ARCHITECTURAL COMMENTS

General

1. Please provide a construction detail indicating methods and materials of the rated exterior walls vertical continuity to the parapets. [Ref. IBC 2018 Sec. 705.11]

Sheet CS

1. The project description indicates that the permit is for the foundation and podium. Please revise this to reflect the actual scope of work for this project (superstructure, shell, core, and fit out).

Sheet G0.01

1. The plan-set is missing sheets A11.11, A11.21, & A12.03 as indicated on the sheet index. Please provide.

Sheet G2.01

1. Please indicate that the swimming pool and site utilities are to be provided as part of this project and are to be submitted as a separate permit (not a deferred submittal). Please also remove the swimming pool drawings from this plan-set.

2. The plans indicate that pre-engineered wood trusses, exterior cladding and steel stud framing, steel stairs, glass guardrail, roof tie backs and anchorages, post-tension shop drawings, non-bearing interior stud partition walls, elevator shop drawings, storefront shop drawings will be provided as part of deferred submittal. Either provide the documents now or list on this sheet as a deferred submittal and include the following notes:

PER IBC Section 107.3.4
<Name of Registrant>, the registered design professional in charge shall be responsible for reviewing and coordinating submittal documents prepared by others, including phased and deferred submittal items, for compatibility with the design of the building.

PER IBC Section 107.3.4.1
Submittal documents for deferred submittal items shall be submitted to the registered design professional in responsible charge, who shall review them and forward them to the Building Official with a notation indicating that the deferred submittal documents have been reviewed and that they have been found to be in general conformance with the design of the building.

3. Note on the cover of the drawings that special inspection is required for earthwork, concrete, caissons, post-tension, epoxy and expansion anchors, structural steel, high-strength bolts, field welding, masonry, wood construction, and outdoor lighting (if needed). Also, provide City of Tucson special inspection certificate(s) with Parts A and B completed. Make sure that the owner or their legal representative signs the form.

4. The special inspection form we received is missing several of the special inspections mentioned above. Please revise or supply and additional special inspection certification for the missing special inspections.

5. We did receive a special inspection certificate as requested above, however there are several issues with the certificate:
a. The certificate lists an inspector (Parker Schrandt) who has not been vetted on the Town of Oro Valley or Pima County list of special inspectors. He will have to submit his qualifications for all special inspections, or you can provide a certificate with a vetted special inspector.
b. Parker appears to be with PK Engineering; does PK Engineering have the lab and or equipment to be able to perform any of the required tests, such as concrete cylinder breaks?

Sheet G2.21

1. Stair 1 appears to indicate the use of the exception for Section 1028.1. Exception 1 would allow for egress through lobby to the main entrance, but Section 1.1 indicates that the exit be readily visible which it is not. To qualify for exception 2 and egress through the vestibule the area must be separated from the remainder of the exit discharge by fire partitions which it is not. Please revise. [IBC 2018 Sec. 1028.1]

2. The electrical room appears to exit directly into the roadway which possess a life safety concern if cars are driving through. Can this entrance be brought back to exit onto a landing before stepping into the road?
