' Pete, <br /> Here are the detaiis I talked to you about on the phone about today. <br /> 1. Provide details for the radon system and location of the sump basket(s) <br /> We will be installing 2 sump baskets/ pumps in the crawl space ( locations to be determined ). <br /> There will be one 3" ABS passive Radon vent connected to one of the sump baskets and piped up thru <br /> the roof. <br /> 2. FYI if any of the ductwork for heating the house is outside of the building envelope duct testing is <br /> required. <br /> All of the ductwork wil! be Aero-sealed &tested whether in or out of the envelope. <br /> 3. Provide specifications for the connectors for the cast stone pieces. <br /> The Cast-stone pieces spanning 7'-10" or 9'-6" openings will be supported at each end by the brick. <br /> Masonry ties and split tail angles at panel ends will be used to connect to structural framing for lateral <br /> support. Please see attached sketches. Cast-stone pieces at openings iarger than 9'-6" will be <br /> supported by structural steel tube spanning the openings. <br /> 4. What codes is this building being constructed under, the structural plans reference the IBC. <br /> The building will be constructed under Minnesota Residential Code 2015. The structural design was <br /> completed under the IBC 2012 with Minnesota Amendments. <br /> 5. Special inspections are being called out so; <br /> a. Who is doing the inspections? <br /> b. What is the inspection schedule? <br /> c. I will need copies of the inspection reports, field notes and final assessments. <br /> Per the code the Special Inspector is to be hired by the owner. Special testing agency and inspection <br /> schedule will be provided when the agency is hired. <br /> 6. All details show the weather barrier being terminated behind the flashing, the water resistive barrier is <br /> required to terminate on top of the flashing per the 2015 Minnesota Residential Code Sec. R703.7; <br /> The details will be revised for the weather barrier to terminate on top of the flashing to comply with Sec <br /> R703.7. <br /> 7. Will the 1" space between the brick and the sheathing be grouted full or not? <br /> The 1" space between the brick and sheathing will not be grouted. <br /> 8. Will the ledger plate attached to the I-beams for the L5 X 5 X 3/8 for the brick ledge as shown 7/S6.2 be <br /> attached to the wood framing?Also what will be done at these similar locations for flashing and <br /> drainage? <br /> All the ledger angles are connected to vertical plates welded to a steel beam. None of the ledger angles <br /> are supported by wood framing. The flashing and drainage will be constructed to comply with Sec <br /> R703.7. <br /> These are very elaborate plans and I have spent 4 or 5 hours getting familiar with them and I hope I have <br /> caught everything that might come into question. I will be reviewing these plans more tomorrow so I will be in <br /> contact you as soon as possible if I have any more questions. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> City of Orono <br /> z <br />
