PERMIT STATUS
1/11/2013 – Review complete. Comments issued.
1/23/2013 – Responses reviewed. Comments issued.
Advisory Comment (no response required): This review is based on the requirements of the Anchorage Administrative Code (AAC), 2009 International Building Code (IBC), 2009 International Residential Code (IRC) and all adopted references thereto as amended by MOA. The following comments must be addressed before a permit can be issued. The approval of plans and specifications does not permit the violation of the codes, or any federal, state or local regulations.
1. TRUSS DRAWINGS
Reference the truss drawings. The truss drawings appear to be incomplete. AISI 214-07 section B1 requires all of the following information to be provide on the truss drawings:
A. slope, depth(s), span, and spacing of truss
Item remains; however please stamp each sheet showing this information. Generally all of the information required in this comment is shown on the elevation for each truss. WAB – 1/23/13
B. bearing locations and minimum bearing lengths
Item resolved. Response accepted. WAB – 1/23/2013
C. design loading(s)
D. nominal reaction forces and directions
E. location of all truss connections
Item remains. The response indicates that this information has been provided in the original package, but this information could not be located. The problem here is that location would be a distance horizontally and vertically from a known point. Please clarify the response. WAB – 1/23/2013
F. gusset plate locations, sizes, and material specifications (size as required is not acceptable)
G. fastener type, size, quantity, and locations
Item resolved. Response accepted; however see item E. WAB – 1/23/2013
H. shape and material specification for each component
I. maximum nominal compressive force in all truss members
Item remains. While the compression forces have been indicated, the web labels have not been identified on the truss elevations. Please clarify. WAB – 1/23/2013
J. locations of required permanent truss member bracing
K. Connection requirements for truss-to-truss girder, truss ply-to-ply, and field assembly of trusses
L. Calculated deflection ratio and/or maximum deflection for nominal live and total load
Item remains. This information must be provided for each truss as the actual calculated value. WAB – 1/23/2013
Where the item is not applicable please just indicate it as such in the response.
2. WEB BRACING
Several of the trusses require web bracing. Please provide a detail showing the lateral restraint of this bracing. Reference AISI 214-07 section B2(5).
Item remains. The requested information has not been provided. WAB – 1/23/2013
3. TRUSS ELEVATIONS
Please label each truss elevation so that the truss can be located on the layout plan. Reference AAC section 23.10.104.8.
Comment resolved. The file name appears to be the truss name as well. The reviewer will make this clear on the elevations for the inspectors. WAB – 1/23/2013
4. MODEL INPUT
Provide model input for all trusses so that loading, load combinations and end releases can be verified. Loading may be verified the easiest by providing the graphical representation of the loading. Reference AAC section 23.10.104.8.
Comment resolved. Response accepted. WAB – 1/23/2013
Please provide a written response to the comments and include one copy of additional or revise calculations, and two copies of additional or revise drawings. While not required it is extremely helpful to the reviewer if the response indicates where in the submittal each comments has been addressed.
All submittals should be sent to the permit manager.
