BUILDING DEPARTMENT COMMENTS:
Common Project Comments: (CPC are attached to each permit comment letter)
1. Land Swap with US Forest Service must be complete prior to final approval and issuance of the
Building Permit.
2. When plans are resubmitted for review; complete sets of plans for each building which includes the
addendum sheets. Separate addendum packets will not be accepted and approved for initial
permitting.
3. Preliminary plan review meetings had discussion regarding the submittal of Memorandum of
Understandings (MOU). MOU's defined in these meetings would be "used to define or clarify the use
of a code section, agreement to the installation of a system not covered specifically by the code or
clarify the use or component of a building. None of the agreed upon MOU's were submitted for
review. Please provide the following MOU's for review:
a) Use of assumed property lines and fire separation distance.
b) Fire command room
c) Smoke management system
d) Opening between parking garage and Lodge Tower parking garage
e) Fire separation between the new building and existing buildings
f) Use of 508.2 for creating separate buildings as it relates to each building
g) The separation between One Vail Place and new Skier Services
4. Preliminary plan review submittal meetings had discussion regarding the submittal of Administrative
Modifications (AM). AM's as defined in these meetings would be based on International Building
Code Section 104.10. Where practical difficulties are involved in carrying out the provision of this
code, a modification to the code may be granted by the building official after justification that the
modification will not lesson health, accessibility, life and fire safety, or structural requirements. The
following AM's have been discussed and are being implemented into the plans. Please provide the
following or amend plans accordingly to comply with the code.
a) Separation between Chalet buildings
b) Elimination of elevator smoke doors at residential levels of the Chalet buildings
5. Be sure to amend the Fire & Life Safety Report as necessary when changes are made to the plans
that may affect the discussions made by the Report.
6. Provide a precise site plan showing exact locations of assumed property lines. If locations of assumed
property lines are close enough to exterior walls to require rating of walls and opening protection,
provide details.
7. Fire and Life Safety Report states the use of 1 hour fire walls per IBC Table 705.4. This table does
not allow for 1 hour fire walls anywhere. Please clarify.
8. Fire walls are called out in the fire and life safety report to separate buildings. What is the purpose
and use of the fire walls and the separations? Is it to separate property owners?
It appears that fire separation distances are being used to determine the ratings for the walls
identified as fire walls between the different building and spaces. Our interpretation of this section is
that once the 3 hour separation is used to make a separate building then everything that is not
separated by a fire wall per 705.4 will be considered as one building.
9. Accessibility requirements do not appear to be included within any plan for this project. Please
amend plans to include the following:
C:\Documents and Settings\mroyerNy Documents\Plan Review\Front Door\tov-b06-002 1. DOC Page 2 of 15
a) Accessible parking spaces and loading zones.
b) Accessible route from the parking and loading zones to the buildings.
c) Accessible routes to each building on the site which are required to be accessible.
d) Signage details for parking, striping, routes, restrooms, etc.
e) Restroom details for fixtures, grab bars and accessories.
10. Amend plans to include stair signage plan, details and identify the location of the signage. Many of
the exit enclosures require the occupants to travel up to get to exit discharge. Clearly identify the
direction of travel to the exit discharge.(IBC 1019.1.6)
11. Amend plans to include gates located at the level of exit discharge to eliminate occupants of the
building from entering an enclosure and passing by the level of exit discharge. (IBC 1019.1.6)
12. Elevator door which do not open into a lobby need to be provided with a smoke control door in
accordance with IBC Section 715.3.5.3
13. Clearly identify the location of safety glazing per IBC Chapter 24 either in the window schedule or on
the plan.
14. The size of main elevator cars used for fire/emergency access needs to be determined by the Town
of Vail Building and Fire Departments. Standard 24" x 76" required by code will not accommodate the
stretchers used by emergency personnel. Please confirm the required size.
Architectural Comments:
15. These comments are assuming that the type of construction will be modified for code compliance
from Type IN construction to Type V-A construction. Provide a complete code analysis for this
building reflecting the changes.
16. Define use of stair DS01. Access from main level is through TOV service vestibule. Sheet G017 and
G018 show 142 occupants using stair. Exterior door from DS01 at grade swings in the opposite
direction of egress for 142 occupants. Door DS01 b from the lower level into stair DS01 is not shown
on electrical lighting as being used as an exit. Where are the 147 occupants coming from and if the
stair serves as an exit for 50 or more people door DS_ _ (door not labeled) must swing in the direction
of egress travel.
17. Identify door from Lower Level South Stair DS01. Door is not labeled.
18. How does the three hour firewall described in the LSR separating the lower level of One Vail Place
from the new Skier Services Building comply with section 705 IBC 2003. The wall must continue to
and terminate above the roof.
19. Door D011 a is shown as a 180 min door. This assembly has been recessed in and is no longer in the
same plane as the three hour wall. Walls framed back from the three hour wall to receive the door
frame are shown as one hour assemblies. These walls supporting the rated door frame must have the
same rating as the three hour firewall.
20. How will the pair of doors. D011 a maintain the three hour rating at the center where the doors meet.
Will an astragal or overlapping doors be used? Provide information from door supplier.
21. Provide additional emergency egress lighting to illuminate egress travel. Only one EM light is shown
in the break room. EM lights will need to be checked on ground level when sheet provided.
22. Sheet A101 Stair DS01 references 1/A700. This detail does not appear to be the right detail. Please
clarify.
CADocuments and Settings\mroyerNy Documents\Plan Review\Front Door\tov-b06-002 1. DOC Page 3 of 15
23. Restroom D112 needs clear floor space for water closet. Lavatory cannot encroach within the clear
floor space. (ANSI A117.1-1998 404)
24. Amend plan to show a 1 hour shaft enclosure around the fireplace located in Great Room. (TOVBR)
25. Doors located on accessible restroom stalls in Rooms D124A and D124B need to be located on the
approach/transfer side of the water closet. Door must latch or hinge a maximum of 4" from the wall
opposite from the water closet. (ANSI A117.1-1998 604.8.3)
26. Amend plans to show compliance with Reach Requirements at ATM machine shown on 3/A213 and
A103. (ANSI A-117.1-1998 707)
Mechanical Comments:
27. How will large shaft serving equipment in lower level be subdivided. Plans show one hour walls within
the shaft. Detail shows 5/8" sheet on one side of steel studs with 1" shaft liner on the other side.
Provide listed assembly and clarify why the 2 hour shaft is split into smaller shafts with 1 hour. These
walls should be 2 hour if splitting the large shaft into smaller shafts.
28. Plans show the vents from the boilers in the same shaft as outside air supply, Detail 3 sheet M010.
Vents shall not be in the same plenum as supply air. Clarify.
29. Sheet P103 references detail 4 Sheet P201 for continuation of gas line to fountain. Detail 4 does not
exist on sheet P201.
Electrical comments:
30. TVSS needs to have short circuit rating equal to or greater than the available fault current. Provide

