(1) Informational Only.

A-102- 1697sf no slab/No RR
A-103- 1097sf slab and RR installed (Build Out)

3) Suite A105- Informational

Outside dining is indicated for suite 105.  If this ends up being an assembly (restaurant) two remote means of egress will be required.  Ensure that during that when designing, that the kitchen does not encompass that rear exit because egress is not permitted through a kitchen. 

In addition the front doors (doors 2) are indicated to have panic and the rear exit is not.  If the occupant load for the space exceeds 100 occupants the rear door will require panic hardware. 

5) Emergency lights

Suite 103 only shows 1 2x4 lighting fixture that has battery backup which by the front door.  Additional emergency lighting is required in the remainder of the space including the restroom. 

In addition the emergency light photometrics indicated on sheets E2.2 do not match the lighting plan on sheet E2.1.  Specifically the photometric shows emergency lighting for the whole building in compliance with the illumination requirements.  Whereas the lighting plan only shows emergency lighting for suite 103.  None is shown for the remainder. 

A revision will be required for the following information: 

Sheet E2.1
- Additional emergency lighting in suite 103.  I recommend utilizing additional 2x4 battery backup fixtures as you did for the one shown by the front door.
- Add additional emergency lighting to match photometrics or change photometrics.

Sheet E2.2
- Revise photometrics to match the emergency lighting indicated on the lighting plan (sheet E2.1.)

A hold has been placed on insulation for this information.     

7) In building radio enhancement system

This building is more than 10,000 square feet or, two or more stories in height requiring a third party contractor to conduct a two-way radio communication test in accordance with NFPA 1:11.10 and NFPA 72 (2013 Edition)  by the time of the 105 framing inspection.

NOTE: A copy of this report must be provided and submitted to our office as a revision before the 105 framing inspection.  A 105 Framing Hold has been placed until receipt of the revision.

Should the third party contractor’s two-way radio communication test pass at the framing stage, a copy of the third party testing documentation will need to be submitted for review. Once the documentation has been received, the 105 framing hold will be removed.

OR,

Should the third party paperwork indicate that the test is not satisfactory, the contractor will then have to submit a building permit revision. The revision will need to include: the unsatisfactory test paperwork, outline of corrective measures, and plans to illustrate the corrective measures to meet requirements provided by the design professional.

If the building is required to have an In Building Radio Enhancement System, at the Fire Final you will be required to provide the Fire Inspector the third party contractor’s satisfactory testing documentation following the installation and testing of the In Building Radio Enhancement System. A hold will be placed for this documentation at the building permit fire final.
