SAFEbuilt Colorado Conditions of Approval To: Layton Construction Re: Full Building Permit Conditions of Approval The following conditions will be required to be addressed prior to construction.
Sufficient time shall be granted for review, response and approval before work is initiated. Building Department-The items listed within the building department comments are numbered
to correspond with the 3 round comment letter dated 08/21/2007. 46. Change the exiting from Vestibule 210A. It appears to exit through intervening room that is not accessory to the vestibule.
HGA Response: We submit that the adjacent space is accessory. Vestibule 210A services mechanical rooms and the service elevators. To exit from Vestibule 210A the occupants have to pass
through Vestibule 275A, which is basically for the spa staff, then through the CO-ED Lounge/Waiting area, then to hallway 279, then through exit passageway 293, then through exit passageway
297, then to exit discharge. The issue is that the CO-ED Lounge/Waiting area is not accessory to the mechanical rooms. It is accessory for the rooms off Vestibule 275A for the staff
of the spa but not the mechanical areas. Please change the layout accordingly. HKS/HGS Response (7/18/07): Vestibule 210A is purely circulation space and does not carry an occupant load.
This vestibule provides connection between the Spa and the service elevators, IDF Room 210, and Mechanical Room 257. Relative to egress, it provides the egress route for the one occupant
from IDF 210 and the one occupant from Mechanical 257 (as shown on A0.3.02). IDF 210, Mechanical 257, Vestibule 210A, and Service Elevator Lobby E-202 are considered to be part of the
overall Spa as they serve Spa functions. The service elevators stop at this location solely to provide connection to the Spa. IDF 210 houses audio-visual, telephone, and data system
equipment that specifically serves the Spa and must be accessed by Spa personnel. Similarly, Mechanical 257 houses the equipment serving the pools within Room 255 and must be accessed
by Spa staff. In summary, we submit that all these spaces are part of the overall Spa and are “accessory” to each other. Therefore, current layout provides egress that complies with
IBC 1013.2 as the spaces are accessory, are not hazard occupancies, and provide a discernible path of travel to an exit. This comment is in reference to the electrical room #212. Please

328-1791D:\Conditions_Of_Approval_Full_Permit.DOC 64. A2.03.1 – Wall tag both shafts located in room 304 (storage room). Wall tags must reference an approved assembly from the partition
schedule. HGA Response: Wall tag has been added. One shaft in room 304 does not have wall tags. HKS/HGS Response (7/18/07): The drawing has been updated to include wall tags for this
shaft. Still have one shaft not tagged Any duct that penetrates more than 2 stories will require a shaft and appropriate protection through the shaft wall. The architectural drawings
are substantially incomplete indicating vertical and horizontal shafts that match the mechanical drawings. Please coordinate the mechanical responses on the architectural drawings. 152.
