City of Everett CITY QF EVERETT 3200 Cedar Street Permit ✓ ervice# Everett WA 98201 Plan Check No. C0106-027 Mr. Heilman, I have reviewed your comments in your review letter dated July 27, 2001 for the Sievers residence. The following responses are as requested. l . A retaining wall detail is included on drawing A l . 1. The retaining wall is in compliance with section 39.150 in the zoning code. 2. The deck has been revised to reflect this comment. See drawings. 3. A note has been added to the drawings to reflect the use of R-19 insulation in all below grade walls in conditioned spaces. 4. Safety glass has been added to the exterior elevations. SG denotes it on the exterior elevations. 5. A note has been added to the exterior elevations denoticg that the brick veneer is to be installed per UBC 1403.6. 6 Washington State Ventilation and Air Quality Codes have been added to the plans. See drawing A3.2 7. All of the windows in the house will be replaced. All of the exterior walls on the first floor will get R-19 insulation. The major portion of the exterior walls in the basement will be opened to accommodate the shear wall sheathing, when this occurs they will get new R-19 insulation. The entire roof structure will be new and thus it will receive R-30 insulation. I believe the prescriptive method as shown on drawing A3.1 meets the current Washington State Energy Code since the entire house is being brought up to those standards. 8. The U-value of the windows will be as shown in the WSEC table, or Lion IV on 14rawing A3.1. 9. See the revised attached calculation sheet #4. 10. EQ. 30-15 is in reference to buildings with combined systems. We are proposing a single system (shear wall). 11. Top plates are to be strapped w/ (2) MST48 straps at each splice.

Use GLB 3 1/8 x 10'/z. See sheet 1 of calculations. Drawing A2.3 has also been revised to reflect this. 15. The roof loading to the existing headers remains unchanged. 16. The footings will be doweled to the wall with #5 x 1'-6" dowels @16" o.c. This note was added to drawing A2.1. 17.
