Revise the plan to show the size and route of the building water supply along with the location and size of both the water meter and the reduced pressure backflow preventer assembly. Reference Section 103.2.3, UPC 2003.
10/05/2007 ROBERT SHERRY PLUMBING-COMMERCIAL REVIEW Denied 1. Provide legible drawings. The architectural backgrounds are not visible on some of the sheets and some of the lettering has been overwritten so that it is not legible. Revise the font size used on the drawings to a minimum of 1/8-inch (all upper case). Reference Section 302.3, Uniform Administrative Code, 1997.
2. Comment not addressed. A permanently legible imprint of the registrant's seal and signature shall appear on either the cover, title, index page, or first sheet of each set of project specifications. Reference Arizona Revised Statutes 32-125, Board of Technical Registration Rules R4-30-304.
3. A successful appeal to the building official has not been provided. The use of a single stack DWV system with unvented branch lines is not allowed per Section 311.4, UPC 2003. Provide documentation to justify the equivalency of this DWV system in an appeal to the building official. Reference Section 301.2, UPC 2003.
4. Revise (complete) the storm leader diagram (sheet MP-302). The provided diagram does not appear to reflect the design indicated in the plumbing plans. Reference Section 103.2.3, UPC 2003.
5. The architectural drawings do not indicate the presence of any scuppers and the roof drainage is directed to the center of the roof. Show how secondary roof drainage is being provided. Reference Section 1101.11.2, UPC 2003.
6. All plumbing fixtures (e.g. P-21A) located on or above the first floor that do not have to be routed through the grease trap shall be drained by gravity unless it is structurally impractical. Reference Section 709.0, UPC 2003.

PLEASE CALL AT 791-5550 X1106 OR EMAIL AT Linda.Buczynski@tucsonaz.gov
IF YOU CARE TO DISCUSS.

1. Mechanical Engineer shall clarify circuit requirements MCA and MOCP, for AC units, before Code review. Which slash rating is applicable to the unit specified. Reference Sheet M-400, AC Unit System Schedule. THIS COMMENT MADE ON THE REVIEW OF 6/6/07. Minimum circuit ampacity on Sheet M-400 still appears like "26.1/28.5." Maximum fuse/breaker on Sheet M-400 still appears like "25/30." Mechanical Engineer shall identify which of the two options is required for these units, and remove the one which does not apply.
2. Revise the font size used on the drawings to a minimum of 1/8-inch (all upper case). Reference Section 302.3, Uniform Administrative Code, 1997. THIS COMMENT WAS MADE ON THE REVIEW DATED 6/6/07. Electrical light fixture schedule sheet E-002 too fine a print to review. Blow this up, and all other text which does not meet this criterion.
3. Sheets E-101L and E-101LA not yet reviewed. Provide panel and circuit number for all electrical loads. All lettering minimum font size 1/8". Eliminate overwrites. THIS COMMENT WAS MADE ON THE REVIEW DATED 6/6/07. Could not coordinate drawings. Sheet E-003 too small font size to review. There is also some text which is too small to review on Sheet E-101L. Do not see Dimming Panel channel numbers, perhaps they are too small to read. There is some text too small to read on Sheet E-101LA.
4. For elevator HVAC branch circuits EM-67, EM-73, or EM-42, the overcurrent device shall be located in the elevator machine room. Reference NEC 620.22 (B), 620.53.
5. For elevator car lighting branch circuits EM-65, EM-71, or EM-40, the overcurrent device shall be located in the elevator machine room. Reference NEC 620.22 (A), 620.53.
6. Elevator machine room light and receptacle shall be on the same branch circuit. Reference NEC 620.23 (A).
7. Elevator machine room receptacle shall be GFCI protected. Reference NEC 620.85.
8. Elevator pit lighting circuits EM-B (30) and EM-B (32) have a symbol not defined. Reference Sheet E-100P. This symbol appears to represent a light with guarding. Additionally, it appears that the circuit descriptions on the panel schedules should include the receptacles.
9. Please locate Circuit EM-B (34) on the plans.
10. LP-A (15) and LP-A (24) appear redundant to EM-B (30), (32), and (34).
11. Define LP-A (16) and LP-A (25) on panel schedule.
12. Clarify the intent of the junction boxes on Ckts RP-B (28) and (29). Reference Sheet E-101P. THIS COMMENT WAS MADE ON THE REVIEW DATED 6/6/07. If the signage uplights is by a contractor who will not be working on this permit, then indicate so on these drawings. Otherwise, incorporate these uplights fully as a part of this design. Note that RP-B (28) and (29) still just indicate j-boxes, not future signage lights.
13. Specify the bonding required by NEC 680.26. THIS COMMENT WAS MADE ON THE REVIEW DATED 6/6/07. If the pool and of course its bonding is part of another permit, please provide such permit number such that we may verify and cross-reference in our system.
14. There is a single phase load on Revision 1 Sheet E-101P, EM-B (22). This is part of a 3-phase circuit feeding Panel OLP on the panel schedule.
15. Please reconcile the power requirements on the Electrical Connection Schedule, Sheet E-204 with those on the panel schedule for Ckt KP-8,10,12. If this 3-phase Convection Oven is indeed 5 KW, then its current draw would be 13.9A; the 30A circuit breaker would be oversized per NEC 240.6 (A) and 422.11 (E) (3). THIS COMMENT WAS MADE ON THE REVIEW DATED 6/6/07. If this draws 21A, then the KVA on the panel schedule would read "7.6", not 4.4.
16. Provide listing information on the generator. THIS COMMENT WAS MADE ON THE REVIEW DATED 6/6/07. Cut sheets on Sheet E-500 do not include a 400KW generator. Please coordinate with the information on Sheet E-300, Electrical Riser Diagram.
17. It appears that the location of the disconnecting means for the Fire Pump Service, is not installed remote from the disconnecting means for normal service. Reference NEC 695.3 (A) (1), and 230.72 (B).