Provide accessible parking spaces per IBC Table 1106.1. Providing 212 spaces would require 7 to be accessible, 2 of those to be van accessible. Verify 98” of vertical clearance for the
van spots. HGA Response: We submit that the number of accessible parking stalls complies with IBC Table 1106.1 and section 1106.5. The hotel is operating on 100% valet parking stalls,
with an additional 59 self-park stalls for fractional ownership, full ownership, and employee. Per Table 1106.1, 3 stalls are required for the self-parking, and at least one of the three
is required to be van accessible. Plan sheet A0.3.01 indicates there are 228 parking spaces. Spaces marked for Valet parking number 78. With those counts, Table 1106.1.3 would require
5 accessible spaces with one van accessible space. HKS/HGS Response (7/18/07): Per previous response, most of the parking spaces are valet only. There are 59 self-park stalls that will
be allocated to fractional ownership, full ownership condos, and employees. The drawings have been updated to identify each space as either valet or self-park. We submit that only the
59 self-park stalls are considered per Table 1106.1 and that the number of accessible spaces required are provided. Deducting the 78 Valet parking from the total spaces, you are still
required to add two additional accessible spaces for a total number of 5 accessible spaces. 155. All the massage rooms on the 2nd level are required to be accessible. Please amend the
toilet facilities, changing rooms, lavatories, tubs and the showers meet to accessibility requirements of the ANSI A117.1-98. (IBC 1109.14.3) HGA Response: We submit the Wet Massage
Suite #289 complies with the accessibility requirements of ANSI A117.1-98 (IBC 1109.14.3). All massage rooms on the 2nd level are required to be accessible. HKS/HGS Response (7/18/07):
We disagree that IBC 1109.14.3 requires that ALL spa treatment rooms be accessible. IBC 1109.14 pertains to “recreational facilities”. If the Spa is going to be considered a “recreational
facility” then it should be considered as a whole. As such, the Spa is accessible – it provides accessibility at the entry/reception, locker rooms, toilets, showers,

328-1791D:\Conditions_Of_Approval_Full_Permit.DOC whirlpools, lounges, treatment rooms, etc. We submit that nothing requires ALL treatment rooms to be accessible any more than ALL
lockers, ALL toilets, or ALL showers. Add grab bars at the tub in room 289 for accessibility. 167. We are unable to locate a designated accessible Type “A” condominium per Section 1107.6.2
of the 2003 IBC. As the condominiums are a different type of R-2 occupancy from the time-share units, an accessible Type “A” condominium is required. HGA Response: Since only 16 condominiums
are proposed, no Type “A” units are required. Refer to IBC 1107.6.2.1.1. With the condominiums, employee housing and timeshare units there are a total of 63 units classified as an R-2
occupancy group. Per Section 1107.6.2.1.1 Type A units shall be dispersed among the various various classes of units. Therefore a Type A accessible unit is required in each of the following
groups: the condominiums, the employee housing, and the timeshare units. HKS/HGS Response (7/18/07): To resolve this issue we have revised Condo #8 (on Level 9, sheet A4.28.1)) to be
a “Type A” unit per ICC/ANSI A117.1. Two accessible employee housing units and one accessible timeshare unit are already provided and indicated on the drawings. Comment 169-180 -Submit
a Memorandum of Understanding to the Town of Vail for approval by the Building Official to reference the 2003 ICC/ANSI A-117.1. If accepted by the town, please revise entire plan to
comply with the 2003 ICC/ANSI A-117.1 in its entirety. If not accepted please revise plans per 1998 ANSI A-117.1 and comments above. 169. In the accessible units in the guest rooms of
the R-1 occupancy, all bathing & toilet facilities are required to be accessible per Chapter 6 of ANSI A117.1. HGA Response: We submit that the accessible units include the accessible
bathing and toilet facilities and comply with Chapter 6 of ANSI A117.1. Plan sheet A4.07.1A and A4.07.1B for Unit PR-HC shows a raised platform in media room #116 which does not have
an accessible route. Also, bathrooms/rooms #103, #108, #109, #110, #133 do not show compliance for wheelchair turning space, toilet compartment size and clearances, grab bars, water
closet seat heights, accessible bathtubs and showers, bathtub and shower controls, accessible lavatories, and door maneuvering clearances. Show required clear floor spaces for all rooms.
HKS/HGS Response (7/18/07): The raised platform within Media 116 is intended to provide tiered seating within this “home theater”. We submit that an accessible route is not required
for this small platform as it is less than 25% of the overall room and the remainder of the room is accessible. While this room is not an “assembly” space, we submit that IBC 1108.2.4.1,
exception 2 provides guidance regarding this room. See below regarding accessible bathrooms. Plan sheet A4.06.1 for Unit 2KK-HC has bathrooms/rooms #103, #108 which do not show compliance
for wheelchair turning space, toilet compartment size and clearances, grab bars, water closet seat heights, accessible bathtubs and showers, bathtub and shower controls, accessible lavatories,
and door maneuvering clearances. Show required clear floor spaces for all rooms. HKS/HGS Response (7/18/07): See below regarding accessible bathrooms.

