| 02/02/2016 | KEN VAN KARSEN | BUILDING-RESIDENTIAL | REVIEW | Reqs Change | T15CM06467 PLAN REVIEW COMMENTS 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, please provide two sets of updated plans and calculations with a written response to each of the notated items indicating action taken. Do not cloud the changes made for comment revisions. SCOPE OF REVIEW: The scope of this plan review covers architectural, plumbing, mechanical, energy conservation and electrical. All code references are to the 2012 International Residential Code and 2012 International Energy Conservation 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. SECTIONS - DETAILS: 1. An unvented roof assembly requires an air-impermeable rigid insulation material with a minimum R-5 value applied correctly to either side of the roof sheathing (closed cell spray tight to the roof sheathing or rigid board sealed to roof framing), R806.5. This condensation control provision is necessary for code compliance and may be layered with batt insulation for achieving the total required roof R-value. Update Roof Design detail on sheet 6.0. 2. Engineered components may not be modified without the engineer's written approval, R106.1.1. Remove the "modified" from the truss notation on sheet 6.0. 3. Clarify (remove) the batt insulation notation shown on sheet 6.1, R106.1.1. These details are not consistent with the unvented information on sheet 5.0 and 6.0. MECHANICAL PLANS: 1. Show supply ducts with minimum R-8 insulation (includes vented attics) except when completely located inside the thermal envelope, N1103.2.1. All other ducts outside of the thermal envelope require R-6 insulation. Update note #9. 2. Provide demand calculations in accordance with Manual J/S/D standards, M1401.3, M1601.1. Systems shall be sized in accordance with Manual S based on building loads calculated in accordance with Manual J and duct systems sized in accordance with Manual D. ELECTRICAL PLANS: 1. Interior alterations require the installation of smoke alarms at existing bedrooms, R314.3.1. Provide notation if the smoke alarms are existing or proposed. INTERNATIONAL ENERGY CONSERVATION CODE: 1. Tucson is in climate zone 2B. The simplified prescribed energy values for glazing is U=0.40, skylights U=0.65, ceiling R=38 and walls R=13. Show the maximum "U" factors of the windows and doors on the plans as well as the solar heat gain coefficient SHGC minimum value of 0.25, N1102.1.

| 02/05/2016 | MARTIN BROWN | FIRE | REVIEW | Reqs Change | This residence will have a "fire-flow calculation area"(2012 IFC Appendix B, Section B102 and 105.1) greater than 3,600 sq. ft.: therefore this house will require a residential sprinkler system unless the fire flow in the nearest hydrant is a minimum of 1,750 GPM for 2 hours duration at 20 psi residual pressure. Additionally, the hydrant must be within 600' of all parts of the residence. Have a licensed fire sprinkler contractor perform a flow test. Provide notes on plan regarding verification of fire flow and proximity of hydrant or intent to install a fire sprinkler system. If a system will be installed, residential or quick response sprinklers shall be used. The sprinkler system may be connected to the domestic water supply, provided the required design density can be met. Be advised that Tucson Water will not allow a residential sprinkler system to be supplied by a 5/8" meter. A minimum of ¾" meter will be required by Tucson Water. Residential fire sprinkler system shall be installed in accordance with the 2012 IFC and NFPA 13D. |
