Ms. Stephanie Lofquist <br /> Gallagher Construction <br /> Plan Check Number: BW2011-004, First Building Review <br /> March 3, 2020 <br /> 11. Each dwelling should be provided with a system supply hot water per IRC Section R306.4. The <br /> location and type of system for the Main Level should be specified in the drawings. Seismic <br /> restraints should be specified for tank water heaters per IRC Section M1307.2. <br /> Structural <br /> 1. The proposed modifications to the Basement Level appear to modify existing load bearing walls <br /> and posts at this level. Structural modifications at this level should be clarified. If modifications <br /> have occurred, structural framing plans for the structure should be provided demonstrating that <br /> the modified load paths comply with the IRC. Alternatively, structural calculations <br /> substantiating the framing may be submitted per Section R301.1.3. See Section R301.1. <br /> 2. The exterior wall openings (i.e., doors and windows) for the Basement Level appear to be new. <br /> Framing details for the new opening should be submitted for review. The details should specify <br /> headers and studs per Sections R602.7 and R602.7.5. Framing fasteners should be specified <br /> per Table R602.3(1). <br /> This review has been performed for general compliance with the building codes as adopted and <br /> amended by the state of Washington and the city of Everett. Corrections and comments made <br /> during the review process do not relieve the project from compliance with code and permit <br /> requirements. The designers-of-record are responsible for a complete design in accordance with <br /> the laws of the state of Washington. <br /> If you have any questions or require additional clarification, please contact us. <br /> Respectfully, <br /> Drew Martin, P.E., S.E. <br /> Associate Engineer/ Commercial Plans Examiner <br /> (425)257-8813 <br /> dmartin@everettwa.gov <br /> S:\BMartin\2020\BW2011-004_R1.docx <br /> 3200 Cedar Street © 425.257.8810 O everetteps@everettwa.gov <br /> Everett,WA 98201 425.257.8857 fax everettwa.gov/permits <br /> Page 3 of 3 <br />