(7/18/07): We submit that only one accessible bathroom is required wian accessible hotel unit. This requirement is consistent with the federal standard – ADAAG Chapter 9. To interpret
IBC Chapter 11 as requiring that ALL bathrooms must be accessible is to raise the standard beyond the federal requirements. We submit that this is not reasonable, does not reflect industry
standard, and is not the intent of the IBC /ICC. Rather, we submit that the IBC /ICC intends to coordinate and correlate wstandards. As an example, we can examine the accessibility requirements
for condominiThe federal standard is the FHA Fair Housing Design Manual. This document allows condo units to be provided with one “Specification B” bathroom and that is the highest level
of accessibility. Similarly, the 2003 edition of ICC /ANSI A117.1 has been revised to better correlate to FHA and require that “Type A” units provide “at least one” accessible bathroThe
common thread is the requirement is for one or “at least one” accessible bathroom – not all. Sincaccessible bathroom it is reasonable to interpret the IBC’s requirements in the same
manOtherwise, all the hotel units would be held to a higher standard than the condominium units within the same building. In toilet and bathing facilities must comply with t #167. See
response to comment #167. KS/HGS Response (7/18/07): We request that ICC/ANSI A117.1 – 2003 be used as the n of d standards is that at least one bathroom, but not all, is required to
comply with 1003.11. Sections 1002.11.1 through 1002.11.7 of ANSI A117.1. Some Type “A” dwelling units have bathrooms which do not comply. Please clarify. HGA Response: Refer to response
to commen Happlicable edition relative to the “Type A” condominium. This is the most recent versioA117 and our research has found that the various revisions in Chapter 10 were intended
to correct the intent of various provisions and to better coordinate with federal requirements (FHA and ADA). Per 1003.11.1 of the A117-2003, at least one bathroom is required to complywith
1003.11. This correlates with FHA requirements (“Specification B” bathrooms) and Chapter 9 of the ADA. Therefore, we submit that the latest intent of the various codes an

that the 2 hour shafts from below terminate in these rooms. Rybka Response: Refer to sheet M4.06 (Part Plan Attachment No. M06). The Area 3A mechanical room is unrated, and the 2 hour
rated vertical risers through the building through the 8th floor slab. In order to avoid the installation of inaccessible fire dampers at the top of the riser, RYBKA have revised sheet
M4.06 to ductwork is to be fire rated in the attic space. Exhaust fans located in attic space are to be enclosed in two hour rated enclosures with fire-rated access doors for service.
The Area 3B mechanical room is a 2 hour rated room that ends at column line A14. The ductwork that extends to the south across column line A14 is 2 hour fire rated to avoid the installation
of fire dampers in inaccessible locations. Fire dampers are shown in the penetrations of the two hour rated Area 3B mechanical room, where ductwork exist the mechanical room. A) The
mechanical room on the 9th level over “AREA-03A”has not been addressed on the plan sheets. The partial ninth floor plan on 8 ½” x 11” indicate wrapping ducts. If duct wrap is used on
the fans then an engineer judgment is required from the wrap company indicating how it is to be installed on the fan housing and confirmation from the fan manufacturer that the fan will
function and not over heat. Rybka Response: Refer to Sheet M4.06. Exhaust fans located in attic space are to be enclosed in two hour rated enclosures with fire-rated access doors for
service. Ductwork is to be wrapped to provide 2 hour fire rating in attic space. (Refer to Details 6, 7 and 8 on Sheet M6.03). Provide architectural details rated enclosure. B) In the
mechanical room labeled 911 the rated walls do not appear to enclose the room entirely. The wall is labeled 30 minutes on the north end and the wall is labeled 1 hour where Trash 912
(above “AREA-03B”) is located on sheet A0.3.09. There are 3 duct penetrations in this area to be addressed, 28x10 S/E F/B, 24x18 G/e F/B and 24x14 S/A F/A T/B. Rybka Response: Refer
to Architectural Sheet A0.3.09 where Mechanical Room 911 is to be provided with 2 hour rating. Three ducts identified enter riser shaft from Mechanical Room 911 and riser is considered
to be connected to and form part of mechanical room and so no fire smoke damper is provided. The ducts in question enter a shaft in the floor below within Maid Room G-711. Fire/Smoke
Dampers are required where these ducts enter the shaft. One duct is not in a shaft. Please address accordingly. C) How will the 2 hour shaft assembly be maintained at EF-14 and EF-30?
