Re: Richards Residence #2 – Structural Conversion
City of Tucson No. T05CM05979
Stantec Project No. 816-30015-01 (079)




Plan review for the above referenced project has been completed. This letter reflects comments to be addressed. In order to facilitate a shorter back-check time, we request that you please provide revised plans and calculations, highlighting any changes, along with a written response to each of the noted items indicating the action taken.

SCOPE OF REVIEW:

The scope of this review covers residential plan review of the Architectural, Structural, Plumbing, Mechanical, Model Energy and Electrical codes. All code references are to the 2003 International Residential Code (IRC) with local amendments. 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.

ARCHITECTURAL:

There are no comments to address.

STRUCTURAL:

There are no comments to address.

PLUMBING PLANS:

The plan fails to denote to depict the usage of drainage cleanouts for both individual waste stack and the building drain/building sewer junction, which also requires a cleanout. Provide missing requirements. (The submitted plans contain numerous errors. Although improvements are noted the piping layout denotes the applicant’s inexperience with the trade that is being depicted. Stantec suggests the applicant consult with a knowledgeable field representative.)

(Revised comment.) The site plan sheet 1 and plumbing plan sheet 4 depict an attempt to connect the new residence to the existing houses HCS. Please provide the invert at this location for proof of positive flow and minimum slope.
Please provide notation on this set of drawings stipulating the new sewer run for the addition will meet [2003 UPC Sec’s 708.0 & 718.1] min. slope of ¼” per foot or slope certification shall be presented to the building inspector from a registered land surveyor before approval of the pipe laid. Use of the City’s three part carbonless form is required.

MECHANICAL PLANS:

There are no comments to address.

ELECTRICAL PLANS:

The presented Outdoor Lighting compliance fixtures and calculations denote several miss conceptions about the code. Please read and comply with the following;
The area of land is 0.22 of an acre. Therefore the allowable limits on lighting need to be based upon this land area per the light zone the property is located inside. Denote site location and total site lumen limit.
(Not found.) Lot limits are 12,100 total lumens, 2,640 unshielded lumens.
When a new residence such as this project is added, the entire site must be brought into lighting code compliance. Therefore a plan depicting all site light usage must be submitted.
Photo(s) of existing use for proof of fixture(s) are accepted in lieu of manufacturer’s cut sheets.
None submitted. The applicant has referenced a commercial fixture from ANP. Because the Code Compliance calculation shall be based upon the largest bulb the fixture can accommodate per the manufacturer’s recommendations the fixture exceeds your sites lumen limits. Fixture’s minimum lamp base size for incandescent is noted as 200 watts. Please select another fixture type.
Both structures must comply with the site total lumen cap.

MODEL ENERGY CODE:

There are no comments to address.