Mechanical Corn Check
38. Provide load calcs per 1997 ASHRAE fundamentals or equivalent.
Electrical Energy Check
39. There is insufficient information to show compliance with IECC section 805.5.
Structural Comments:
Note: structural comments are numbered "S1,S2...... and are also given a designation with regards to the topic, as follows:
DC = design criteria; F= foundations; D = drawings; C = structural calculations; LS = lateral system.
General Structural Comment: Due to the inherent connectivity between the various structures in this project, there may be
comments from this Volume's details in other Volume's comments, and vice versa. Note also that this review and eventual
approval does not permit the violations of any section of the building code, or any other ordinance or State law.
S1. D, C General sheet G018, Volume 1: Note ground level floor in retail area has an occupant load
of 336 people, greater than the Building Classification limit of 300 people for typical occupancy
(IBC Table 1604.5); it appears Category III is required. Verify lateral and gravity designs are
adequate for the increased loads due to importance factors for Seismic, Wind, and Snow loads
(1.25, 1.15, and 1.1, respectively vs. 1.0 used). Verify other design provisions are also acceptable
as applied (static analysis is appropriate for seismic design, Seismic Design Category, etc.)
S2. F Soils report page 35 states "foundations adjacent to the garage should be lower to be
supported by natural soils. Some existing fill occurs in the area for this building. In our opinion,
the existing fill will not safely support a spread footing foundation system. The existing fill should
be removed and replaced with... engineered fill." Please verify that these recommendations are
reflected in the structural designs and the construction documents. Is note 8/S101 intended to
cover this recommendation?
S3. General comment: Please show that wind uplift loads have been addressed, and that a load path
is shown on the drawings to carry uplift loads on the roof.
S4. LS, C Ref Sheet S103 and Calculations L1-L13. It is unclear what combination of concrete
shear walls and wood structural panels are to be used to carry lateral loads, and how these loads
are to be distributed through the diaphragm to the lateral elements below. Please address the
following:
1. Please provide diaphragm shear diagram to verify that diaphragm meets demand.
2. Show that diaphragm chord forces that develop to carry lateral forces across long diaphragm
spans are carried by members shown. Indicate how chord forces are carried over gable ridges
and across valleys.
S5. LS, C Ref Calculations L5 and L8. Calculations ignore seismic forces generated in elevated
steel slab because it is "translated into foundation walls directly by floor diaphragm". Please clarify
this statement, and clarify explicitly that both diaphragm and walls indeed behave in this way,
especially where slab adjoins, and remains disconnected from, existing slabs, and where building
adjoins structure of building. Consider combination of lateral soil loads and seismic lateral loads.
C:\Documents and Settings\mroyer\My Documents\Plan Review\Front Door\tov-b06-0021.DOC Page 5 of 15
S6. LS, C Ref Sheet S102 and Calculations L5 and L8. Diagrams of cores indicate floor elevation
at 8182', where plan shows elevation at 8187'. Clarify effect of 5' difference in slab elevation on
lateral load calculations.
S7. LS, C Ref Sheet S103 and Calculations L11-L13. Diagrams appear to indicate the use of
plywood shear walls to carry lateral loads near grid 2.3. Please address the following:
1. Please provide diaphragm shear diagram to verify that diaphragm meets demand.
2. Provide calculations to show the demand/capacity ratio for the plywood shear walls, and
ensure that proper nailing is called out on plan or in notes.
3. Show how overturning forces in plywood walls are carried to the foundation (provide hold-
downs or other means of sufficient overturning anchorage)
S8. LS, C Ref Sheet S103 and Calculations 1-5-1-9. Calculations indicate that 35k seismic force
must be transferred from roof diaphragm to each of the stair/elevator cores. Please address the
following:
1. Please provide diaphragm shear diagram to verify that diaphragm meets demand.
2. In particular, please show that the plywood diaphragm capacity is sufficient in the areas near
the cores to carry shear demand greater than 800 plf.
3. Details showing the load path from the roof diaphragm to the cores have not been provided in
the drawings for the two south cores. Provide details that show this load path.
S9. LS, C Ref Sheet S103 and details on S301 and S302 regarding north core. Calculations refer
to the north core at grid P.4 and 4.9, but there is no indication here of demand placed on the core
from the skier services building. Please address the following:
1. Please define the lateral load demand on this core, in both NS and EW directions.
2. Ref details 6 and 7/S301. These details do not indicate any lateral load path to wall below.
Provide calculations and/or details to show that such a load path is not necessary, or revise to
provide. Provide detail and calculations showing complete load path for uplift loads, including
joists to timber beam below.
3. Ref detail 4/S302 Provide calculation to show that lateral load connection to the core is
sufficient to meet demand. Show that local diaphragm capacity is sufficient, or provide
elongated drags as required.
4. Ref detail 5/S302 Provide detail and calculations to show lateral load path from diaphragm to
core
5. Ref detail 6/S302 Provide calculations to show lateral load path from diaphragm to core is
sufficient to meet demand
6. Ref detail 7/S302 Provide detail and calculations to show lateral load path from diaphragm to
core. Provide connection of steel bucket to embed.
S10. D, C Ref Detail 10/S302. How is 2x6 connected to metal stud below, and how are uplift loads
carried? Verify "LVL header" at eave end will be protected from weather - LVL deteriorate rapidly
when exposed to weather.
CADocuments and Settings\mroyer\My Documents\Plan Review\Front Door\tov-b06-0021.DOC Page 6 of 15
S11. C Ref for example page R9 (in addition to remainder of roof calcs). Calculations do not appear
to take into account unbalanced gable roof snow loads. Many, if not most, roof timber beams and
purlins may be undersized. Please verify.
S12 C Ref page R9. Provide calculations for 8x14 members. These members and others seem to
have been sized by inspection, or in a typical calculation that is not referenced. Please clarify for
this and all "un-keyed" members on roof key plan.
S13 C Ref page R2. Typical joists are designed for flat roof snow load without consideration of drift
loads in accordance with IBC section 1608.8. Please provide explicit calculation showing that

S54 F S002 Section 12" Slab reinf extending vertical into turn down is not identified.
S55 D S003 Section 1: Section indicates steel beam sitting directly on an existing PT slab. This
steel beam can't act like a beam unless it deflects. The existing slab will prevent this deflection.
Suggest that 1" of compressible material be placed between the bottom of the beam and the
existing pt slab - pls comment. Also, connection of exterior wood wall to steel beam is not
defined, consider wind load transfer.
S56 D S003: Section 1: Also, this section appears to be cut on S102 @line N.3, where it appears
this steel beam seems to be on the wrong side of the existing cone wall.
S57 D S003: Section 2: This section is cut n plan sheet S102 near line 4.3. This plan indicates 3
steel members while section 2 indicates only 2 members - please clarify.
S58 D S003: Section 2: Apparently these (2) or (3?) steel channels are intended to serve as new
lintel beam over a wall opening that will be cut in an existing conc. wall. See Vol. 3 comments,
S20, similar.
S59 D S003: Section 2: how far do these channels extend past the jamb lines of the new openings?
Verify end connection can transfer beam reactions to (E) structure - provide calcs.
S60 D S003: Detail 1,2,3,5: The steel beam above the existing PT slab seems to be bearing directly
on the PT slab. This situation will prevent the steel beam from deflecting (see also comments
S19, S55)
S61 D S003: Section 1-7: Verify new loads on existing structure do not exceed the capacity of the
existing structural elements or soil bearing - provide calcs.
S62 D S003: Section 3: This section is also cut on sheet S102 near line N.3. This plan shows a
W14x26 spanning from a concrete wall to a new C5 column. On the other hand, section 3 says
the W14 bears directly on the pt slab and stops before it reaches the C5 column. Please clarify
section. Also, clarify the bearing condition at (E) wall where W14 and aligned W16x100 meet.
S63 D S003 Section 3: The section says use caution when drilling expansion bolts - the intent of the
bearing plate is not clear. No attachment is shown from beam to bearing plate, verify if this is
done to eliminate lateral connectivity of the existing and new structures.

A
Land Swap with US Forest Service must be complete prior to final approval and issuance of the
Building Permit.
The agreement was signed on January 18"', 2006 and is now in a 45 day review period.
2. When plans are resubmitted for review; complete sets of plans for each building which includes the
addendum sheets. Separate addendum packets will not be accepted and approved for initial
permitting.
Plans have been modified and are to be resubmitted for the Town of Vail Building and Fire
Department review, approval and issuance of a permit.
3. Preliminary plan review meetings had discussion regarding the submittal of Memorandum of
Understandings (MOU). MOU's defined in these meetings would be "used to define or clarify the use
of a code section, agreement to the installation of a system not covered specifically by the code or
clarify the use or component of a building. None of the agreed upon MOU's were submitted for
review. Please provide the following MOU's for review:
a) Use of assumed property lines and fire separation distance.
b) Fire command room
c) Smoke management systems
d) Opening between parking garage and Lodge Tower parking garage
e) Fire separation between the new building and existing buildings
f) Use of 508.2 for creating separate buildings as it relates to each building
g) The separation between One Vail Place and new Skier Services
A Memorandum of Understanding dated April 3, 2006 addressing these issues has been completed
and will be submitted to the Building, Fire Department and Colorado Code Inspection for review and
approval.
4. Preliminary plan review submittal meetings had discussion regarding the submittal of Administrative
Modifications (AM). AM's as defined in these meetings would be based on International Building
Code Section 104.10. Where practical difficulties are involved in carrying out the provision of this
code, a modification to the code may be granted by the building official after justification that the
modification will not lesson health, accessibility, life and fire safety, or structural requirements. The
following AM's have been discussed and are being implemented into the plans. Please provide the
following or amend plans accordingly to comply with the code.
a) Separation between Chalet buildings
b) Elimination of elevator smoke doors at residential levels of the Chalet buildings
A Request for Administrative Modification dated April 3, 2006 addressing these issues has been
completed and will be submitted to the Building, Fire Department and Colorado Code Inspection for
review and approval.
5. Be sure to amend the Fire & Life Safety Report as necessary when changes are made to the plans
that may affect the discussions made by the Report.
An updated Life Safety Report for The Vail Front Door Buildings A, B, C and D dated April 3, 2006
has been completed and coordinated with the G - Series Code Drawings. This report and
attachments will be submitted to the Building, Fire Department and Colorado Code Inspection for
review and approval.
6. Provide a precise site plan showing exact locations of assumed property lines. If locations of assumed
property lines are close enough to exterior walls to require rating of walls and opening protection,
provide details.
C:AD000ME-I\dhopp\LOCALS-I\Temp\D -Response to ToV-b06-0021. DOC Page 2 of 2
4240 has updated the G - Series Code Drawings indicating the locations of property lines and
assumed property lines.
7. Fire and Life Safety Report states the use of 1-hour fire walls per IBC Table 705.4. This table does
not allow for 1 hour fire walls anywhere. Please clarify.
The Life Safety Report has been modified to reflect the approach taken for the building separations.
As indicated in the report numerous meetings were held with the building and fire department
identifying buildings, construction types and openings. The buildings and proximity to the property
lines will not meet the prescriptive requirements of the building code. The design team has identified
on the G - Series Code Drawings that the project will use a variety of 3-hour horizontal and vertical
fire resistive separations as well as 2-hour and 1-hour occupancy separation walls. This approach of
compartmentation with the use of automatic sprinkler protection and detection though-out will not
compromise the life safety of the occupants.
8. Fire walls are called out in the fire and life safety report to separate buildings. What is the purpose
and use of the fire walls and the separations? Is it to separate property owners?
It appears that fire separation distances are being used to determine the ratings for the walls
identified as fire walls between the different building and spaces. Our interpretation of this section is
that once the 3 hour separation is used to make a separate building then everything that is not
separated by a fire wall per 705.4 will be considered as one building.
The Life Safety Report has been modified to reflect the approach taken for the building separations.
As indicated in the report numerous meetings were held with the building and fire department
identifying buildings, construction types and openings. The buildings and proximity to the property
lines will not meet the prescriptive requirements of the building code. The design team has identified