If duct wrap is used on the fans then an engineer judgment is required from the wrap company indicating how it is to be installed on the fan housing and confirmation from the fan manufacturer
that the fan will function and not over heat. Rybka Response: Refer to Sheet M4.06. Exhaust fans located in attic space are to be rated for operation within rated enclosures by fan manufacturer
or are to be relocated within Mechanical Room 911. Provide architectural details for the shafts.

328-1791D:\Conditions_Of_Approval_Full_Permit.DOC 214. Add a fire/smoke damper to the penetration by the 8x6 duct that penetrates the 30 minute fire partition on page M2.08.1 on grid
line 11 and between A9 and A10. Rybka Response: Fire dampers are not required in one hour rated fire barriers per IMC 607.5.2. (Refer to Response No. 208.) This is not a fire barrier;
it is a fire partition defining a rated corridor. A fire/smoke damper is required for this duct. Rybka Response: Combination fire smoke damper is provided where this duct exits the rated
shaft. The response indicates an f/s damper has been added to the duct as exits the rated shaft. A smoke damper is required where it penetrates the rated corridor. 215. Fire and smoke
dampers are substantially incomplete; evaluate the entire mechanical plan for fire and smoke dampers per IMC section 607. Rybka Response: Mechanical floor plan sheets, sheets M2.01.1
thru M2.11.1 have been revised to show: Combination fire smoke dampers (FSD) or shunt duct* on rated shaft penetrations. FD in duct floor penetrations when no more than three floors
are penetrated, and FD on 2-hour rated wall penetrations. * shunt ducts per NFPA 90A (2002), Figure A.5.3. NFPA 90A is not an adopted document by the Town of Vail or referenced in
the IMC. The review team is not familiar with the term “shunt duct”. Fire smoke dampers are required at the shaft and corridor duct penetrations. (IMC 607.5.3, 607.5.4 and 607.5.5.1)
Rybka Response: The 2006 IMC now calls the use of 22” upturned sheet metal ducts in 2 hour fire rated risers as ‘sub ducts’. The provision of the ’sub duct’ is an exception to the requirement
that a combination fire smoke damper be provided where this duct penetrates a rated shaft, provided the exhaust fan is on emergency power. The use of sub ducts on the project is shown
in Details 6, 7 and 8 on Sheet M6.03. M2.03.1 – Remove designations for shunt ducts for the ducts run in the garage exhaust shaft. Rybka Response: EF-8, EF-43 and residential dryer exhaust
have been shown terminating in a vertical areaway (garage exhaust riser) that is always being exhausted by EF-1B on emergency power. It was agreed during the June TOV plan review meeting
that this condition is analogous to the ‘sub duct’ provisions identified earlier. The exception is for a fan to be at the top of the termination and that it runs continuously. Neither
of these has been met with the garage exhaust. These exhausts are not in Group B or R’s. 2. In Group B and R occupancies equipped throughout with an automatic sprinkler system in accordance
with Section 903.3.1.1 of the International Building Code, smoke dampers are not required at penetrations of shafts where kitchen, clothes, dryer, bathroom and toilet room exhaust openings
with steel exhaust subducts, having a wall thickness of at least 0.019 inch (0.48 mm) extend at least 22 inches (559 mm) vertically and the exhaust fan at the upper terminus is powered
continuously in accordance with the provisions of Section 909.11 of the International Building Code, and maintains airflow upward to the outdoors.

