| 02/28/2019 | DAVID RIVERA | ZONING | REVIEW | Reqs Change | FROM: David Rivera PDSD Zoning Review Section PROJECT: T19CM00806, T19CM00809, T19CM00826 - 3 New Buildings Storage Use Group - Personal Storage - Related to DP18-0302 Building Plan Review (1st Review) Foothills Storage 4068 E Fort Lowell Road - Current Zoning is MH-1 Authorized to C-2 per C9-18-05 TRANSMITTAL DATE: February 28, 2019 DUE DATE: March 1, 2019 COMMENTS: Please resubmit revised drawings and any redlined plans along with a detailed response letter, which states how all Zoning Review Section comments were addressed. ***The building plans included all three buildings in the same set. Zoning did a review of the three building plans and the comments made are typical for all three at this time. 1. COMMENT: Zoning has reviewed the Building plans for compliance with the unapproved version of the development package included in the building plan package. While the building footprint and the site revisions are consistent with the approved DP as it relates to the zoning review purview (Building footprint, Height, square footage, site conditions etc.) zoning cannot approve the building plans until the 2nd Party Commercial Plans reviewers have approved the building plans. 2. COMMENT: The unapproved version of the DP must be removed from the building package set or they must be stamped as "For reference only see the PDSD approved, stamped and signed version of DP18-0302. 3. COMMENT: Zoning will review the building plans on the next submittal to assure that any revisions made to the building plans do not affect zoning requirements and that all 2nd Party Commercial Plans Reviewers have also approved the building plans. If you have any questions about this transmittal, Contact David Rivera on Tuesday or Wednesday at (520) 837-4957 or by email David.Rivera@tucsonaz.gov or contact Steve Shields, (520) 837-4956 or Steve.Shields@tucsonaz.gov RESUBMITTAL OF THE FOLLOWING IS REQUIRED: building plans |
| 03/01/2019 | PIMA COUNTY | ELECTRICAL-COMMERCIAL | REVIEW | Reqs Change | Reviewer: Charlie Bard Provide Outdoor Lighting Code calculations to show compliance with City of Tucson/Pima County Outdoor Lighting Code Table 401.1. Select a commercial option from that table and multiply the total lumens allowed for that option x the lot acreage; and multiply the total unshielded lumens x the lot acreage to ascertain the maximum lumens allowed and the maximum portion of the total that can be unshielded. Then, in tabular form, calculate the proposed total and proposed unshielded lumens for each fixture type, showing that the proposed lumens are no more than what is allowed. The lighting area for this parcel is E3. The City of Tucson/Pima County Outdoor Lighting Code Section 402.1 requires that the maximum color temperature of all exterior light fixtures is 3,500K. The light fixtures SD and SDE shown on sheet E0.3 exceed 3.500K and light EM has no information please correct. 2017 NEC Section 210.8(10) Requires that areas of basements not intended as habitable rooms to have receptacles GFCI. |
| 03/01/2019 | PIMA COUNTY | PLUMBING-COMMERCIAL | REVIEW | Reqs Change | Reviewer: Chris Anderson Please verify that the faucet for public lavatory LV shown in the Plumbing Fixture Schedule on sheet P1.0 will supply no more than 0.25 gallon per metering cycle per City of Tucson amendment to the 2018 IPC. |
| 03/01/2019 | PIMA COUNTY | MECHANICAL-COMMERCIAL | REVIEW | Reqs Change | MECHANICAL – COMMERCIAL Reviewer: Chris Anderson Submit heating and cooling load calculations summary sheets for each scheduled heating and cooling unit to justify the capacities indicated in schedules on sheet M1.0. Ref. 2018 IECC C403.1.1. Please explain why economizers have not been provided. It is not clear that any of the exceptions apply or that the heating and cooling efficiency has been improved 10% from what is required based on the COMcheck.

| 03/04/2019 | PIMA COUNTY | BUILDING-COMMERCIAL | REVIEW | Reqs Change | BUILDING – COMMERCIAL Reviewer: Chris Anderson The Code Analysis on sheet T1.0 indicates construction type “2B” under “Chapter 5, Table 503” and the fire resistance ratings for elements under the heading “Chapter 6, Table 601” are correct for construction type 2B. However under the heading “Chapter 6, Table 602” the labels and fire resistance ratings based on fire separation are for construction type 3B. What construction type are these buildings? Revise the code review to be consistent with the selected construction type. On sheet T1.0, the heading “Chapter 5, Table 503” is incorrect. There is no Table 503 in the 2018 IBC. Revise. On sheet T1.0 under “Chapter 5, Table 503” the allowable building height shown is not according to 2018 Table 504.3. For construction types 2B and 3B sprinkled, the allowable height is 75-feet. The 52,500 SF allowable area shown under “Chapter 5, Table 503” is, according to Table 506.2, pertinent to a sprinkled multi-story building. Because the first floor areas of Building 1 – 3 combined is 46,639 SF which is less than the allowable, all three buildings can be considered a single building for allowable area and fire-separation purposes as a single building. Please add a note to this Code review section stating this intent and the referenced Code Sections. Ref. 2018 IBC 503.1.2 and 705.3. On sheet T1.0, “Chapter 29” refers to Section 2907. There is no Section 2907 in the 2018 IBC. Revise to reference 2902.1. The plumbing fixture calculations on sheet T1.0 under “Chapter 29” uses an occupancy load of 253. The occupancy for the office area is not included so it is assumed that the restroom opening into the office is solely for staff use. And because the occupancy of the office area is less than 14 a single restroom is allowed for it. For the remainder of the spaces an occupant load of 253 is used to determine amounts of plumbing fixtures. Because the occupant load is greater than 15, separate toilet facilities for each sex are required by 2018 IBC 2902.2. Only one toilet room for customers is shown in the plans. The plumbing fixture ratio of 1 water closet and 1 lavatory for each 100 customers shown in sheet T1.0 is correct per Table 2902.1, however the calculation is not. 253 occupants/2 = 126.5 men and 126.5 women. 