fire resistive separations as well as 2-hour and 1-hour occupancy separation walls. This approach of
compartmentation with the use of automatic sprinkler protection and detection though-out will not
compromise the life safety of the occupants.
9. Accessibility requirements do not appear to be included within any plan for this project. Please
amend plans to include the following:
a) Accessible parking spaces and loading zones.
b) Accessible route from the parking and loading zones to the buildings.
c) Accessible routes to each building on the site which are required to be accessible.
d) Signage details for parking, striping, routes, restrooms, etc.
e) Restroom details for fixtures, grab bars and accessories.
The drawings have been modified to show accessible parking spaces and loading zones, accessible
routes and confirmed that restroom details for fixtures, grab bars and accessories has been provided.
All signs related to accessibility are listed in a separate contract with the client and will be a deferred
submittal to the building for review and approval.
10. Amend plans to include stair signage plan, details and identify the location of the signage. Many of
the exit enclosures require the occupants to travel up to get to exit discharge. Clearly identify the
direction of travel to the exit discharge.(IBC 1019.1.6)
The design team will modify the drawings to reflect required stair signage and directional signage. It
would be the intent of the design team to identify with the fire department additional egress signage or
directional signage to ensure occupants will be directed to a an egress stair/passage way and to a
public way.
11. Amend plans to include gates located at the level of exit discharge to eliminate occupants of the
building from entering an enclosure and passing by the level of exit discharge. (IBC 1019.1.6)
Gates have been added to the plans to meet this requirement and direct occupants to the exterior or
from continuing below or above a level of exit discharge.

12. Elevator door which do not open into a lobby need to be provided with a smoke control door in
accordance with IBC Section 715.3.5.3
None of the elevators penetrate more than 3 stories. Thus, smoke control and venting is not required.
13. Clearly identify the location of safety glazing per IBC Chapter 24 either in the window schedule or on
the plan.
Bldg. B: Per A610 for window types with tempered glazing and reference building elevations for
location of such window types.
Bldg. C: Per A610 & A611, tempered glazing is indicated aVin the following locations:
- within 24" of door edges that are less than 60" AFF.
- within units that have panes greater than 9 s.f.
- and in units that are within 18" of the floor.
See the updated window schedule that shows additional tempered glazing for units with panes
greater than 9 s.f.
Bldg D: Per A610, tempered glazing is indicated at/in the following locations:
- within 24" of door edges that are less than 60" AFF.
- within units that have panes greater than 9 s.f.
- and in units that are within 18" of the floor.
See the updated window schedule that shows additional tempered glazing for units with panes
greater than 9 s.f.
Bldg. E: Per A610 for window types with tempered glazing and reference building elevations for
location of such window types.
14. The size of main elevator cars used for fire/emergency access needs to be determined by the Town
of Vail Building and Fire Departments. Standard 24" x 76" required by code will not accommodate the
stretchers used by emergency personnel. Please confirm the required size.
The elevator cabs are currently designed to comply with the standard stretcher requirement as
adopted by the code. In the case of the Chalets the elevator serves 4 levels or 3 stories. Based on
that interpretation the stretcher accessible would not be required. The design team is providing a
stretcher accessible elevator to each unit beyond what would be required by code. The current
elevators will be 24x74 inches.
Architectural Comments:
15. These comments are assuming that the type of construction will be modified for code compliance
from Type I-V construction to Type V-A construction. Provide a complete code analysis for this
building reflecting the changes.
See G-006 dated 04.03.06. Please note that section 506 has been applied to Skier Services for the
allowable area increase. In addition, we are applying the exemption of the 1-hour required ratings for
the Type VA because the building has a fire sprinkler system.
16. Define use of stair DS01. Access from main level is through TOV service vestibule. Sheet G017 and
G018 show 142 occupants using stair. Exterior door from DS01 at grade swings in the opposite
direction of egress for 142 occupants. Door DS01 b from the lower level into stair DS01 is not shown
on electrical lighting as being used as an exit. Where are the 147 occupants coming from and if the
stair serves as an exit for 50 or more people door DS_ _ (door not labeled) must swing in the direction
of egress travel.
The intent is to provide egress for the garage below, lower level Skier Services and the area of the
Lodge at Vail that can exit out of the building onto the road. These occupants would enter the stair
DS01 thru doors DS_ _ and DS01 b, the doors at the loading dock, go up a flight, discharge at the
grade level between One Vail Place and main level Skier Services, and thru the ToV services
vestibule D117. Also see E201 for the exit light adjustments.

17. Identify door from Lower Level South Stair DS01. Door is not labeled.
See A101 dated 04.03.06 and updated door schedule.
18. How does the three hour firewall described in the LSR separating the lower level of One Vail Place
from the new Skier Services Building comply with section 705 IBC 2003. The wall must continue to
and terminate above the roof.
See MOU dated 04.03.06 for clarification. The Life Safety Report has been modified to reflect the
approach taken for the building separations. As indicated in the report numerous meetings were held
with the building and fire department identifying buildings, construction types and openings. The
buildings and proximity to the property lines will not meet the prescriptive requirements of the building
code. The design team has identified on the G - Series Code Drawings that the project will use a
variety of 3-hour horizontal and vertical fire resistive separations as well as 2-hour and 1-hour
occupancy separation walls. This approach of compartmentation with the use of automatic sprinkler
protection and detection though out will not compromise the life safety of the occupants.
19. Door D011 a is shown as a 180 min door. This assembly has been recessed in and is no longer in the
same plane as the three hour wall. Walls framed back from the three hour wall to receive the door
frame are shown as one hour assemblies. These walls supporting the rated door frame must have the
same rating as the three hour firewall.
See G-017 and A101 dated 04.03.06 for the 3-hour wall locations.
20. How will the pair of doors. D011 a maintain the three hour rating at the center where the doors meet.
Will an astragal or overlapping doors be used? Provide information from door supplier.
Per spec section 08710-40, hardware set D16 indicates an astragal.
21. Provide additional emergency egress lighting to illuminate egress travel. Only one EM light is shown
in the break room. EM lights will need to be checked on ground level when sheet provided.
22. Sheet A101 Stair DS01 references 1/A700. This detail does not appear to be the right detail. Please
clarify.
It should read 2/A700. See corrected sheet A101 dated 04.03.06.
23. Restroom D112 needs clear floor space for water closet. Lavatory cannot encroach within the clear
floor space. (ANSI A117.1-1998 404)
See A103 and A300 dated 04.03.06.
24. Amend plan to show a 1 hour shaft enclosure around the fireplace located in Great Room. (TOVBR)
See G018 and A800 dated 04.03.06.
25. Doors located on accessible restroom stalls in Rooms D124A and D124B need to be located on the
approach/transfer side of the water closet. Door must latch or hinge a maximum of 4" from the wall
opposite from the water closet. (ANSI A117.1-1 998 604.8.3)
See A300 dated 04.03.06.
26. Amend plans to show compliance with Reach Requirements at ATM machine shown on 3/A213 and
A103. (ANSI A-117.1-1998 707)
See #4 and #5 on sheet A300 dated 04.03.06.
Mechanical Comments:
27. How will large shaft serving equipment in lower level be subdivided. Plans show one hour walls within
the shaft. Detail shows 5/8" sheet on one side of steel studs with 1" shaft liner on the other side.
Provide listed assembly and clarify why the 2 hour shaft is split into smaller shafts with 1 hour. These
walls should be 2 hour if splitting the large shaft into smaller shafts.
C:\DOCUME-1\dhopp\LOCALS-1\Temp\D - Response to ToV-b06-0021.DOC Page 5 of 5
Shaft Construction has become 2hour ratings.
28. Plans show the vents from the boilers in the same shaft as outside air supply, Detail 3 sheet M010.
Vents shall not be in the same plenum as supply air. Clarify.
Boiler vent termination has been moved to cooling towner pit. Re: Enlarged boiler room mechanical
plan, M010.
29. Sheet P103 references detail 4 Sheet P201 for continuation of gas line to fountain. Detail 4 does not
exist on sheet P201.
Could not find reference indicated. P103 shows gas piping in its entirety and no reference to P201.
Electrical comments:
30. TVSS needs to have short circuit rating equal to or greater than the available fault current. Provide
rating and calculations.
Calculations for available fault current at TVSS and specification of short circuit rating have been
added, see sheet E002.
31. Panic hardware required on electrical room doors where equipment is rated 1200 amperes or more,
provide door schedule to verify. NEC 110.26.C.2
Building D does not have any electrical rooms with 1200A "Large Equipment" as defined by NEC
110.26.C.2.
32. Provide name plate rating for generator.
Nameplate information will not be available until contractor selects generator manufacturer.
Specification section 16403 1.04 has been revised to add a note that submittals shall include
nameplate rating as designated in NEC section 445.13.
33. Hardwiring of equipment (E301) key 203 requires lockable disconnect or locking means on breakers.
NEC 422.31
Item 203 is a blender station that consists of a duplex receptacle. The appliances are cord and plug
connected to the duplex receptacle, not permanently connected. The kitchen equipment schedule
has been revised to place this receptacle on a single circuit L3S-39 rather than two circuits as
previously shown. Combined load of 1/6 HP and 10A is 7.4A on 20A1 P circuit.
34. Grounding electrode conductors to be bonded on both ends if installed in metal conduit.
Specification 16450.2.01.13 states "Grounding systems shall be installed in accordance with the
requirements of the local authorities, NEC Section 250, and subject to the approval of the
Arch itect/Engineer." Per this statement, the Contractor is required to comply with stated grounding
requirement.
35. Snow melting equipment shall be evident by the posting of appropriate caution signs or markings
where clearly visible. NEC 426.13
Caution sign/visible marking note has been added to heat trace notes on E105.
36. Provide an electrical lighting plan for ground level.
See drawing E203.