328-1791D:\Conditions_Of_Approval_Full_Permit.DOC The drawings are still substantially incomplete when labeling FSD’s. I will attempt to identify some locations. It will be up to the
design team to identify all locations. Rybka Response: HVAC floor plan drawings have been updated and FSD designations have been provided where ducts exit rated shafts. All drawings
are indicting F.D. on the bathroom exhausts where penetrating the shaft. There is an administrative modification request to eliminate dampers on the bathroom exhausts. Rybka Response:
HVAC floor plan drawings have been updated and FD designations at restroom exhausts have been deleted where ‘sub-ducts’ are provided per the administrative modification. The drawings
are indicating ducts from below and ducts from above. Please create a tag for sub-ducts and clearly mark the plans on all the ducts that are to be utilizing this system. M2.03.1 – There
are several duct penetrations in Corridor C-301 that are labeled F.D. these are required to be FSD. 2-8x6 ducts and 1-10x6 duct. Rybka Response: Sheet M2.03.1 has been updated and FD
designations have been deleted where not required. SD’s are required for the ducts serving the rated corridor. (IMC 607.5.3 and 607.5.4) M2.03.1 – There are several duct penetrations
in Corridor C-311 that are labeled F.D. these are required to be FSD. 1-8x10 duct and 1-12x6. Rybka Response: Sheet M2.03.1 has been updated and FD designations have been deleted where
not required. SD’s are required for the ducts serving the rated corridor. (IMC 607.5.3 and 607.5.4) M2.03.3 – Change all duct penetrations servicing corridors C-301 and C-311 to FSD.
Rybka Response: The IMC requires smoke fire dampers be installed in corridor walls that are 2 hour rated. Where the wall is not so rated, fire dampers and smoke fire dampers have not
been provided. If the wall is not rated, why provide a higher level of protection to the HVAC penetrations of the fire separation? HVAC sheet has been updated; FD designations have been
deleted where not required and FSD provided where HVAC ducts penetrate 2 hour rated risers. SD’s are required for the ducts serving the rated corridor. (IMC 607.5.3 and 607.5.4) M2.03.3
– All duct penetrations through the shafts are marked F.D. These are required to be FSD. There are too many to list individually. Rybka Response: HVAC floor plan drawings have been updated
and FSD designations have been provided where ducts penetrate rated shafts. There are multiple places that indicate FSD’s where an administrative modification has been requested to utilize
a 22” sub-duct. Please coordinate. M2.04.1 – Change all duct penetrations servicing corridors C-401 and C-411 to FSD. Rybka Response: The IMC requires smoke fire dampers be installed
in corridor walls that are 2 hour rated. Where the wall is not so rated, fire dampers and smoke fire dampers have have not been provided. If the wall is not rated, why provide a higher
level of protection to the HVAC penetrations of the fire separation? HVAC sheet has been updated; FD designations have been deleted where not required and FSD provided where HVAC ducts
penetrate 2 hour rated risers. SD’s are required for the ducts serving the rated corridor. (IMC 607.5.3 and 607.5.4) M2.04.1 – There is a 14x10 duct supplying
corridor C-411 missing a damper designation. The duct is near A9.9 and 11/11.4.

328-1791D:\Conditions_Of_Approval_Full_Permit.DOC Rybka Response: The IMC requires smoke fire dampers be installed in corridor walls that are 2 hour rated. Where the wall is not so
rated, fire dampers and smoke fire dampers have not been provided. If the wall is not rated, why provide a higher level of protection to the HVAC penetrations of the fire separation?