Please clarify this very important location. Electrical Plans Examiner to review per NEC 695.7, 695.12, and 695.14 after such clarification.
24. Provide legible drawings. The architectural backgrounds are not visible on some of the sheets and some of the lettering has been overwritten so that it is not legible. This is most acutely noted on Sheets such as E-100P, where it is not possible to decipher the extent of the room within which the Fire Pump is located.
25. Please provide Civil drawings with the next submittal. Need to see the location of the generator.
26. Transfer equipment for emergency loads shall supply only emergency loads. Reference NEC 700.6 (D). There are certain electrical loads served by the transfer switches for Panels EM and EM-B which are not emergency loads, such as exterior lighting, ejector pumps, and garage fans.
27. Specify the sign required by NEC 700.8. Provide the exact wording.
28. Specify the marking required by NEC 700.9 (A). Provide the exact wording
29. Submit catalogue cut sheets for all exterior lighting. SECOND REQUEST. Include

34. Please add Fixture BF to the lumen calculations on Sheet STLG-100. Reference Sheet E-101LA, 12 under canopy lights.
35. Fixture GC, at 35W, could not be only 35 lumens.
36. Fixture GG wattage not specified. No way to evaluate lumens.
37. Fixture KC can NOT be considered UNSHIELDED for the purpose of the lumen calculation, because it is being installed as an unlight.
38. From the reproduction of the cut sheet for Fixture BH, it is difficult to determine whether it is full-cutoff. The profile shot appears to be, but the photo above it appears not to be.
39. This site is zoned for Commercial, not Residential, and this will help when you rework these calculations. THIS COMMENT WAS MADE ON THE REVIEW DATED 6/6/07.
40. Provide a detail for the pole and foundation for Fixture GG. If the pole is greater than 20' in height, such details, and calculations for both pole and foundation, shall be sealed by a Registered Structural Engineer. THIS COMMENT WAS MADE ON THE REVIEW DATED 6/6/07. WILL REMOVE THIS COMMENT WHEN COMPLIANCE HAS BEEN DEMONSTRATED.