Electrical Energy Check
39. There is insufficient information to show compliance with IECC section 805.5.
Buildings A, C and D share a common electrical service. The combined lighting wattage for this
service is within compliance, see original letter issued with Com Check calculations. Due to
limitations within the Com Check program the three calculations could not be combined. This was
due to the garage not being eligible to be calculated as an individual space. In an effort to bring
Building C closer to individual compliance the lighting load has been reduced from 18,797 watts to
17,013 watts on the modified drawings. See the modified Com Check report for Building C.

BUILDING DEPARTMENT COMMENTS:
Common Project Comments: (CPC are attached to each permit comment letter)
The first fourteen comments have been removed from the beginning of all documents except
associated building permit application number B06-0018. Of the 14 some have been
addressed and remove from the list.
Architectural Comments:
16. Define use of stair DS01. Access from main level is through TOV service vestibule. Sheet G017 and
G018 show 142 occupants using stair. Exterior door from DS01 at grade swings in the opposite
direction of egress for 142 occupants. Door DS01 b from the lower level into stair DS01 is not shown
on electrical lighting as being used as an exit. Where are the 147 occupants coming from and if the
stair serves as an exit for 50 or more people door DS_ _ (door not labeled) must swing in the direction
of egress travel.
As described in the response; all occupants will leave the exit enclosure at the upper level and
exit the building through the elevator foyer. Please explain by exit loading, fire-resistive
construction and code reference that allow this configuration to occur. It appears that the
exceptions in IBC 1023 are being utilized in lieu of providing direct access to the exterior of
the building from the exit enclosure. If using this exception, please identify which and clearly
show compliance by identifying the fire-resistive ratings.
18. How does the three hour firewall described in the LSR separating the lower level of One Vail Place
from the new Skier Services Building comply with section 705 IBC 2003. The wall must continue to
and terminate above the roof.
Any designs which are shown on the plans and do not comply with the code must be applied
for in the form of an Administrative Modification and not a Memorandum of Understanding as
described in the response. If it is not possible to construct this wall as described and required
by the Building Code then submit an Administrative Modification clearly identifying the issues,
code sections, and alternative construction, safeguards to fire and life safety and justification
for the modification. It was agreed in the 0510212006 meeting that if compliance with the IBC
then this will be submitted for review as an Administrative Modification.
19. Door D011 a is shown as a 180 min door. This assembly has been recessed in and is no longer in the
same plane as the three hour wall. Walls framed back from the three hour wall to receive the door
frame are shown as one hour assemblies. These walls supporting the rated door frame must have the
same rating as the three hour firewall.
Sheet G-017 is small scale and less detail then sheet A101. Clearly show the rating of all walls
on sheet A101 that are utilized to provide the 3 hour separation. Provide wall tags or another
method of clear representation.
Mechanical Comments:
27. How will large shaft serving equipment in lower level be subdivided. Plans show one hour walls within
the shaft. Detail shows 5/8" sheet on one side of steel studs with 1" shaft liner on the other side.
Provide listed assembly and clarify why the 2 hour shaft is split into smaller shafts with 1 hour. These
walls should be 2 hour if splitting the large shaft into smaller shafts.
Please amend architectural plan to coincide with the mechanical plan for location shaft wall
locations. Each discipline shows different shaft wall locations.
29. Sheet P103 references detail 4 Sheet P201 for continuation of gas line to fountain. Detail 4 does not
exist on sheet P201.

This item was not addressed. Please respond accordingly to this comment. Your response
was "4240 to answer."
The Town of Vail recently established the heating degree days and cooling degree days for a
base of 65 degrees. The numbers provided are:
Heating degree days (base 65 degree F): 9826
Cooling degree days (base 65 degree F): 3
1 apologize for the notice of these numbers; however I have been instructed to pass this
information on and require modification of the Envelop Compliance Certificate and design.
Amend reports to reflect the design criteria established by the Town of Vail.
Structural Comments:
Note: structural comments are numbered "S1,S2...... and are also given a designation with regards to the topic, as follows:
DC = design criteria; F= foundations; D = drawings; C = structural calculations; LS = lateral system.
General Structural Comment: Due to the inherent connectivity between the various structures in this project, there may be
comments from this Volume's details in other Volume's comments, and vice versa. Note also that this review and eventual
approval does not permit the violations of any section of the building code, or any other ordinance or State law.
S1. D, C General sheet G018, Volume 1: Note ground level floor in retail area has an occupant load
of 336 people, greater than the Building Classification limit of 300 people for typical occupancy
(IBC Table 1604.5); it appears Category III is required. Verify lateral and gravity designs are
adequate for the increased loads due to importance factors for Seismic, Wind, and Snow loads
(1.25, 1.15, and 1. 1, respectively vs. 1.0 used). Verify other design provisions are also acceptable
as applied (static analysis is appropriate for seismic design, Seismic Design Category, etc.)
M&N Response:
We respectfully disagree with your interpretation of the IBC 2003 Code. We interpret
the classification to include 300 people in "one area" such as an assembly hall. We do
not feel that there would be "a substantial hazard to human life in the event of failure".
We do not agree that this building falls in this category just because of the size of the
retail area. If this were true, every single level, retail building of more than 10,000
square feet with 30 feet square feet per person allowed would be in Category III. We do
not believe that this is the intent of the code.
KL&A, 515106: While the EOR's response is perhaps a reasonable argument, this requires a
code variance from the Town of Vail; the IBC provision referenced does not distinguish
between different intended usage for the "one area." We suggest holding a meeting to
discuss and resolve this issue, as required.

