1) Edwards io1000D and Edwards io64 panels are indicated. Which is being used?
|

2) Visual appliances are required in all offices and all client living units per NFPA 101:9.6.3.5. Also provide visual and or audio devices in any workrooms, the saunas, med prep 424 (chair shown), and nurses office 423.

|
|
3) Where will the voice evacuation panel be located?
|
| |
|
|
4) Provide a courtyard plan. It is difficult to see based on how the plans are broken up into areas. See building 2 comments for the courtyards and apply the same philosophy to this building. Assume no reflection but direct line of site. Will verify coverage when you submit courtyard plan.

|
|
5) What are the square symbols with letters inside such as RM1, FTM, and TCDR? I do not see them indicated on the legend or by note.
|
| |
|
|
6) Indicate the distance from the ceiling for the sleeping room visible appliances. NFPA 72:18.5.5.7.2.
|
| |
|
|
7) No pull station indicated by front door. NFPA 101:32.3.3.4.2(1)
|
| |
|
|
8) No notification appliance indicated in kitchen 521.

| |
|
|
9) Looking at all section plans (A,B,C,and D) the horizontal corridor (left/right) does not show the strobe within 15 feet of the end of the corridor (where it T's with the vertical corridor). It appears by looking at 72 that the measurement is to the furthest point of the vertical corridor, not the closest. NFPA 72:18.5.5.5.5.
Also double check this requirement on Building 2 as well.

10) Informational Note
The corridors have minor alcoves which have some visible appliances indicated. Ensure that these devices are still visible from down the corridor by direct line of sight, not reflection. This will be verified at final.

| |
|
|
11) Demonstrate tie in to activate the lighting control devices (motion sensors) as indicated in NFPA 101:7.8.1.2.2(5).
