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.

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS:

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 2012 IRC with amendments on 1/1/2012. Show the current code reference on the plans. Update the outdated reference on sheet A-1.

STRUCTURAL PLANS:

1. Place the steel beam size and location on sheet A6 along with the engineer stamp, R301.1.
2. Specify the ICF evaluation report number and manufacturer, or show design compliance with all appropriate sections of R611 including identification of each story floor to ceiling height.

ELEVATIONS:

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.
2. Provide an attic space ventilation calculation and specify size and location of all vents needed to comply with R806.2 if using a vented attic design. Only applies to tiled roof areas with insulation at ceiling.

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.

ELECTRICAL PLANS:

1. Show or notate the requirement for a carbon monoxide detector outside of bedroom doors, when the dwelling includes an attached garage or gas appliance, R315.
OUTDOOR LIGHTING CODE

1. Show the proposed fixture as full cut-off FCO style, or provide an Outdoor Lighting Calculation including all exterior fixtures on the property for determining exterior lighting limits. Adjustable security light fixtures are unshielded, not FCO.

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 (R-30 with conditions) 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.