S4. LS, C Ref Sheet S103 and Calculations 1-1-1-13. It is unclear what combination of concrete
shear walls and wood structural panels are to be used to carry lateral loads, and how these loads
are to be distributed through the diaphragm to the lateral elements below. Please address the
following:
1. Please provide diaphragm shear diagram to verify that diaphragm meets demand.
2. Show that diaphragm chord forces that develop to carry lateral forces across long diaphragm
spans are carried by members shown. Indicate how chord forces are carried over gable ridges
and across valleys.
M&N Response:
See attached revised calculations. The loads are distributed to the core walls and shear
walls based on tributary widths of the flexible diaphragm. The chord forces are carried
by the roof beam members at the diaphragm edges.
KL&A, 515106: 1) Calculations resubmitted are unchanged from the original
submittal. Verify the designs accommodate R=4.0 instead of 5.0 on the original drawings
(per change to S001). New calculations appear to show a shear diagram only for Level 2 at
grade. The general procedures for the Level 2 shear and moment diagram appear to follow
engineering principles, FOR please confirm other levels were similarly calculated.
2) Chord forces in roof and main level members must travel through framing
member connections, verify connections are oversized sufficiently for this additional chord
axial load. At building bends (i.e. K.2 line), verify diagonal components of chord forces
have been considered on each side of the bend.
S6. LS, C Ref Sheet S102 and Calculations L5 and L8. Diagrams of cores indicate floor elevation
at 8182', where plan shows elevation at 8187'. Clarify effect of 5' difference in slab elevation on
lateral load calculations.
M&N Response:
Loads are translated through columns from level 8187'-0" to level 8184'-6" to level
8182'-0".
KL&A, 515106: Verify that P/M interaction of the column is OK. Consider deflection
compatibility and fire rating / finish of the separation wall.
S7. LS, C Ref Sheet S103 and Calculations 1-11-1-13. Diagrams appear to indicate the use of
plywood shear walls to carry lateral loads near grid 2.3. Please address the following:
1. Please provide diaphragm shear diagram to verify that diaphragm meets demand.
2. Provide calculations to show the demand/capacity ratio for the plywood shear walls, and
ensure that proper nailing is called out on plan or in notes.
3. Show how overturning forces in plywood walls are carried to the foundation (provide hold-
downs or other means of sufficient overturning anchorage)
M&N Response:
CADocuments and Settings\mroyer\My Documents\Plan Review\Front Door\tov-b06-0021.2. DOC Page 4 of 10
See the attached revised calculations
2. See the attached calculations.
3. Refer to revised Plan S101 for holdown and shear wall nailing.
KL&A, 515106: 1) Calculations have not been provided
2) Calculations have not been provided. Wood shear walls have now
been called out at this location, verify code aspect ratios for wall "piers",
original ca/cs L13 show very short walls.
3) S102 shows this info, part 3 of comment closed.
S8. LS, C Ref Sheet S103 and Calculations 1-5-1-9. Calculations indicate that 35k seismic force
must be transferred from roof diaphragm to each of the stair/elevator cores. Please address the
following:
1. Please provide diaphragm shear diagram to verify that diaphragm meets demand.
2. In particular, please show that the plywood diaphragm capacity is sufficient in the areas near
the cores to carry shear demand greater than 800 plf.
3. Details showing the load path from the roof diaphragm to the cores have not been provided in
the drawings for the two south cores. Provide details that show this load path.
M&N Response:
1. Refer to the attached roof diaphragm loading diagram.
2. Refer to the revised roof plan for the (3) 1 W x 11 '/4" LVL drag struts along
Grid P.1.
3. The diaphragm loads will be transferred with sections similar to sections
indicated at north core wall. See sections 1,2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 18 on S302.
KL&A, 515106: 1) No change in ca/cs from original submittal. Shear diagram has not
been provided. Calculations show 10d@2" o.c. nailing, fully blocked
diaphragms and 3 x members required at panel edges per note "d" in the
IBC table. This information is not reflected in S001 14.G.4. or the plans
or details, verify.
2) Address the connection at the end of the drag; clarify/ address the
drag connections at the other two cores as well.
3) Detail 5/S302: plywood is not connected to what appears to be a
"timber beam" drag, verify this connection is intended to be used at the
new (3) LVL beam to core wall, however note that the LVL pack is not
shown as lapping with core wall, verify. At all details referenced, define
the connection of the plywood to ledger, verify load path from ledger to
concrete wall / slab in 1,2, & 18. Verify ledge should be 3x per comment

M&N Response:
1. Refer to the lateral calculations for Building "A" , pages C12-C39.
2. The exterior plywood sheathing will provide the transfer of the lateral loads
from the small roof portions to the concrete core walls below. The roof framing
will have Simpson holdowns as noted in the various revised sections on S301
and S302.
3. Lateral load transferred from small portion of north roof is less than 200 plf.
Connection is sufficient.
4. Transfer of lateral load not required since drag strut plates added extending
south from core walls.
5. Connection is sufficient since LVL drag strut was added along Grid P.1. See

when exposed to weather.
CADocuments and Settings\mroyer\My Documents\Plan ReviewWront Door\tov-b06-0021.2. DOC Page 6 of 10
M&N Response:
The stud track should be attached with (2) #8 screws at each joist. LVL header is
protected by fascia boards shown in architectural sections for roof.
KL&A, 515106: FOR confirm screws extend upwards into the 2x, revise detail as
required.

The first fourteen comments have been removed from the beginning of all documents except
associated building permit application number 806-0018. Of the 14 some have been
addressed and remove from the list.
Architectural Comments:
16. Define use of stair DS01. Access from main level is through TOV service vestibule. Sheet G017 and
G018 show 142 occupants using stair. Exterior door from DS01 at grade swings in the opposite
direction of egress for 142 occupants. Door DS01 b from the lower level into stair DS01 is not shown
on electrical lighting as being used as an exit. Where are the 147 occupants coming from and if the
stair serves as an exit for 50 or more people door DS_ _ (door not labeled) must swing in the direction
of egress travel.
As described in the response; all occupants will leave the exit enclosure at the upper level and
exit the building through the elevator foyer. Please explain by exit loading, fire-resistive
construction and code reference that allow this configuration to occur. It appears that the
exceptions in IBC 1023 are being utilized in lieu of providing direct access to the exterior of
the building from the exit enclosure. If using this exception, please identify which and clearly
show compliance by identifying the fire-resistive ratings.
In reviewing the previously described Exit Path, we determined that exiting Occupants,
especially those from the Lodge at Vail and International Wing - who would have already
exited into a safe, 'at-grade', exterior environment - should not re-enter Bldg D, Stair DS01,
simply to exit at a `higher' elevation (Plaza Level). Those Occupants from the Lodge at Vail
and International Wing will exit from this `lower area' via the O.V.P Access Road that leads to
the public way `roundabout' adjacent to Bldg C/Ski Club - the same way the Lodge at Vail,
International Wing and One Vail Place currently exit. Instead of using Stair DS01 as the
second exit from this `low area', a NEW stair has been added at the northeast corner, adjacent
to One Vail Place (refer to new stair, sheet G016 & Bldg D/A102 & A104). The new stair will
take Occupants from this 'low area' at ±8170' to the public Plaza at ±8181'- northeast of Bldg
D - and continue exiting east towards Vail Village.
The Occupant load for this 'low area' is indicated on G016. The revised Occupant loads
indicated for the various spaces loading the 'low area' are due to a re-examination of the Exit
Path calculations. The Total Occupant Load of the 'low area' is 469 Occupants - with 235
Occupants going up the sidewalk / O.V.P. Access Road (described above), and 234 Occupants
going up the new stair. Per IBC Table 1005.1, the new stair needs to be 46.8" wide (i.e. 234 x.2
= 46.8"). The new stair provided is 4'-0" wide (48" > 46.811).
Exiting of the Skier Services Building, as well as the Occupants from the Loading Dock level
below, will still exit up and then through Service Vestibule D117. The 'controlling' Occupant
Load of 135 is from the Loading Dock level below (refer G018). Exit doors D001a and D011b
have been deleted so as not to exit into the 'low area' described above - keeping them within
the Building D Exit System. In complying with IBC Section 1023.1-Exception 1 ("Exit
Discharge Lobby"), the Ground Level floor and ceiling have been 2-hour rated (refer Bldg
D/A216 and A217), and the elevator hoistway doors (already 90-minute rated) have been
protected against smoke intrusion by'roll-down' smoke guard curtains (refer Bldg D/A701).
Occupants will exit directly into the public Plaza at ±8181', northeast of Building D and
continue exiting east towards Vail Village.