HVAC sheet has been updated; FD designations have been deleted where not required and FSD provided where HVAC ducts penetrate 2 hour rated risers. This duct has changed size to 12x8
since last review. SD’s are required for the ducts serving the rated corridor. (IMC 607.5.3 and 607.5.4) These are just a few of the un-complying damper designations, stopped review
on this correction. Again, fire and smoke dampers are substantially incomplete; evaluate the entire mechanical plan for fire and smoke dampers per IMC section 607. Reconfiguration is
still necessary. 216. Ductwork, pipes and electrical are prohibited in an exit passageways unless serving the exit passageway. It appears that above non-rated ceilings in the exit passageways
the space is being used as a plenum and contains construction elements not allowed, please address all exit passageways. Rybka Response: Mechanical services not associated with exit
passageways have been relocated. The review team’s interpretation of IBC 1020.5 is that any ductwork serving an exit passageway shall be a completely separate system from the rest of
the building and separate from all other passageways. Also, this system is required for pressurization. 1020.5 Penetrations. Penetrations into and openings through an exit passageway
are prohibited except for required exit doors, equipment and ductwork necessary for independent pressurization, sprinkler piping, standpipes, electrical raceway for fire department communication
and electrical raceway serving the exit passageway and terminating at a steel box not exceeding 16 square inches (0.010 m2). Such penetrations shall be protected in accordance with Section
712. There shall be no penetrations or communicating openings, whether protected or not, between adjacent exit passageways. Rybka Response: It is our understanding that only portions
of the building service systems that serve the exit enclosure are allowed to penetrate the exit enclosure. We note that IBC 1019.1.3, VERTICAL EXIT ENCLOSURE, VENTILATION, Item .2 permits
HVAC equipment (FCUs) to be located in the exit enclosure: 1019.1.3 Ventilation. Equipment and ductwork for exit enclosure ventilation shall ....where located within the building, be
separated from the remainder of the building, including other mechanical equipment, with construction as required for shafts. All ductwork serving the exit passageways shall be protected
at the point of penetration of the passageway with a fire/smoke damper. The passageway is an extension of the vertical exit enclosure that it serves and lesser protection is not allowed.
(1017.1) Rybka Response: RYBKA concurs, and have provided FSD where make-up air ductwork penetrates the exit enclosure. M2.03.1-There is a duct termination shown in Stair Q exit enclosure,
labeled “16x12 Employee Dryer T/A”. This is not allowed in an exit enclosure. (IBC 1019.1.2) Rybka Response: Sheet M2.03.1 has been revised to show routing of dryer exhaust so that it
does not pass through Stair Q.

328-1791D:\Conditions_Of_Approval_Full_Permit.DOC HKS/HGS Response (7/18/07): Revised drawings indicating fixed windows at these locations are included with this resubmittal. Since
this review, the Town of Vail has informed our review team that garage exhausts on the CO2 detectors are product-conveying outlets requiring being 10’ above grade, 10’ from openings
into the building and 10’ from property lines. The continuous fan is considered environmental, thus allowing 3’ from openings and 3’ from property lines. Please address accordingly.
