PLAN REVIEW COMMENTS

Plan review for the above referenced structure has been completed. This letter reflects comments to be addressed. For facilitating a shorter back check time, please provide updated plans and calculations with a written response to each of the notated items indicating action taken. Do not cloud the changes made for comment updates; revisions are processed if changes occur after the permit is issued.

SCOPE OF REVIEW:

The scope of this plan review covers architectural, plumbing, mechanical, energy conservation and electrical. All code references are to the 2018 International Residential Code and 2018 International Energy Conservation Code. All features were checked only to the extent allowed by the submittals provided. All portions of this project are assumed to meet or will meet other departmental requirements, conditions and concerns before permit approval.

PROVIDE A COMPLETE PLAN SET showing all proposed alterations to the building with 2018 IRC code compliance with component sizes. The plans require sufficient detail for demonstrating an awareness of minimum building code compliance for passing all progress inspections.

Include changes for previously provided comments (INFO sheet) in updated construction plans.

GENERAL COMMENTS (for dwelling with kitchen):

1. An independent dwelling (ADU) requires fire spread and utility (electrical & water) separation so that one dwelling is not dependent upon another for water or electrical service.

SITE PLAN:

1. Show a Pima County issued address for the ADU on the site plan, R319.

PLANS:

1. Clarify sheet S-05: the framing plan notation shows a ridge beam without appropriate size. Update Framing Note #6 consistent with sheet S-05.1.
2. Clarify sheet S-05.1: the framing plan shows an undersized ridge beam. Show a compliant roof design and remove the “Note contractor to verify correct spans” notation. Also, the Roofing Notes #1 and Detail #2 shows a manufactured truss. Provide a complete and consistent design.

SECTIONS - DETAILS:

1. Show one-hour fire-resistive framed construction separating dwellings in compliance with IBC Table 721.1(2). Show the existing dwelling wall configuration and identify alterations for achieving one-hour rated separation. A framed wall requires 5/8” Type X on each side of studs.
2. Show a complete cross-section detail of the new exterior wall, R106.1.1. Show the minimum 12” reinforced footing depth below the undisturbed ground surface R403.1. Show exterior wood siding, sheathing and wall framing with a 6” clearance above the ground, R317.1 item 5. Update the details on sheet S-04 with location references on the plan view.
3. An unvented roof assembly requires an air-impermeable rigid insulation material with a minimum R-5 value applied correctly to either side of the roof sheathing, R806.5. Show a roof design with insulation types and minimum thickness for meeting the condensation control requirement and the minimum total insulation value of R-38. Show the placement of ridge foam board or equivalent material on sheet S-04.

PLUMBING PLANS:

1. Show an individual accessible water supply shut off for each dwelling unit, P2903.9.1.
2. Show an individual water heater for each dwelling unit, P2801.1.

1. Provide (an HVAC system with fresh air intake) whole-house mechanical ventilation, or controlled exhaust with a calculated airflow rate, R303.4; N1103.6 & M1505.4. Show the system and appropriate flow rate setting on the plans. A two or three bedroom dwelling under 1501 SF requires a 45 CFM continuous setting.
2. A 5-ton HVAC system is oversized. Update the cooling rating. Provide demand calculations in accordance with Manual J/S/D standards, M1401.3, M1601.1. Systems shall be sized in accordance with Manual S based on building loads calculated in accordance with Manual J and duct systems sized in accordance with Manual D. Notate if the mechanical plans if system calculations will be provided by deferred submittal.
