Mr. Mark Kim Plan Check Number: B2304-015, First Building Review April 7, 2023 Architectural General: 1. The proposed project exceeds the occupant limit for a "B" occupancy classification per IBC Section 303.1.2(1); see additional comments below. The design should be revised to comply with this limit. Alternatively, the space and building will require additional modifications to for conversion to an "A-2" occupancy classification; comments are not being provided for this alternative at this time. Egress: 2. Sheet A102 specifies an occupancy load for the Dining area of 66. However, the area provides seating for a minimum of 60 occupants per IBC Section 1004.6. While part of the seating involves movable chairs, the plan clear indicates the intended use of the space. Additional occupants will occur from standing patrons and employees. The design should be revised to reduce the load to not exceed 49. See IBC Section 303.1.2 and Comment 1 above. 3. Continuing with the previous comment, a maximum occupant load sign limiting the space to 49 occupants should be specified adjacent to the primary entrance to the space. See IBC Section 1004.9. 4. The access route from the east half of the tenant space between the counter and the nearest table should specify a minimum clearance of 55 inches. This provides the minimum 36-inch clear width plus a 19-inch clearance for the movable chairs. The clearance should account for the case that appears to protrude from the front side of the counter. See IBC Sections 1029.9 and 1029.13.1, and the "Accessibility" comments below. 5. The spacing between tables on the north side of the space in the Main Floor Plan on Sheet A102 is required to be at least 12 inches plus 19 inches for the movable chairs on each side (i.e., 50 inches minimum). This typical clearance should be specified in the plan. Note that the clearance currently depicted appears to be less. Based on this and other comments, it appears that at least one table will need to be removed. See IBC Sections 1029.13.1 and 1029.13.1.1. Accessibility: 6. The primary entrance to the tenant space shown in the Main Floor Plan on Sheet A102 is presumed to have both a latch and closer. The door should specify a minimum 12-inch clearance for the latch side of the door. Note that the adjacent table and chair are not allowed to encroach on this clearance. A minimum clearance from the doorjamb to the table edge of 31 inches should be specified, which includes the 19-inch allotment for the movable chairs. See IBC Sections 1101.2 and 1029.13.1, and ICC A117.1-09 Figure 404.2.3.2(b). 7. The access route from the Dining area to the east end of the tenant space is required to be accessible. The minimum route width should be 36 inches. See IBC Section 1101.2 and ICC A117.1-09 Section 403.5. 3200 Cedar Street O 425.257.8810 O everetteps@everettwa.gov Everett, WA 98201 425.257.8857 fax everettwa.gov/permits Page 2 of 4
