Mr. John Day <br /> Slichter Ugrin Architecture <br /> Plan Check Number: B1709-015, First Review <br /> April 27, 2018 <br /> fillet weld. 3/16"fillet is used. The weld all around symbol or 2" weld tag provide sufficient <br /> weld strength as detailed. <br /> b. Continuing with the previous comment, the members appear to overlap and create skewed <br /> connection surfaces. The base of the bracing appears to sandwich two diagonal members <br /> at the interior end while the exterior end connects to a single member. Bracing members <br /> appear to stack and prevent direct contact for some memberswith the chord members. <br /> The design of the framing, and in particular the connections, should be reviewed and <br /> revised as needed to improve the overall integrity of the brace design. Gaps in framing <br /> shall not exceed the limits of AWS D1.1-11 for fillet welds. 1/16" is allowed. Please see <br /> supplemental calculations and response above to 11.a. <br /> 12. The parapet appears to be laterally-braced by intersecting walls at the corners of the building. <br /> Details and calculations for the corner construction, including connection to and support by the <br /> roof structure, should be submitted for review. See IBC Sections 107.2.1 and 1604.1. Detail <br /> 4/S2.2 has been added for parapet corner framing. Additionally, the plans have been updated. <br /> 13. Section 1/S2.1 shows a structural metal panel spanning between the parapet brace framing. <br /> Calculations substantiating the design of the panels, including connections to the framing, <br /> should be submitted for review. In addition, details and calculations for the connection of the <br /> architectural facade to the metal panels should be submitted for review. See IBC Sections <br /> 107.2.1 and 1604.1. Please see supplemental calculations for the parapet framing. Detail <br /> 1/S2.1 has been updated to show correct framing members for the parapet wall. <br /> 14.The parapet brace framing appears to be anchored to the roof with three clip connections per <br /> Section 1/S2.1 and Detail 3/S2.1. Calculations substantiating the design of the lag screw <br /> connection to the roof shall be submitted for review. The connection shall consider combined <br /> loading from concurrent tension and shear forces. The capacities shall consider spacing and <br /> edge distance reductions. See IBC Sections 1604.1 and 2306.1. See also comments below <br /> regarding the screw edge distances. Please see supplemental/revised calculations <br /> substantiating the connection design using combined loading while taking into consideration <br /> the applicable reductions for lag screw allowable loads. Connection clips are per detail 2/S2.1. <br /> 15. The parapet brace framing is oriented perpendicular to the roof framing at several locations <br /> and appears intended to connect to the framing per Detail 3/S2.1. The supporting roof <br /> framing consists of two joist members rather than a single wider member. The framing is not <br /> wide enough to provide the required minimum 3D edge distance per NDS-15 Tables 12.5.1C <br /> and 12.5.1E for the 3/4" lag screws. In addition, the placement of the framing along the brace <br /> base does not appear consistent with the connection locations specified in Section 1/S2.1. <br /> Connection details for this condition should be submitted for review. Calculations <br /> substantiating the connection design, considering concurrent tension and shear loading, should <br /> be submitted for review. The connection placement shall comply with the edge distance <br /> requirements for the individual members. See IBC Section 2306.1. The parapet brace framing <br /> is connected to the 6x10 flat blocking or 6x8 blocking per detail 2/S2.1. This provides the <br /> proper edge distance for 3/4" lags, and does not require aligning joists with the connection <br /> locations specified in 1/S2.1., please see supplemental/revised calculations substantiating the <br /> connection design. <br /> Page 5 of 6 <br /> CITY OF EVERETT • 3200 Cedar Street • Everett, WA 98201 • (425) 257-8810 • Fax (425) 257-8857 <br />
