support and seismic bracing. Note that Detail 2/M3.2 does not provide detailed <br /> requirements and only addresses suspension of the heat pumps;the fans also require support and <br /> bracing. Details should be included in the drawings. Calculations substantiating the design should be <br /> submitted for review. The design should comply with ASCE 7-16 Chapter 13. See IBC Section 1613.1. <br /> 2. The proposed work includes replacement of existing suspended units with new units, including but not limited <br /> to the heat pumps,that significantly exceed the weight of the existing units. The following comments should be <br /> addressed: <br /> a. Calculations evaluating the strength of the structure supporting the units in addition to existing loads <br /> (e.g., self-weight, snow, etc.), including but not limited to joists and supporting beams and columns, <br /> should be submitted for review. See IBC Section 1604.1 and 1604.4. <br /> b. Details for the installation of the units should be submitted for review. <br /> c. Continuing with the previous comment, an additional Building permit application must be submitted if <br /> structural modifications are required. Minor modifications such as penetrations through and blocking of <br /> the roof sheathing to create small duct openings may be included in the Mechanical permit <br /> details. Note that if a Building permit application is required,the Mechanical permit cannot be issued <br /> until the Building permit is approved. <br /> Please let me know if you have questions. <br /> Drew Martin, P.E.,S.E. <br /> LiAssociate Engineer—Commercial Plans Examiner I Permit Services <br /> 425.257.8810 13200 Cedar Street, 2"d Floor, Everett,WA 98201 <br /> EVERETT Phone Hours: M/W/T: 8 am - 12 pm &1 pm 3 pm;Tu: 1:00pm-3:00pm <br /> everettwa.gov/permits I Facebook I Twitter <br /> Note:Emails and attachments sent to and from the City of Everett are public records and may be subject to disclosure pursuant to the Public <br /> Records Act. <br /> 1 <br />
