RE: REID PARK ZOO EDUCATIONAL CENTER – 1ST REVIEW
CITY OF TUCSON LOG NO. T06CM03714
WILLDAN PROJECT NO. 13881-6046

The initial review for the above project has been completed. This letter contains comments which need to be addressed by written responses to each which indicate any actions taken. In order to facilitate a shorter second review, all corrections and revisions must be made on the original plans and two complete new sets of prints, along with one complete redlined set, must be returned to our office. To avoid delays, ensure that all corrections have been made, are complete, and have been coordinated on all applicable detail and note sheets, and that all changes have been highlighted with appropriate revision numbers, revision dates, and “cloud bubbles.” Pen or pencil corrections on final prints are not acceptable.

This project has been reviewed for conformance with the 2003 IBC, 1997 UAC, 2003 IMC, 2003 IECC, 2002 NEC codes with local modifications, and the 2003 UPC with State of Arizona Amendments. Any revisions to this plan will require an additional review and approval by Willdan.

Should you have questions regarding the comments herein, please contact your plans examiner Terry Malone and Jim Fox.

Section 406: There are two weld symbols without a weld size called out. Provide a weld size. Reference IBC Section 106.1.1.

Calculations
FB7 Sheet 23 and 49: The hand calculations show loads that imply that a concrete topping is applied to the beam. The plans show no topping but calls out for the beam to have WHS. Clarify. Reference IBC Section 106.1.1.

FB16 Sheet 31 and 68: The hand calculations and schedule implies that the beam is a composite beam. However, the computer output and plans show no topping. Clarify. Reference IBC Section 106.1.1.

FB17 Sheet 32 and 69: Sheet 32 and the plan show a W18x40 is to be used. The computer output shows a W14x48. Clarify which one is to be used. Also verify that a total load deflection of L/394 is satisfactory to support a concrete wall. Revise the calculations. Reference IBC Section 106.1.1.

Lateral analysis:

Sheet 125: The building has plywood shear walls (R=6.5), ordinary reinforced concrete shear walls (R=4.0), and intermediate reinforced masonry shear walls (R=3.5) as part of the lateral force resisting system, per ASCE Table 9.5.2.2. An R factor=4.5 was used from IBC Table 1617.6.2. That table is for use in the simplified lateral analysis method only. ASCE 9.5.2.2.2.1 requires that the lowest R factor is to be used. Therefore, R=3.5. Revise the calculations. Reference IBC Section 1604.4.

The simplified wind analysis was used for the lateral design. The building does not comply with the conditions outlined in Section 1609.6.1.1, Item 5. Revise the calculations.

Sheet 127: The allowable shear value for the plywood shear walls is incorrect. The shear walls on line 2C and 2D must be designed as a type I shear wall, designed for force transfer around the openings, or as type II shear wall per IBC 2211.2 and 2211.3 respectively. The aspect ratio for the wall on Line 2C exceed the allowable listed in the tables. All of the reductions listed in footnote “a.” of the tables and in 2211.2.2(5), 2211.3.1(2) and 2211.3.2(3) must be used. Revise the calculations. Reference IBC Section 1604.4.

Sheet 128: See previous comment about missing hold-downs on the plan.

Provide out-of-plane connection calculations. Note, that since most of the beam to wall connections are shown to be slip joint oriented, strap or dowel type connections should be considered. Where out-of plane fixity is provided at the beams, the wall must also be design to span horizontally when the connections exceed 4 foot on center spacings. Reference ASCE Sections 9.5.2.6.2.8 and 9.5.2.6.3.2.




Provide calculations for all drag struts, chords, collectors and their connections at splices and at their connection to the lateral resisting elements. Provide calculations for force transfer across diaphragm discontinuities. Reference ASCE Sections 9.5.2.6.3.1, 9.5.2.6.2.7 and IBC Section 2305.1.2.

Provide calculations for the site walls shown on Sheets T35 and S1.3. Reference IBC Section 1604.4.
