RESUBMITTING:  Please make necessary changes and resubmit the complete permit application package. We do not accept responses to comments/ plans/ specifications through email. Contact Building department for resubmittals.

To help speed the review process you should include a written comment response summary to clarify or illustrate corrections on plans (bubbling, highlighting or notations are best).  Please use the Florida Fire Prevention Code 6th Ed for all code reference in a response to comments. The fire plans examiner does not use the Florida Building Code. You are required to remove old pages and reinsert the new pages.

The numbered items require a response or plans to be updated to complete the review.

2) An ENGINEERED signed and sealed Design Criteria for the fire alarm system over $5000.00 is required to be submitted with the general construction documents. FBC 105.3.1.2  We are unable to approve the plan until this information is provided. (The Design Criteria is not a full set of shop drawings.) THIS IS WHAT IS REQUIRED BY FLORIDA ADMINISTRATIVE CODE 61G15-32.008,(A-O) Design of Fire Alarms and Detection Systems.

If fire alarm will not be over $5000 provide letter from fire alarm contractor indicating cost.

NOTE: Page E401 shows alarm will be monitored, duct detectors tied in, 3 x type I kitchen hoods tied in, occupancy sensors.

At the time of fire final be prepared to provide a copy of manufacturer specification sheets to the fire inspector showing that each interior finish will meet:

- wall and ceiling finishes meet Class A and B in the lobby. 101:12.3.3.2

- wall and ceiling finishes meet Class A, B or C other than in the lobby. 101:12.3.3.3

- floor finishes meet either: a) ASTM D 2859 for carpet and carpet like materials or b) has a minimum critical radiant flux of .1 W/cm2 for non carpet flooring. 101:12.3.3.5.3

- combustible scenery of cloth, film, vegetation, fabrics and similar materials shall meet NFPA 701 OR have a heat release that does not exceeding 100kW when tested in accordance with NFPA 289. 101:12.4.6.11.1   101:12.7.4

If there are multiple finishes, label each spec sheet identifying each product, its location AND highlight the area showing illustrating it meets the applicable Code requirement.

4) The following items from the sprinkler design criteria are incomplete or unaddressed. An ENGINEERED sealed Design Criteria for a fire sprinkler system exceeding 49 heads is required to be submitted with the general construction documents. We are unable to approve the plan until all this information is provided.  FLORIDA ADMINISTRATIVE CODE 61G15-32.004, (A-M)

e) Page FP10 indicates "water main is shown on civil drawings". Again this is required to be identified on signed and sealed sprinkler design criteria.

f) hydrant butt coefficient

h)

i) again FP10 references see civil drawings. State of Florida required the sprinkler EOR to include this within sprinkler design criteria.