224. Please indicate how the 18” flue from the gas ironer, on the 3rd level is routed thru the loading dock above on the 4th level. Rybka Response: Laundry gas-fired flat ironer vent
leaves the laundry room at level 3 (Sheet M2.03.1) and runs vertically through the building in a rated chase with fire enclosed offsets before being vented at the roof of level 11 (Sheet
M2.11.1). M2.06.1 – The flue pipe is indicating a 2 hour fire wrap through this level. Provide documentation that the wrap is listed for flue pipes and provide documentation that the
flue pipe being utilized is listed to be wrapped with insulation. Rybka Response: M2.06.1 has been revised to indicate that horizontal vents are to be enclosed in 2 hour rated drywall
enclosures and not fire wrap. Provide architectural details for the shaft. 228. Specify on the plans the location of EC-1, Type I fan for the kitchen. Rybka Response: Sheet M4.04 has
been revised to show Ecology Unit EC-1 in Ecology Room M-402A. Ecology Room M-402A as designed is a component of the grease duct enclosure. “The duct enclosure shall serve a single grease
exhaust duct system and shall not contain any other ducts, piping, wiring or systems.” Remove the other exhaust fans, ducting and electrical within the room not associated with the Type
1 duct. (IMC 506.3.10) Rybka Response: The 2 hour rated architectural enclosure of the Ecology unit has been reconfigured to that only the ductwork and equipment associated with the
commercial kitchen exhaust is contained within the Ecology Room M-402A. Change the architectural drawings to reflect the 2 hour wall and 90 minute door that is shown on the mechanical
drawings. 233. Indicate on the plans that the 36” dryer duct and the 18” flue from the Ironer are in a 2 hour shaft on the 6th level, page M2.06.1. Rybka Response: RYBKA concurs, the
36” dryer exhaust duct and 18” gas-fired flat ironer vent that both run horizontally at level 6 (on sheet M2.06.1) are to be in a 2-hr fire rated enclosure. M2.06.1 – The flue pipe is
indicating a 2 hour fire wrap through this level. Provide documentation that the wrap is listed for flue pipes and provide documentation that the flue pipe being utilized is listed to
be wrapped with insulation. (from comment 224) Rybka Response: M2.06.1 has been revised to indicate that horizontal vents are to be enclosed in 2 hour rated drywall enclosures and not
fire wrap. Change the architectural drawings to reflect the 2 hour shaft walls and details for construction. Please show compliance to IBC 707.11 for the bottom of the shaft housing
the 34” dryer duct.

328-1791D:\Conditions_Of_Approval_Full_Permit.DOC 234. Provide manufacturers instructions to verify the dryers in rooms 312 and 310D are capable of exhausting the developed length
shown on the plans. Rybka Response: Residential dryer exhaust system shown on Sheet M2.03.1 serving Employee Laundry Room 310D and Valet Room 317, with quantity five (4+1) dryer exhaust
connections to dryer exhaust EF-43 has been rerouted. In addition to the lint filter integral to the appliance, and auxiliary lint trap and cleanout has been shown on the common dryer
exhaust duct system before the duct leaves the Employee Laundry Room 310D. The entire length of the residential dryer exhaust duct is to be fire wrapped to maintain clearances to combustibles.
Discharge of laundry dryer exhaust is routed to exterior via connection to rated garage exhaust riser. Penetration is protected by fire wrap and minimum 22” shunt duct extended into
garage exhaust riser. In addition, RYBKA have specified a laundry exhaust booster fan EF-43 which is interlocked with dryer operation. Dryer exhaust ducts are required to terminate to
the outside the building and shall be equipped with a back draft damper, also clothes dryer exhaust ducts shall not extend into or through ducts or plenums. Route the dryer ducts directly
to the exterior with a back draft damper. (IMC 504.4) Rybka Response: Rybka will rectify this condition by showing the backdraft damper. The use of upturned 22” sheet metal sub duct
in 2 hour fire rated risers is an exception to the requirement that a combination fire smoke damper be provided where this duct penetrates a rated shaft, provided the exhaust fan is
on emergency power. In this case, Rybka submits that the garage exhaust areaway, to which this system is connected, is effectively outdoors, since the exhaust fan which ensures continuous
upward flow in the riser always runs (min. level of garage exhaust is required by code) and is powered from emergency circuit. The exception is for a fan to be at the top of the termination
and that it runs continuously. Neither of these has been met with the garage exhaust. These exhausts are not in Group B or R’s. 238. The Laundry Layout, page LA1.2, indicates a flue
pipe for the dry cleaner in room #317. Add the flue and the 2 hour chase to the architectural sheets and to the mechanical sheets, clarify that it does not pass through a plenum. Rybka
Response: RYBKA has revised sheet M2.03.1 to show dry cleaning machine exhaust fan EF-8 and ducted connection to outdoors. M2.03.1 -The termination is shown with a 22” sub-duct within
the garage exhaust duct. This is not to the exterior as required per IMC 502.7.3.6. The review team also is concerned that when the garage exhaust is not operating the fumes from the
dry cleaning can migrate to the garage. Terminate the dry cleaning exhaust to the exterior. Rybka Response: Response: The use of upturned 22” sheet metal sub duct in 2 hour fire rated
risers is an exception to the requirement that a combination fire smoke damper be provided where this duct penetrates a rated shaft, provided the exhaust fan is on emergency power. In
this case, Rybka submits that the garage exhaust areaway, to which this system is connected, is effectively outdoors, since the exhaust fan which ensures continuous upward flow in the
riser always runs (min. level of garage exhaust is required by code) and is powered from emergency circuit. The exception is for a fan to be at the top of the termination and that it
runs continuously. Neither of these has been met with the garage exhaust. These exhausts are not in Group B or R’s.

