ARCHITECTURAL PLAN COMMENTS

1. The proposed garage type door to an exit-well below grade is not generally accepted as an emergency escape and rescue opening. An egress door from the proposed basement shall be openable from the inside with the use of a key, special knowledge or effort. It is suggested that the owner install either a single or double leaf swing egress door. Review, coordinate and clarify. IRC Section R310.1, R311.4.4




STRUCTURAL FRAMING PLAN COMMENTS:

1. The registrant engineer in responsible charge shall coordinate framing and connection details for 1st floor framing connection to the basement walls. The proposed ledger bolts details at the top of the basement walls are not appropriate since the span of the floor joists exceeds the prescriptive limit of 20-feet. IRC Figure R606.10(1) clearly calls for prescriptive 7/8 inch diameter ledger bolts at 18-inches on center for a wood floor joist system having a maximum span of 20-feet. The proposed details on Sheets 5 & 10 identify 5/8 inch diameter bolts at 24-inches on center. Registrant sealed design calculations have not been submitted for the wood floor system. The owner’s registrant engineer shall provide coordinated sealed calculations and seal the structural plans and details for the design and construction of the wood framed floor system, the supporting basement walls and the foundations. IRC Section R106.1.1, R301.1.3, R606.10

2. The basement design calculations evidence a basement wall design that considers the top of the wall as restrained by the abutting floor slab. However, as shown on the construction drawing, an unrestrained design lateral horizontal load will be imposed by the backfill upon the basement wall before the abutting restraining slab on grade can be constructed. Therefore, the calculated assumption for a design restraint is inappropriate. Normally, it is the wood floor system above the basement that provides the restraint for the top of a basement wall. An appropriate design surcharge shall be included for the design of the basement walls. Calculations and details not applicable to the specific requirements for the proposed basement shall be expunged from the submittal. Review, coordinate and clarify the design. IBC 1604.4, R404.1.7, IBC Table 1607.1

3. Provided coordinated engineered and sealed details around the perimeter of the basement walls for each of the varying construction conditions along all four sides of the basement. R106.1.1

4. Identify on the drawing the engineering soil properties for backfilling around the basement walls. R405, R404.1.7, R404.1.3

5. It is not evident where the damp-proofing for the basement walls is called for on the plans. Review and clarify. R406.1
