1. Sheet TS1: Please specify the Occupancy Group to be S-1 most likely or S-2 in the Code Study as we use this information for the C of O. IBC 107.2.1
2. Sheet TS1: The exit access travel distance shall be measured from the most remote occupied point to the exit using the natural, unobstructed path of travel (typically a rectilinear path). As shown, the proposed travel path appears to pass through areas where stored caskets would likely obstruct occupant movement. When measured using a realistic rectilinear path, the exit access travel distance appears to exceed the 100-foot maximum permitted for Group S occupancies by Table 1006.2.1. Please revise the plans to demonstrate compliance with Sections 1006.2.1 and 1017.3 of the 2024 IBC.
3. Sheet S1.2: Please include the Special Inspections for Metal building systems IBC 1705.2.6 in the Statement of Special Inspections and include the required special inspections from IBC Table 1705.2.6
4. Sheet S3.0/Detail 102: The construction documents do not indicate a connection between the metal wall girt and the masonry wall. Please clarify the lateral load path for wind forces from the base of the pre-engineered metal building (PEMB) to the foundation. Demonstrate how wind loads are transferred through the wall system into the foundation, and provide connection details and supporting structural calculations, if applicable.
Reference: 2024 IBC Sections 1604.4 (Analysis), 1604.8.3 (Load Path), and 107.2.1 (Information on Construction Documents).
5. Please review the stated project valuation of $600,000.00. and 1500 SF area . Based on the adopted fee schedule, the project square footage, and occupancy classification, the value derived from the default calculation is higher than what was specified on the permit application.
Please provide a copy of the construction contract or detailed estimates to verify the project valuation. If additional information is not provided, the permit fees will be assessed based on the calculated valuation in accordance with IBC 109.3 and the adopted fee schedule.

COMMENTS:

1. The Development Plan (TD-DEV-0626-00170) identifies an existing 5/8-inch water meter, a 3/4-inch water service line, and a proposed 3/4-inch backflow preventer. However, the plumbing plans for this permit indicate a new 5/8-inch water meter, a 1-inch water service line, and a new 1-inch backflow preventer. Please clarify and coordinate the proposed water service components with the Development Plan. Revise the plans as necessary so the information is consistent across both. Reference: Section 107.2.1, IBC 2024.
