James Bronder PE,SE,Reviewer—Permit Services <br /> RE:Plan Check,NO:B2203-043-7007 Seaway Blvd—Correction Notice#[...] <br /> j July 28,2022 <br /> Page . ' t , . <br /> The ductgleelement intended to yield is the steel plate in the connection between panels shown on <br /> detail 6/54 1. The connection has been revised to reduce the plate thickness to ensure yielding at <br /> i ;_ ti ::.design loads.The welded headed studs and other non yielding elements of the connection have <br /> 4eenn designed to 1.5*Sy.See revised detail 6/54.1, revised Grid N wall elevation on sheet 3.2,and <br /> supplemental calculation package pages 9 thru 14. <br /> 3. The steel brace frames are identified as Special Steel Concentrically Braced Frames.On the <br /> permit calculations, it appears that the sizing of the system was performed utilizing the load <br /> combinations of IBC 1605. However,AISC 341-16 Sec F2.3 also requires validating that the system <br /> is capable of withstanding the capacity-based design provisions. Please indicate on the <br /> calculations where this analysis was performed or provide additional calculations verifying that <br /> the proposed system meets these requirements.AISC 341-16 Sec F2.3. <br /> The braced frame elements have been designed to meet the required of AISC 341-16 Sec F2.3. <br /> Base plates,gusset plates, and columns have been designed to withstand the full expected <br /> capacity of the braces.See calculation package dated March 1,2022,sheets 73 thru 75 for gusset <br /> plate calculations.See supplemental calculation package sheets 15 thru 26 for column and base <br /> plate design. <br /> 4. Please provide design calculations for the required drag strut members and strut connections <br /> indicated on plan Sheet S2.1a/b and detail 6/S5.1 as these appear to be missing from the permit <br /> calculation package. It is unclear from the RISA model provided on page 68 of the permit <br /> calculations whether the overstrength factor is captured in the Basic Load Case or is overstrength <br /> factor need to be amplified in the Load Combination as the Om*EQ load combination only <br /> appears to use a factor of 1.0. Please clarify. <br /> Calculations have been provided,see supplemental calculation package pages 27 thru 63. <br /> 5. Verify braced framed sliding capacity per phone call on July 26,2022. <br /> Per the phone call on July 26,2022 with Travis Michaud from our office, the sliding capacity of the <br /> foundation at the braced frames on grid F.9&G.1.has been checked.As discussed, the grade <br /> beam provided some passive and sliding resistance. The grade beam transfers some shear to the <br /> slab-on-grade thru shear transfer of hooked#4 bars at 24"o.c.See supplemental calculation page <br /> 64. <br /> * * * * * <br /> Please feel free to call me at 206-957-3900 if you have any questions regarding our responses. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Quantum Consulting Engineers, LL <br /> 741/' <br /> Jo iley, P.E.,S.E. <br /> Principal <br /> QUANTUM CONSULTING ENGINEERS-1511 THIRD AVENUE SUITE 323-SEATTLE WASHINGTON 98101 IT 206.957.3900 <br /> www.quantumce.corn <br />
