Among that information is an ICC-ES <br /> EVALUATION REPORT ESR-1289 that indicates this system complies with the IBC. <br /> It is our clear intent that this installation is to follow the manufacturer recommendations as outlined <br /> therein and our consulting structural engineer advises that the Bellevue's Plan Reviewers questions <br /> regarding fasteners,gauge,etc are redundant and perhaps more pertinent to a"stick-built" <br /> ceiling using metal studs. <br /> This system clearly is wall to wall,is suspended by wire at 4' intervals and snaps together, as <br /> Per the manufacturer's design <br /> In that case we ask that the city removes the requirement for a Deferred Permit for the ceiling and <br /> Allow by Inspector Site Review,at the very least. <br /> Thank you, <br /> 441.1 <br /> Thomas Thompson,Architect <br /> Cc/ Ed Brown,P,Eng,Sitts&Hill Engineering <br /> 29619 15th Avenue NE, Stanwood, WA 98292 <br /> ttsquared(a omail.com <br /> cell: 206-409-0755 phone: 360-629-3985 fax: 360-629-5435 <br />
