Plan review for the above referenced structure 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 action taken.

SCOPE OF REVIEW:
The scope of this plan review covers architectural, plumbing, mechanical, energy conservation and electrical. All code references are to the 2006 International Residential Code, 2006 International Energy Conservation Code, and Arizona State amendments to the 2006 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.

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS:
All corrections and revisions shall be made on original tracings or a finished reproducible set. Return two sets along with a set of the first submission for reference. Pen or pencil corrections on final prints will not be acceptable. To avoid delays, ensure that all corrections have been made, are complete, and have been coordinated on all applicable detail and note sheets (clouded revision notation is not necessary for comment changes).

All engineers and architects involved in the design of the structure are to seal the related sheets of plans, details and calculations in accordance with the rules of the State Board of Technical Registration.

The City of Tucson adopted the 2006 IRC with amendments on 6/12/2007, the 2006 UPC with amendments on 7/10/2007 and effective 1/1/2007 the Inclusive Home Design. All plans should reference these codes. Adopted amendments are found at: http://www.tucsonaz.gov/dsd/Codes___Ordinances/Building_Codes/building_codes.html

SITE PLAN:

1. Show the water pipe size between the meter and the converted building. Each section of the supply pipe must be sized for the calculated loads, 2006 UPC 610.1.

2. Show fiber-cement board or glass mat gypsum backers for tiled walls in tub and shower areas, R702.4.2.

PLUMBING PLANS:

1. Provide protection of (indoor rated) equipment located outdoors, UPC 508.27.
2. Revise Plumbing Note #10. Provide water hammer arresters wherever quick-closing valves are installed in a water distribution system. The devices should conform to ASSE 1010-2004. Water hammer arresters are required for clothes washers, dishwashers and refrigerator water connections, UPC 609.10.
3. Clarify the point of connection of the new 1-1/4" supply water line. The Site Plan shows a connection tee, but the Plumbing Plan references a shut off value, UPC 610.3.

Fixtures may be exempt from the total lumen budget if both of the full cut-off FCO style and located under overhangs, OLC 5.1.2.

INTERNATIONAL ENERGY CONSERVATION CODE:

1. Tucson is in climate zone 2B. The simplified prescribed energy values for glazing and skylights is U=0.75, ceiling R=30 and walls R=13. The "U" factors of the skylights should be revised if used, N1101.2.
2. Both standard and high density R-30 batt insulation requires a space greater than provided with 2" x 8" framing. Identify the ceiling cavity.
