City of Tucson No. T06CM04466
Stantec Project No. 816-30015-01 (092)




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, clouding 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 Architectural, Structural, Plumbing, Mechanical, Model Energy and Electrical codes. All code references are to the 2003 International Residential Code (IRC) except for plumbing, which is to the 2003 Uniform Plumbing Code. 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.

Note: Be aware that the City of Tucson intends to adopt the 2006 International Residential Code sometime around January 2007 (with the exception of the plumbing portion of the IRC which will likely be substituted with the 2006 Uniform Plumbing Code).

GENERAL:

There are no general comments to be addressed.

ARCHITECTURAL:

What is the sill height of the bedroom windows? Emergency escape or rescue window (or door) from all bedrooms need to have a sill height no greater than 44” above the finished floor [2003 IRC Sec. 310]

Show calculation of attic or rafter ventilation area required and note the location of all vents needed to comply [2003 IRC Sec. R806.2], or stipulate on the plans that "Unvented attic as per code IRC Section R104.11 “Alternative materials, design and methods of construction as approved by the local jurisdictions.” If the rafter or attic is to be unvented, then make sure and provided mechanical outside air at a rate of 15 c.f.m. plus an additional 15 c.f.m. for each bedroom, and also if the roof is flat it needs to receive a white or off-white reflective coating.

STRUCTURAL:

The size of the steel lintel indicated in Note 24 on Sheet 3 is not clear. The third dimension should represent the thickness of the angle (1/4”, 3/8”, 1/2”, etc.). The dimension shown is 3-1/2”. Please correct.

PLUMBING:

Specify water conserving (low flow) fixtures; water closets 1.6 gallons per flush, urinals 1 gallon per flush, and sinks and showerheads 3 gallons per minute [Arizona Revised Statute 45-312].

MECHANICAL:

There are no mechanical comments to be addressed.


ELECTRICAL:

The branch circuits serving all outlets in bedrooms (i.e. receptacles, lights, smoke detectors) need to be protected by arc-fault circuit interrupters listed to provide protection to the entire branch circuit [2003 IRC Sec. E3802.11]. Circuits 15 and 23 also need to be AFCI protected.

The outdoor lighting calculations are satisfactory, however they need to be transferred onto the plans.

ENERGY:

There are no energy comments to be addressed.
