ARCHITECTURAL COMMENTS

General

1. Please provide City of Tucson special inspection certificate(s) with Parts A and B completed for post-installed anchors. Make sure that the owner or their legal representative signs the form.

Sheet CVR

1. Please provide updated plumbing fixture calculations. [Ref. IBC 2024 Sec. 2902]

2. The Applicable Codes section indicates the 2011 National Electric Code. The City of Tucson has adopted the 2023 National Electric Code. Please revise.

Sheet SP-DP-1

1. The site plan indicates a fire separation distance of 8 feet at the north wall. Per Table 705.5 of the 2024 IBC, exterior walls with a fire separation distance of 5 feet to less than 10 feet are required to have a minimum 1-hour fire-resistance rating and shall be rated from both sides.

Revise the plans to indicate the proposed exterior walls are constructed as minimum 1-hour fire-resistance-rated assemblies. Provide the following for verification:

a. Wall section details of the rated exterior wall assembly.

b. Identification of the tested and listed fire-resistance-rated assembly proposed (e.g., UL, GA, or other approved listing) including the assembly number.

Sheet A-4

1. The north wall of the building appears to exceed the allowable unprotected openings based on a fire separation distance of 8 feet. The north wall approximately has 17% unprotected openings with an allowance of 10%. Please revise accordingly. [Ref. IBC 2024 Sec. 705.9]

Sheet A-5

1. The proposed north exterior wall is required to be a minimum 1-hour fire-resistance-rated exterior wall based on the indicated fire separation distance of 8 feet, in accordance with Table 705.5 of the 2024 IBC.

Per IBC Section 705.12, exterior walls required to have a fire-resistance rating must also extend continuously to the underside of the roof sheathing and terminate in a parapet where the roof construction is not similarly rated.

The current plans do not indicate a parapet at the north exterior wall, nor do they demonstrate compliance with any of the parapet exceptions in IBC Section 705.12. Based on the information provided, the design does not appear to meet the conditions of the listed exceptions, including but not limited to the allowable openings and fire-resistance provisions associated with those exceptions.

Revise the plans to demonstrate compliance with IBC Section 705.12 by one of the following:

a. Provide a parapet at the north exterior wall in accordance with IBC Section 705.12, including required height and construction details, or

b. Demonstrate compliance with one of the exceptions to Section 705.12.

Note that Exception 6 of Section 705.12 may be applicable if all openings in the north exterior wall are protected in accordance with IBC Section 716. If this option is pursued, provide details of the opening protective assemblies (fire-rated windows) and identify their fire protection rating and listing demonstrating compliance with the opening protection requirements.

Sheet A-8

1. The sheet indicates compliance with ICC A117.1-2009. The 2024 IBC reference standard for accessibility is ICCA117.1-2017. Please revise to comply with the updated standard. {Please note clear floor space and turning radius clearance have increased. Be sure to update this sheet and the floor plans with the new dimensions.}

STRUCTURAL COMMENTS

Sheet S3.0

1. Detail 103 indicates the incorrect keynote indicator for the A34 clips attached to the masonry wall. This keynote indicator should be number 9. Please revise.

MECHANICAL COMMENTS

There are no comments.

PLUMBING COMMENTS

Sheet P-2

1. Keynote 11 refers to Dental Drawing for details, specs, and locations of the water control manifolds. Please provide the Dental Drawing for review.
