The first submittal plans for the above referenced project are in the process of Architectural, Structural, Plumbing, Mechanical and Electrical plan review for compliance with the City of Tucson ordinances and applicable codes. Corrections required are noted below. All corrections must be made to the original drawings and new complete and revised sets resubmitted along with a written response to each of the items listed below to facilitate a shorter back-check time.

The scope of this review covers Architectural, Structural, Plumbing, Mechanical and Electrical review. These disciplines were checked only to the extent allowed by the documents provided. All portions of this project are assumed to meet or will meet other departmental requirements, conditions and concerns before permit approval.

ARCHITECTURAL COMMENTS
Provide an index to drawings on the first sheet of the set. Ref. IRC Section R106.1.1.
There shall be a floor or landing on each side of each exterior door not more than 7 ¾” below threshold. The width of the landing shall not be less than the door served with a minimum dimension of 36 inch measured in the direction of travel. Ref. IRC Section R311.4.3. Please clarify both doors.
Note and specify that shower area walls shall be finished with a non-absorbent surface to a height of six feet above the floor. Ref. IRC Section 307.2.
Specify ½”anti sag gypsum board or 5/8” for ceiling when framing exceeds 16”o.c.

Provide accurate drawings of all elevations. Indicate all materials used – stucco, concrete block, glass block, roofing systems, siding, veneers, etc. Ref. IRC Section R703. Clarify North side and coordinate with material sections.
Provide attic ventilation calculations for all concealed attic spaces; include required and provided net free ventilation area. Also, indicate the type and location of attic ventilation. Provide the following note, if applicable: “Where eave or cornice vents are installed insulation shall not block the free flow of air. A minimum of 1 inch space shall be provided between the insulation and roof sheathing at the location of the vent” (non-vented roof design may be used with a registrant’s seal or meeting the TEP guidelines as agreed by the Greater Tucson Jurisdictions).
