We have eliminated all the railings and their <br />associated extension conflicts based on IBC 1012.8. <br />6. Continuing with the previous comment, the handrails appear to be missing extensions in several places. In <br />addition, extensions may impact the required clearances for egress and doorways, including accessibility <br />clearance. Notable conflicts potentially occur at the top of the jury box ramp, the top of the east ramp in <br />Corridor 3510, and the top and bottom of the west ramp in Corridor 3510. See IBC Sections 1005 and 1014.8. <br />SLAM RESPONSE: ALL new ramps are 1:12 and only rise 6 inches. IBC 1012.8 requires handrails only for <br />ramps greater than six inches to comply with 1014. We have eliminated alt the railings and their <br />associated extension conflicts based on IBC 1012.8. <br />7. The stairway accessing the judge's bench in Room 3D should be a minimum width of 36 inches. See IBC <br />Section 1011.2 Exception 1. <br />SLAM RESPONSE: Sheet IF-427, Rev 1 dated 7/20/2022 illustrates revised stair dimension to achieve 36 <br />inch minimum width. <br />8. The Lighting Plan on Sheet E-323 should include a note specifying a minimum go -minute uninterrupted <br />supply power for the exit signs per IBC Section 1013.6.3. <br />SLAM RESPONSE: Note has been added to Sheet E-323, Rev 1 dated 7/20/2022. The emergency panel <br />serving the exit signs is backed up by an existing emergency generator that is compliant with the <br />requirements defined in IBC Section 1013.6,3. [Stantec] <br />g. Emergency means -of -egress illumination should be specified for Room 3D. The drawings should include a <br />note specifying a minimum go -minute uninterrupted supply power per IBC Section 1008.3 and 1008.3.4• <br />SLAM RESPONSE: Note has been added to Sheet E-323, Rev 1 dated 7/20/2022. The emergency panel <br />serving the emergency means -of -egress lighting (Lighting with 'EM' tag) is backed up by an existing <br />emergency generator that is compliant with the requirements defined in IBC Section 1008.3 and <br />1008.3.4. [Stantec] <br />Accessibility <br />10. Room 3D in Plan 2/IF-423 is required to have at least two accessible egress doors. It appears that at least <br />one of the south doors must be accessible. It is anticipated that the doors will have both latches and <br />closers. One or both doors should comply with the maneuvering clearances of ICC A117.1-09 Section <br />404.2.3• See IBC Sections loog and 1101.2. <br />SLAM RESPONSE: Sheet IF-423, Rev 1 dated 7/20/2022 illustrates revised courtroom entry doors to <br />provide maneuvering clearances. <br />ii. The new west ramp in Corridor 3510 is required to have a minimum 5-foot landing at the bottom per ICC <br />A117.1-09 Section 405.7. An existing partial wall conflicts with the ramp length. See IBC Section 1101.2. In <br />addition, please note the following: <br />a. The end of the ramp results in potential conflicts with the existing door in the north wall and the <br />required handrail. <br />b. ICC A117.1-09 Section 405.7.5 prohibits the required landing from overlapping with the doorway, though <br />the landing and doorway maneuvering clearance are allowed to overlap. It is noted that the door <br />doesn't swing into the landing area, and that the conflicting doorway is located at the bottom landing. <br />This condition should be reviewed and revised as needed. <br />SLAM RESPONSE: ALL new ramps are 1:12 and only rise 6 inches. IBC 1012.8 requires handrails only for <br />ramps greater than six inches to comply with 1014. We have eliminated all the railings and their <br />associated extension conflicts based on IBC 1012.8. <br />12. Elevations for Bathrooms 3508 and 35og are provided on Sheet IF-428.
