| 10/05/2017 | 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. |
| 10/17/2017 | KEN VAN KARSEN | BUILDING-RESIDENTIAL | REVIEW | Reqs Change | T17CM07401 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. GENERAL COMMENTS: 1. A dwelling unit providing complete independent living facilities requires compliance with design ordinances for handicap provisions, solar water (done), photo-voltaic and gray water preparations. Design Ordinances adopted by the City of Tucson. 2. All SFR and Duplex plans submitted after July 1, 2009 require a solar photo-voltaic system, or future installation preparation City of Tucson Ordinance #10549 with the following provisions: 1. A 4 square feet area for (meter, disconnect & inverter) equipment adjacent to the electrical service panel or near the proposed collector panel space. 2. The best roof space available for accommodating PV solar collector panels with capacity for collector dead loading (typically 4 lbs/SF). 3. A minimum 3,800 volt-ampere PV electrical load entry on the Service Load Calculation (Show as a continuous load of 15.8 A). 4. An Electrical Panel Schedule with a 240 volt circuit breaker space labeled "reserved for Photo Voltaic". See electrical comments. 3. All construction drawings submitted after June 1, 2010 for one- or two-family dwellings must provide gray water utilization or preparation, Ordinance #10579/11089 revised July 9, 2013. Include two clothes washer standpipes at an exterior wall, one with an above grade stub-out, and one plumbed to the building drain, or show a bathing fixture drain looped 3' beyond an exterior wall below grade before connection to the building drain. See details at http://pdsd.tucsonaz.gov/files/pdsd/codes-ordinances/Grey_Water_Options_FINAL_.pdf FLOOR PLANS: 1. Show a maximum ½" floor elevation change at a notated accessible route entrance on the floor plan, R106.1.1. Include the threshold condition at the vehicle doorway or an exterior hinged door when the garage is used for the accessible route. STRUCTURAL PLANS: 1. Show a beam size with appropriate load carrying capacity, R301.1. The GLB at the garage is undersized. 2. Buildings with framed walls exceeding prescriptive limits (12' in height) require a structural design by a registered engineer in the state of Arizona, R602.10; R301.1.3 & Arizona Statute 32-144.4. Also, a prescriptive braced wall panel design, R602.10 requires braced wall lines with maximum spacing of 60' and offsets no more than 4', therefore this building requires interior braced panels. SECTIONS - DETAILS: 1. Provide reference labels for the details on sheet A4, R106.1.1. 2. 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 or rigid board tight to the roof sheathing), R806.5. This condensation control provision is necessary for code compliance, and may be a single layer of air-impermeable insulation, or layered with batt insulation for achieving the total required roof R-value. MECHANICAL PLANS: 1. Show impact protection for appliances located in the garage, M1307.3.1. 2. Provide (an HVAC system with) whole-house mechanical ventilation with continuous or a minimum controlled intermittent airflow rate, R303.4 & M1507.3. Show a source of outside supply air or continuous exhaust fan function. 3. 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. Notate if the mechanical system calculations may be provided by deferred submittal. The deferred calculations must be approved through revision process prior to mechanical inspections. ELECTRICAL PLANS: 1. Hallways of 10' or more in length require a receptacle, E3901.10. 2. Show all receptacle outlets located within 6' of a (laundry) sink with ground fault circuit interrupting protection, E3902. 3. Show or notate a disconnect means or a locking breaker for the water heater, E4101.5. OUTDOOR LIGHTING CODE 1.

Include all exterior fixtures on the property in the calculations. Separately show the fixture wattage both full cut-off and unshielded styles for determining exterior lighting limits. INTERNATIONAL ENERGY CONSERVATION CODE: 1. Tucson is in climate zone 2B. Show the solar heat gain coefficient SHGC minimum value of 0.25, N1102.1.