126.5/100 = 1.265 water closets and 1.265 lavatories for each sex. Rounded up to the next whole number in accordance with 2018 IBC 2902.1.1, 2 water closets and 2 lavatories for men and 2 water closets and 2 lavatories for women in separate restrooms are required. On sheet T1.1, item 1 in this 2-hour concrete block “assembly” refers the reader elsewhere in the UL directory to “concrete blocks” for eligible manufacturers of the concrete block allowed by tested UL Design No. U905. Please add this list to sheet T1.1 and to specification Section 04 22 00 Concrete Masonry Units on sheet A9.0. Also verify with the Structural Engineer that the masonry units allowed by UL Design No. U905 comply with his masonry specification on sheet S0.01. Per 2018 IBC Table 602, all of the west wall of Building 1 and a portion of the west wall of Building 2 shall be 1-hour fire-rated, assuming the construction type is 3B, as the distance from this wall to the property line is less than 30-feet. If the construction type is 2B no fire resistance rating is required. If the construction type of the building is 3B, the doors on the west wall of Building 2 shall be ¾-hour fire-rated. Ref. Tables 716.1(2) and 716.1(3). Glazing shall bear the fire-rated glazing marking shown in these Tables. On sheet SP1.2, The southern building is labeled Building 1, 1-story and with a height of 20’. Revise to identify it as Building 3 with associated characteristics. Ref. 2018 IBC 107.2.1. The Legend on sheet A0.31 has a rated wall designation. Another fire-rated wall designation must be shown in the legends for Buildings 1 and 2 floor plans to indicate locations/extents of 1-hour fire-rated exterior walls. This is only pertinent if the construction type is 3B. Add a listed 1-hour fire-rated exterior wall assembly to sheet T1.1 if the building construction type is 3B. Ref. 2018 IBC 107.2.1. On floor plans, the A1 sheets, exterior wall type 1 is described as 8” CMU. However, because these buildings are space conditioned with fan coil units their thermal envelopes (exterior walls, roof, fenestration) must be in full compliance with the provisions of Sections C402 of the 2018 IECC unless it can be shown that these are low-energy buildings in accordance with C402.1.1, and therefore exempt from thermal envelope requirements. Per C402.1.1(1) these buildings must be shown to have “a peak design rate of energy usage less than 3.4 Btuh/sf or 1.0 watt per sf of floor area for space conditioning purposes.” A “peak design rate of energy usage for space conditioning purposes” refers to the total peak primary energy used for space conditioning (heating or cooling). There are no limits placed in such buildings for the energy used for lighting or service water heating in determining whether or not a building is “low energy.” If it cannot be proved that these buildings are low energy, the following prescriptive design requirements apply and must be shown in the documents: Per Table C402.1.3 exterior mass (masonry) walls shall be prescriptively insulated with continuous R-5.7 insulation or have ungrouted cores filled with materials having a maximum thermal conductivity of 0.44 Btu-in/h-f2 degrees F. Metal framed walls must have a minimum of R-13 cavity insulation and a layer of R-5 continuous insulation. Ceilings shall be insulated a minimum of R-38 (the building sections and wall sections on the A5 sheets show R-30). Non-swinging (i.e. garage doors/roll up doors) opaque doors shall be minimum R- 4.75. Fixed fenestration shall have a maximum U-factor or 0.50, operable fenestration shall have a maximum U-factor or 0.65, and entrance doors shall have a maximum U-factor or 0.83. All glazed fenestration shall have a maximum SHGC of 0.25 on the south, east and west sides, and maximum 0.33 on the north side. Ref. 2018 IECC Table C402.4. On wall section 2/A5.31 there are notes pointing to the masonry wall that state “2x metal framing with R-19 batt insulation”, “stucco over 5/8” Densglass sheathing over metal framing”, and “metal panel over 5/8” Densglass sheathing over metal framing.” Are these notes appropriate for the masonry wall? Ref. 2018 IBC 107.2.1. On stair sections 5/A7.30 and 5/A7.31 show riser heights. Per 2018 IBC 1011.5.2 maximum riser height is 7” measured vertically between nosings of adjacent treads and per 1011.5.4 the tolerance between smallest and largest riser heights shall not exceed 3/8” in any run of stairs. The spacing of horizontal rails in guardrail detail 12/A8.1 shall be revised to show that openings between rails and between floor and rail are less than 4-inches clear so that a 4-inch sphere cannot pass through from walking surface to required height of 42-inches. Ref. 2018 IBC 1015.4. Please submit a City of Tucson Certificate of Special Inspections for all the special inspections required by the structural engineer on sheet S0.03. Foundations note 4 on sheet S0.01 states that the design basis for soils is 2,500 PSF at 2’-0” below finished grade. However, the referenced soils report limits the allowable bearing pressure at 2’-0” below finished grade to 2,300 PSF. Ref. 2018 IBC 107.2.1. Floor beam FB-2 is shown in the Floor Beam Schedule on sheet S1.20 as “double C8x2.5x12 GA” while the structural calculations specify “double C8x3x0.105 (12 GA)”. |