on grid line 10A and between 10.5/11. Rybka Response: RYBKA has revised sheet M2.08.1 and relocated the duct riser to the protected shaft in the North West corner of the Maids Room G-811.
See comment #215, smoke/fire dampers are required where the duct penetrates a shaft. Rybka Response: Rybka will rectify this condition by properly coordinating the duct offset/riser
transfer shown at this level with rated shaft location or rating requirements. These two ducts that transition between shafts that are not aligned between the 8th and 9th floor levels
are both to be shown enclosed in a 2 hour rated drywall enclosure, negating the need for combination fire smoke dampers, except where duct connections penetrate the shaft wall (one location).
The duct on this level is indicating 24x14 S/A(supply air) F/A(from above). The 9th floor level or the enlarged M4.06 does not show this duct. Please clarify. 245. Add a 2 hour shaft

and A8.2/A9.9. Rybka Response: RYBKA has revised sheet M2.08.1. See comment #215, smoke/fire dampers are required where the duct penetrates a shaft. Rybka Response: Rybka submits that
ducts that rise vertically through the building that are protected with two hour fire rated enclosures and are connected to a 2 hour rated mechanical room at the highest level do not
have a fire damper at the floor penetration of the mechanical room. Rybka submits that the 2 hour rated shaft enclosure is an extension of the 2 hour rating of the mechanical room fire
rated enclosure. There is a 24x10 duct shown penetrating the shaft connecting to the 28x10 duct within the shaft. Add the S/F damper at this location. (The architectural overlays indicate
a shaft too small to house the duct?) There is a 24x18 duct shown in this vicinity penetrating the floor/ceiling above. Please address with a fire damper. 246. Add a 2 hour shaft and
proper opening protection on all levels for the 8x10 duct on page M2.07.2 between grid lines A8.2/A9.9 and 10/10.5. Rybka Response: RYBKA has revised sheet M2.07.1. The duct has not
been addressed on all levels also see comment #215, smoke/fire dampers are required where the duct penetrates a shaft. Rybka Response: Rybka will rectify this condition by coordinating
the duct riser serving the elevator lobby for levels 7, 8, 9 and 10 and attic levels (Sheets M2.07.2, M2.08.2, M2.09.2, M2.10.2 and M2.11.1). Rybka will show a combination fire smoke
dampers at the penetration of the riser at each level where duct penetrate the shaft wall (one location each occupied floor). The response is indicting that fire/smoke dampers will be
added to the shaft, one on each level. The drawings have been changed to show fire dampers at the floor levels. The fire damper at the floor line is only allowed if the duct connects
not more than 2 stories. This comment stands, the duct in question has been changed to 12x18 on the 7th level. 247. Add a 2 hour shaft and proper opening protection on all levels for
the 12x6 duct on page M2.07.1 between grid lines A6/A7 and on grid line 4.2. Rybka Response: RYBKA has revised sheet M2.07.1, M2.08.1, M209.1.