► 18. How does the three hour firewall described in the LSR separating the lower level of One Vail Place
from the new Skier Services Building comply with section 705 IBC 2003. The wall must continue to
and terminate above the roof.
Any designs which are shown on the plans and do not comply with the code must be applied
for in the form of an Administrative Modification and not a Memorandum of Understanding as
described in the response. If it is not possible to construct this wall as described and required
by the Building Code then submit an Administrative Modification clearly identifying the issues,
code sections, and alternative construction, safeguards to fire and life safety and justification
for the modification. It was agreed in the 0510212006 meeting that if compliance with the IBC
then this will be submitted for review as an Administrative Modification.
Refer BCER Administrative Modification #2 dated May 23, 2006.
19. Door D011 a is shown as a 180 min door. This assembly has been recessed in and is no longer in the
same plane as the three hour wall. Walls framed back from the three hour wall to receive the door
frame are shown as one hour assemblies. These walls supporting the rated door frame must have the
same rating as the three hour firewall.
Sheet G-017 is small scale and less detail then sheet A101. Clearly show the rating of all walls
on sheet A101 that are utilized to provide the 3 hour separation. Provide wall tags or another
method of clear representation.
The wall containing Door D011a has been revised to comply with the 3-hour rating
requirement; see `Wall Type 30' on revised sheet A601. Also see revised floor plan on sheet
Bldg D/A102 for clarification.
Mechanical Comments:
27. How will large shaft serving equipment in lower level be subdivided. Plans show one hour walls within
the shaft. Detail shows 5/8" sheet on one side of steel studs with 1" shaft liner on the other side.
Provide listed assembly and clarify why the 2 hour shaft is split into smaller shafts with 1 hour. These
walls should be 2 hour if splitting the large shaft into smaller shafts.
Please amend architectural plan to coincide with the mechanical plan for location shaft wall
locations. Each discipline shows different shaft wall locations.
Architectural and Structural plans have been revised. Refer sheet Bldg D/A101, A103 and
details 6 & 7/A300 and S101.
29. Sheet P103 references detail 4 Sheet P201 for continuation of gas line to fountain. Detail 4 does not
exist on sheet P201.
See sheet P103 at the coffee stand. This area on sheet P103 is referencing an enlarged plan
on sheet P201. Sheet P201 does not include this enlarged plan. Please clarify.
The enlarged plan is correctly shown on sheet P202, not P201.
Eneray Code Review Comments:
Envelope Com Check
37. The IECC requires exterior doors to spaces greater than 3000 SF open into vestibules. Doors D104
a & b open into an air lock but doors D131 a, b, c, d, a and doors 100a and b communicate to the
same space as D1 04a and b but do not have vestibules. Provide justification to not provide vestibules
at these locations. Sheet Al 03
This item was not addressed. Please respond accordingly to this comment. Your response
was "4240 to answer."
At VRDC direction, the Great Room is under redesign. In this effort, Doors D131 a, c, d and e
will be deleted; Door D131 b will have a new vestibule. The area around Doors D100a and
D100b will be reworked to include the required vestibule.

The Town of Vail recently established the heating degree days and cooling degree days for a
base of 65 degrees. The numbers provided are:
Heating degree days (base 65 degree F): 9826
Cooling degree days (base 65 degree F): 3
/ apologize for the notice of these numbers; however I have been instructed to pass this
information on and require modification of the Envelop Compliance Certificate and design.
Amend reports to reflect the design criteria established by the Town of Vail.
The Town of Vail currently approves the computer program COM Check as an Energy Code
Calculation method. COM Check will not allow the user to change the heating or cooling
degree-days. They are automatically inserted when the town of Vail is chosen. Therefore, the
calculations will remain as submitted originally. Per conversation between Jay Watson/ABS
Engineers and Matt Royer/CIA, it is understood that this is acceptable to the ToV for this
project.

Re: Vail's Front Door (M&N # 5500.02) Skier Services - Building D
BUILDING PERMIT B06-0021
Dear Mr. Hart:
The following are our responses to the structural portions of The Town of Vail Building
Department comments for the above building, dated March 10, 2006. We have included the
original comment with each response. Our responses are noted with "M&N Response".
SI. D, C General sheet G018, Volume 1: Note ground level floor in retail area has an occupant
load of 336 people, greater than the Building Classification limit of 300 people for
typical occupancy (IBC Table 1604.5); it appears Category III is required. Verify lateral
and gravity designs are adequate for the increased loads due to importance factors for
Seismic, Wind, and Snow loads (1.25, 1.15, and 1. 1, respectively vs. 1.0 used). Verify
other design provisions are also acceptable as applied (static analysis is appropriate for
seismic design, Seismic Design Category, etc.)
M&N Response:
We respectfully disagree with your interpretation of the IBC 2003 Code. We interpret
the classification to include 300 people in "one area" such as an assembly hall. We do
not feel that there would be "a substantial hazard to human life in the event of failure".
We do not agree that this building falls in this category just because of the size of the
retail area. If this were true, every single level, retail building of more than 10,000
square feet with 30 feet square feet per person allowed would be in Category III. We do
not believe that this is the intent of the code.

S2. F Soils report page 35 states "foundations adjacent to the garage should be lower to be
supported by natural soils. Some existing fill occurs in the area for this building. In our
opinion, the existing fill will not safely support a spread footing foundation system. The
existing fill should be removed and replaced with... engineered fill." Please verify that
these recommendations are reflected in the structural designs and the construction
documents. Is note 8/S 101 intended to cover this recommendation?
M&N Response:
Refer to note 4/S 101 which requires compliance with the soils report. Also, see note
8/S 101 which requires adjustment and verification by Monroe & Newell according to
conditions encountered during construction.
S3. General comment: Please show that wind uplift loads have been addressed, and that a
load path is shown on the drawings to carry uplift loads on the roof.
M&N Response:
All Simpson Connectors used in roof framing resist uplift loads. Additional Simpson
H2.5 anchors have been added at 2X roof framing. See sheets S301 and 5302.
S4. LS, C Ref Sheet S 103 and Calculations L 1-L 13. It is unclear what combination of concrete
shear walls and wood structural panels are to be used to carry lateral loads, and how
these loads are to be distributed through the diaphragm to the lateral elements below.
Please address the following:
1. Please provide diaphragm shear diagram to verify that diaphragm meets demand.
2. Show that diaphragm chord forces that develop to carry lateral forces across long
diaphragm spans are carried by members shown. Indicate how chord forces are
carried over gable ridges and across valleys.
M&N Response:
See attached revised calculations. The loads are distributed to the core walls and shear
walls based on tributary widths of the flexible diaphragm. The chord forces are carried
by the roof beam members at the diaphragm edges.
S5. LS, C Ref Calculations L5 and L8. Calculations ignore seismic forces generated in elevated
steel slab because it is "translated into foundation walls directly by floor diaphragm".
Please clarify this statement, and clarify explicitly that both diaphragm and walls indeed
behave in this way, especially where slab adjoins, and remains disconnected from,
existing slabs, and where building adjoins structure of building. Consider combination
of lateral soil loads and seismic lateral loads.
M&N Response:
The floor diaphragms are small areas with short spans for the diaphragms between
stair/elevator cores and foundation walls. See the attached plan sheet with loadings and
resisting elements. Loads on plans include lateral soil loads and seismic lateral loads.
No lateral loads are transferred into existing building structure.
S6. LS, C Ref Sheet S 102 and Calculations L5 and L8. Diagrams of cores indicate floor elevation
at 8182', where plan shows elevation at 8187'. Clarify effect of 5' difference in slab
elevation on lateral load calculations.
M&N Response:
Loads are translated through columns from level 8187'-0" to level 8184'-6" to level
8182'-0".
S7. LS, C Ref Sheet S103 and Calculations LI I-L13. Diagrams appear to indicate the use of
plywood shear walls to carry lateral loads near grid 2.3. Please address the following:
1. Please provide diaphragm shear diagram to verify that diaphragm meets demand.
2. Provide calculations to show the demand/capacity ratio for the plywood shear
walls, and ensure that proper nailing is called out on plan or in notes.
3. Show how overturning forces in plywood walls are carried to the foundation
(provide hold-downs or other means of sufficient overturning anchorage)
M&N Response:
1. See the attached revised calculations
See the attached calculations.
Refer to revised Plan S 101 for holdown and shear wall nailing.
S8. LS, C Ref Sheet 5103 and Calculations L5-L9. Calculations indicate that 35k seismic force
must be transferred from roof diaphragm to each of the stair/elevator cores. Please
address the following:
1. Please provide diaphragm shear diagram to verify that diaphragm meets demand.
2. In particular, please show that the plywood diaphragm capacity is sufficient in
the areas near the cores to carry shear demand greater than 800 pl£
3. Details showing the load path from the roof diaphragm to the cores have not
been provided in the drawings for the two south cores. Provide details that show
this load path.
M&N Response:
1. Refer to the attached roof diaphragm loading diagram.
2. Refer to the revised roof plan for the (3) 1 3/4" x 11 '/4" LVL drag struts along
Grid P.1.
3. The diaphragm loads will be transferred with sections similar to sections
indicated at north core wall. See sections 1,2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 18 on S302.
S9. LS, C Ref Sheet S 103 and details on S301 and S302 regarding north core. Calculations refer to
the north core at grid P.4 and 4.9, but there is no indication here of demand placed on the
core from the skier services building. Please address the following:
1. Please define the lateral load demand on this core, in both NS and EW
directions.
2. Ref details 6 and 7/S301. These details do not indicate any lateral load path to
wall below. Provide calculations and/or details to show that such a load path is
not necessary, or revise to provide. Provide detail and calculations showing
complete load path for uplift loads, including joists to timber beam below.
3. Ref detail 4/S302 Provide calculation to show that lateral load connection to
the core is sufficient to meet demand. Show that local diaphragm capacity is
sufficient, or provide elongated drags as required.
4. Ref detail 5/S302 Provide detail and calculations to show lateral load path from
diaphragm to core
5. Ref detail 6/S302 Provide calculations to show lateral load path from
diaphragm to core is sufficient to meet demand
6. Ref detail 7/S302 Provide detail and calculations to show lateral load path from
diaphragm to core. Provide connection of steel bucket to embed.
M&N Response:
1. Refer to the lateral calculations for Building "A" , pages C12-C39.
2. The exterior plywood sheathing will provide the transfer of the lateral loads from
the small roof portions to the concrete core walls below. The roof framing will
have Simpson holdowns as noted in the various revised sections on S301 and
S302.
3. Lateral load transferred from small portion of north roof is less than 200 plf.
Connection is sufficient.
4. Transfer of lateral load not required since drag strut plates added extending south
from core walls.
5. Connection is sufficient since LVL drag strut was added along Grid P.1. See
attached calculations
6. Refer to connection shown in Section 6/S302. Provide a'/4" fillet weld x 3" long
at each side of bracket.
S 10. D, C Ref Detail 10/S302. How is 2x6 connected to metal stud below, and how are uplift loads
carried? Verify "LVL header" at eave end will be protected from weather - LVL
deteriorate rapidly when exposed to weather.
M&N Response:
The stud track should be attached with (2) #8 screws at each joist. LVL header is
protected by fascia boards shown in architectural sections for roof.
S11. C Ref for example page R9 (in addition to remainder of roof calcs). Calculations do not
appear to take into account unbalanced gable roof snow loads. Many, if not most, roof
timber beams and purlins may be undersized. Please verify.
M&N Response:
Roof framing is designed to comply with the Town of Vail Amendments to the 2003
IBC. These amendments do not require an increase in loading due to wind or valleys.
S12 C Ref page R9. Provide calculations for 8x14 members. These members and others seem
to have been sized by inspection, or in a typical calculation that is not referenced. Please
clarify for this and all "un-keyed" members on roof key plan.
M&N Response:
See R32 and R33. These pages give maximum length for the load and spacing indicated.
S13 C Ref page R2. Typical joists are designed for flat roof snow load without consideration of
drift loads in accordance with IBC section 1608.8. Please provide explicit calculation
showing that joists meet this criteria.
M&N Response:
Roof framing is designed to comply with the Town of Vail Amendments to the 2003
IBC. These amendments do not require an increase in loading due to wind or valleys.

