1) The engineer of record for this fire protection system, who set forth the sprinkler design criteria is Matthew D Lewis. The shop drawings were submitted with a seal from Suzanne LeVisureur. Per FAC 61G15-32.002(5)(6) after the Fire protection system engineering documents (Criteria) is submitted with the building plans, the shop drawings, when submitted, require no additional engineering input or seal. Please either: 2) Have Suzanne LeVisureur submit a registered letter to Matthew D Lewis notifying to reuse the already sealed contract documents therefore assuming all legal responsibility for the system in accordance with FAC 61G15-27.001. or 3) Have the owner or project engineer submit a letter to our office completely removing Matthew D Lewis as engineer of record for the project. or 4) Have the engineer of record provide a note on the shop plans they approve for design requirements and performance only.
