a. ICC A11.7, Section 305.7 states that "on all or part of three sides" if greater than 24" then Section 305.7.2, 36" wide alcove for a foward approach, is effective.
2. At details 1 and 2/A503, the comment is referenced to the three steps at the bottom of the stair landing. They need another hand rail down the middle of the 90 degree radii.
STRUCTURAL REVIEW

9. Please provide an intent summary for the lateral laods and shear walls. The information is there, what is to be done with it?
END OF REVIEW
09/04/2012 ROBERT SHERRY WATER REVIEW Denied Comment not resolved; Tucson water does not want to have the reduced pressure backflow prevention assembly located inside of the fire riser room. The civil drawings show the assembly located close to the water meter; coordinate with them. [Original comment: Reduced pressure backflow prevention assemblies are required to be installed in locations accessible to Tucson Water. Reference: Chapter XXVII, Article V, Section 27-72, the Tucson Code, http://cms3.tucsonaz.gov/sites/default/files/water/docs/backflow-ordinance.pdf]
09/05/2012 ROBERT SHERRY PLUMBING-COMMERCIAL REVIEW Denied 1. The revised hot water distribution system now shows two tankless water heaters which is one more than shown on the electrical plans. [Original comment: The developed length of the hot water supply piping from the storage-type water heater appears to be greater than one-hundred feet; provide a method for maintaining the temperature of the hot water supply system. Reference: Section 607.2, IPC 2006.]
2. Elastomeric devices designed to physically seal the trap and prevent loss of the water seal (e.g. Pro-vent Trap Guards, Sure Seal Trap Sealers, et al) are not approved for use in the City of Tucson. Reference: Sections 706.2 and 1002.4, IPC 2006. [Original comment: Specify the trap primer to be used for protecting the trap seals of floor drains. Reference: Sections 303.2 and 1002.4, IPC 2006.]
09/05/2012 ROBERT SHERRY MECHANICAL-COMMERCIAL REVIEW Denied 1. Revise the envelope energy calculations to accurately reflect the buildings that are depicted in the architectural drawings with regard to the insulation R-values, doors (quantities), and fenestration inputs. [Original comment: Provide energy code compliance calculations for the building envelope; use the climate zone for Pima County < 4,000 feet. Provide sufficient detail on the drawings to evaluate the energy compliance of the building envelope. The information shall, as a minimum, include construction of the fenestration components and the projection factors for the fenestration. Reference: Sections 101.4 and 104.2, International Energy Conservation Code 2006.]
2. Comment not addressed; see note 2 under the Piping section of the general notes on sheet M0.1. Show the size, route, and termination of each condensate drain on the plans. [Original comment: The 2006 International Mechanical Code with Local Amendments is the relevant code for this project, not the North Carolina Plumbing Code. See Section 307.2.1, IMC 2006, as amended by the City of Tucson for information regarding approved locations for the termination of condensate drains.]
3. Comment not resolved. If the exhaust fans are locally controlled by the room lighting or motion sensors but the supply air is continuously introduced into the restrooms, then none of the air will be exhausted when the exhaust fans are turned off. Revise the sequence of operation to ensure that all of the air supplied to the restrooms is exhausted. (Note: remove the return air grille from room 121- the women's restroom - per Section 918.6 (5), IMC 2006.) [Original comment: Revise the sequence of operation for the restroom exhaust fans so that all of the air supplied to the restrooms will be exhausted (i.e. the exhaust fans shall operate whenever air is being supplied to the restrooms). Reference: Section 403.2.1 (4), IMC 2006.]
4. The dryer exhaust duct appears to be far in excess of the maximum length of 25-feet specified in Section 504.6.1, IMC 2006 even without including the equivalent duct length due to 45-degree and 90-degree bends. Clarify how this design is allowable under the mechanical code. [Original comment: Show the size, route, and termination of the dryer exhaust duct. Reference: Sections 504.1, 504.2, and 504.4, IMC 2006.]
5. Revise note 16 to indicate that the duct-mounted smoke detector is to be located upstream of any outside air connections, i.e. the detector will sense the air in the duct before any outside air is introduced into the return air duct. [Original comment: The schedule for the split-system heat pumps calls for the installation of a duct-mounted smoke detector in each air handler delivering 2,000 CFM. General HVAC Note 16 calls for duct-mounted smoke detectors in units delivering more than 2,000 CFM but is ambiguous in specifying the location for the detectors. For clarity, the 2006 IMC requires smoke detectors to be located in the return air duct, upstream of any outside air connections, for all air distribution systems with a capacity greater than 2,000 CFM. Reference: Section 606.1, IMC 2006.]