M&N Response:
Bearing plate oversized to allow field adjustment. Note added for General Contractor to
coordinate installation with M&N. Expansion bolt added to Section.
S20 D Ref detail 5/S003. Is this detail called out on S102 incorrectly as 5/S002? How are
beams supported directly on slab without transferring load to slab? Is load transfer to
existing slab intended?
M&N Response:
The Section callout on 5102 now reads 5/S003. Revised Section indicates 1" expansion
joint material between slab and beam as noted on Section 1/S003.

S45 D, LS, C Ref sheet S302. In general, details are incomplete regarding lateral load path and/or
there are no calculations to verify if lateral load connections are sufficient. Please verify
lateral load path in these details
M&N Response:
See response to Comment S9. Lateral loads are transferred from floor and roof
diaphragms to embeds in concrete walls.
S46 D 2/S303: bolt spacing is required; see also Ski club comments regarding similar truss
connections (Volume 3)
M&N Response:
See revised section, bolts at 4" on center.
S46a D 5/S303: bolted connection shows two rods framing into this joint, elevation 1 shows only
one horizontal tie rod. Further, 9 3/a" thru bolts appears to be a structural connection,
however the wood truss-work and rods appear to be purely architectural based on the
calculations R57-R62. Please verify / explain this connection's function.
M&N Response:
The diagonal rod should be deleted. The horizontal rod is for architectural reasons as
noted.
S47 - not used
S48 D,F S002 Section 4: Section says "See col schedule for base plate and anchor bolt sizes."
This is not correct, this info is not in the column schedule S 102, please provide.
M&N Response:
See revised column schedule on S 102.
S50 F 5002 Section 5:
a) Section says see plan for certain footing dims - plan does not show this
information, please provide.
b) Outside face Hz bars not identified.
M&N Response:
See response to comment 515. RE: Revised Section for outside face horizontal
reinforcing.
S51 D 5002 Section 8: Says "Re plan" - there is nothing on plan, pls verify
M&N Response:
Revised detail references S101, where the requested dimensions have been added.
S52 F 5002 Section 15:

b) Section says "embed plate re plan and schedules" - there is no schedule and
there is no such info on the plan??
M&N Response:
Refer to revised Section for information.
S54 F S002 Section 12" Slab reinf extending vertical into turn down is not identified.
M&N Response:
Refer to revised Section.
S55 D S003 Section 1: Section indicates steel beam sitting directly on an existing PT slab.
This steel beam can't act like a beam unless it deflects. The existing slab will prevent
this deflection. Suggest that 1" of compressible material be placed between the bottom
of the beam and the existing pt slab - pls comment. Also, connection of exterior wood
wall to steel beam is not defined, consider wind load transfer.
M&N Response:
Note callout for "1" thick expansion joint material below beam. Refer to revised section.
S56 D 5003: Section 1: Also, this section appears to be cut on S 102 @line N.3, where it
appears this steel beam seems to be on the wrong side of the existing cone wall.
M&N Response:
Section as cut is correct and should have "sim" label.
S57 D 5003: Section 2: This section is cut n plan sheet S102 near line 4.3. This plan indicates
3 steel members while section 2 indicates only 2 members - please clarify.
M&N Response:
(2) members are necessary, as indicated on Section 2/5003. Sheet S 102 has been revised
accordingly.
S58 D 5003: Section 2: Apparently these (2) or (3?) steel channels are intended to serve as new
lintel beam over a wall opening that will be cut in an existing conc. wall. See Vol. 3
comments, 520, similar.
M&N Response:
(2) channels are to serve as new lintel beam.
S59 D S003: Section 2: how far do these channels extend past the jamb lines of the new
openings? Verify end connection can transfer beam reactions to (E) structure - provide
calcs.
M&N Response:
Channels to extend 2'-0" past edge of opening at sides. Refer to attached calculations
and revised section.
S60 D 5003: Detail 1,2,3,5: The steel beam above the existing PT slab seems to be bearing
directly on the PT slab. This situation will prevent the steel beam from deflecting (see
also comments 519, S55)
M&N Response:
See response to S 19, 520, and S55. Revised sections indicate 1" of expansion joint
material between the beam and slab.
S61 D 5003: Section 1-7: Verify new loads on existing structure do not exceed the capacity of
the existing structural elements or soil bearing - provide calcs.
M&N Response:
See attached calculations.
S62 D 5003: Section 3: This section is also cut on sheet S102 near line N.3. This plan shows a
W 14x26 spanning from a concrete wall to a new CS column. On the other hand, section
3 says the W14 bears directly on the pt slab and stops before it reaches the C5 column.
Please clarify section. Also, clarify the bearing condition at (E) wall where W14 and
aligned W16x100 meet.
M&N Response:
The W14x26 spans to the new foundation wall adjacent to the existing foundation wall.
The W16x100 bears on a steel bearing plate at each end, similar to Section 3/5003.
S63 D S003 Section 3: The section says use caution when drilling expansion bolts - the intent
of the bearing plate is not clear. No attachment is shown from beam to bearing plate,
verify if this is done to eliminate lateral connectivity of the existing and new structures.
M&N Response:
See response to Comment S 19.
S64 D S003: Section 7: Dowels to (E) bldg force (E) and new ftgs to act together;
verify soil pressure is not exceeded at final condition.
M&N Response:

added to sheet S 101.
S70 D S 101 Steel Framing:
a) Verify no camber at steel beams
b) Calcs B71, B72: drawings do not match calcs. Further, loads between these 2
calc pages don't appear to match.
C) Consider point moment in concrete wall due to eccentricity of steel beam shear
reactions- particularly an issue at heavily loaded transfer beams.
M&N Response:
There is no camber in steel beam design. B71 and B72 refer to beams along grid 4.6 and
5 between L.1 and P.1 on S 101. S 101 correctly identifies the required beam size. Loads
are consistent between B71 and B72. Concrete / steel connections are designed for
eccentricity inherent in the type of connection indicated.

Dear Mr. Hart:
REVIEWEDWED gy
Vail, I
Denver,
" Frisco,
INSPECTION
The following are our responses to the structural portions of The Town of Vail Building Department
comments for the above building, dated May 8, 2006. We have included the original comment with each
response. Our responses are noted with "M&N Response".
SL D, C General sheet G018, Volume 1: Note ground level floor in retail area has an occupant
load of 336 people, greater than the Building Classification limit of 300 people for typical occupancy
(IBC Table 1604.5); it appears Category III is required. Verify lateral and gravity designs are
adequate for the increased loads due to importance factors for Seismic, Wind, and Snow loads (1.25,
1. 15, and 1. 1, respectively vs. 1.0 used). Verify other design provisions are also acceptable as applied
(static analysis is appropriate for seismic design, Seismic Design Category, etc.)
M&N Response:
We respectfully disagree with your interpretation of the IBC 2003 Code. We interpret
the classification to include 300 people in "one area" such as an assembly hall. We do
not feel that there would be "a substantial hazard to human life in the event of failure".
We do not agree that this building falls in this category just because of the size of the
retail area. If this were true, every single level, retail building of more than 10,000
square feet with 30 feet square feet per person allowed would be in Category III. We do
not believe that this is the intent of the code.

KL&A, 515106: While the EOR's response is perhaps a reasonable argument, this requires a
code variance from the Town of Vail; the IBC provision referenced does not distinguish between
different intended usage for the "one area. " We suggest holding a meeting to discuss and resolve
this issue, as required
M&N Response:
The Architect has recalculated the square footage of retail area that is included in the
skier services. The area is less than 10,000 square feet, thus at 30 sq. ft. per occupant,
the occupancy is less than 300. Thus no modification will be required to the structural
design values. No meeting is required.
S4. LS, C Ref Sheet S 103 and Calculations L 1-L 13. It is unclear what combination of concrete
shear walls and wood structural panels are to be used to carry lateral loads, and how these loads are to
be distributed through the diaphragm to the lateral elements below. Please address the following:
Please provide diaphragm shear diagram to verify that diaphragm meets demand.
2. Show that diaphragm chord forces that develop to carry lateral forces across long
diaphragm spans are carried by members shown. Indicate how chord forces are carried over gable
ridges and across valleys.
M&N Response:
See attached revised calculations. The loads are distributed to the core walls and shear
walls based on tributary widths of the flexible diaphragm. The chord forces are carried
by the roof beam members at the diaphragm edges.
KL&A, 515106. 1) Calculations resubmitted are unchanged from the original
submittal Verify the designs accommodate R=4.0 instead of 5.0 on the original drawings (per
change to S001). New calculations appear to show a shear diagram only for Level 2 at grade. The
general procedures for the Level 2 shear and moment diagram appear to follow engineering
principles, FOR please confirm other levels were similarly calculated
2) Chord forces in roof and main level members must travel through framing
member connections, verify connections are oversized sufficiently for this additional chord axial
load At building bends (i.e. K.2 line), verify diagonal components of chord forces have been
considered on each side of the bend
M&N Response:
1) Per Table 9.5.2.2 in ASCE 7-00, the R value for ordinary reinforced concrete
shear walls is 5 and the R value for light-framed walls with wood structural
panels is 6. Per ASCE 7-00 section 9.5.2.2.1, the smaller of the two values shall
be used where a combination of systems is used in the same orthogonal
direction. The value used in the original calculations is correct as R-5. 5001 has
been corrected accordingly. See attached calculations for the shear diagram for
the roof diaphragm. See revised S 103 for roof area between Grids G.5 and G.9,
and 4.7 and 6.5 for the block diaphragm.
2) We have verified that the additional axial chord forces are sufficiently carried by
the beam-to-beam and beam-to-column connections. The diagonal components
of the chord forces are transferred through the connection plates of the roof beam
members into the perpendicular and/or skewed members that frame into the
connections at Grid K.2 and H.1. These skewed members then transfer the loads
into the diaphragms which carry the loads back to the resisting elements.
S6. LS, C Ref Sheet S 102 and Calculations L5 and L8. Diagrams of cores indicate floor elevation
at 8182', where plan shows elevation at 8187'. Clarify effect of 5' difference in slab elevation on
lateral load calculations.
M&N Response:
Loads are translated through columns from level 8187'-0" to level 8184'-6" to level
8182'-0".
KL&A, 515106. Verify that P/M interaction of the column is OK. Consider deflection
compatibility and fire rating /finish of the separation wall.
M&N Response:
See attached calculation of the TS 8x8 Column at Grid N.3 and 4.4 Note minor deflection of
column. Floor diaphragms are much stiffer than columns. Fire rating and finish of separation
wall do not need to be considered.
S7. LS, C Ref Sheet S 103 and Calculations L 1 l -L 13. Diagrams appear to indicate the use of
plywood shear walls to carry lateral loads near grid 2.3. Please address the following:
1. Please provide diaphragm shear diagram to verify that diaphragm meets demand.
2. Provide calculations to show the demand/capacity ratio for the plywood shear walls, and
ensure that proper nailing is called out on plan or in notes.
3. Show how overturning forces in plywood walls are carried to the foundation (provide
hold-downs or other means of sufficient overturning anchorage)
M&N Response:
See the attached revised calculations
2. See the attached calculations.
Refer to revised Plan 5101 for holdown and shear wall nailing.
KL&A, 515106: 1) Calculations have not been provided
2) Calculations have not been provided Wood shear walls have now been
called out at this location, verify code aspect ratios for wall "piers", original
calcs L13 show very short walls.
3) S102 shows this info, part 3 of comment closed
M&N Response:
1) See attached calculations for roof diaphragm.
2) See attached previously submitted calculations with verified code adaptable aspect
ratios.
3) Correct, Sheet S 102 not S 101 has revisions..
S8. LS, C Ref Sheet S103 and Calculations L5-L9. Calculations indicate that 35k seismic force
must be transferred from roof diaphragm to each of the stair/elevator cores. Please address the
following:
Please provide diaphragm shear diagram to verify that diaphragm meets demand.
2. In particular, please show that the plywood diaphragm capacity is sufficient in the areas
near the cores to carry shear demand greater than 800 plf.
3. Details showing the load path from the roof diaphragm to the cores have not been
provided in the drawings for the two south cores. Provide details that show this load path.
M&N Response:
1. Refer to the attached roof diaphragm loading diagram.
2. Refer to the revised roof plan for the (3) 1 3/4" x 11 '/4" LVL drag struts along
Grid P.1.
3. The diaphragm loads will be transferred with sections similar to sections
indicated at north core wall. See sections 1,2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 18 on S302.
KL&A, 515106. 1) No change in calcs from original submittal. Shear diagram
has not been provided Calculations show l0d@2" o.c. nailing, fully blocked
diaphragms and 3 x members required at panel edges per note "d" in the IBC
table. This information is not reflected in S001 14.G.4. or the plans or details,
verify.
2) Address the connection at the end of the drag; clarify / address the
drag connections at the other two cores as well.
3) Detail 5/S302: plywood is not connected to what appears to be a "timber
beam" drag, verify this connection is intended to be used at the new (3) LVL
beam to core wall, however note that the LVL pack is not shown as lapping
with core wall, verify. At all details referenced, define the connection of the
plywood to ledger, verify load path from ledger to concrete wall /slab in 1,2, &
18. Verify ledge should be 3x per comment S8 #1.
M&N Response:
1) See attached roof diaphragm loading diagram. Calculations referred to are for
plywood shear walls. Nailing on S001 is acceptable at all of roof except area
between Grids G.5 and G.9 and 4.7 and 6.5 where a blocked diaphragm is
needed. See revised S 103. See revised note on S 102 near Grid M.9 - 2.3 for
nailing and 3x edge members for plywood shear walls.
2) The steel plates will be attached to an embed steel plate in the core wall. See
revised S 103 and Detail 20/S302.
3) Section 5/S302 is not intended to be the drag beam. (3) LYLS will be between
roof joists.
The connection of the plywood to the ledger is per the General Notes. The ledger
is attached to the core wall with the expansion bolts. The 3x ledger is not
required as the loads are small at these small roof areas.
The loads from the roof diaphragms in Sections 1, 2, and 18 are transferred into
the 2x blocking with nailing, then into the 2x sill plate with nailing, then into
the concrete slab with the ''/2" diameter anchor studs. At all these locations, the
lateral loads are not as high as in the main roof diaphragm as they are at small
roof areas.

Re: Vail's Front Door (M&N it 5500.02) Skier Services, Building D
BUILDING PERMIT B06-0021
Dear Mr. Hart:
The following are our responses to the structural portions of The Town of Vail Building Department
comments for the above building, dated July 3, 2006. We have included the original comment with each
response. Our responses are noted with "M&N Response".
S1. D, C General sheet GO] 8, Volume 1: Note ground level floor in retail area has an occupant
load of 336 people, greater than the Building Classification limit of 300 people for typical occupancy
(IBC Table 1604.5); it appears Category III is required. Verify lateral and gravity designs are
adequate for the increased loads due to importance factors for Seismic, Wind, and Snow loads (1.25,
1. 15, and 1. 1, respectively vs. 1.0 used). Verify other design provisions are also acceptable as applied
(static analysis is appropriate for seismic design, Seismic Design Category, etc.)
M&N Response:
We respectfully disagree with your interpretation of the IBC 2003 Code. We interpret
the classification to include 300 people in "one area" such as an assembly hall. We do
not feel that there would be "a substantial hazard to human life in the event of failure".
We do not agree that this building falls in this category just because of the size of the
retail area. If this were true, every single level, retail building of more than 10,000
square feet with 30 feet square feet per person allowed would be in Category 111. We do
not believe that this is the intent of the code.

KL&A, 5/5/06: While the EOR's response is perhaps a reasonable argument, this requires a code
variance from the Town of Vail, the IBC provision referenced does not distinguish between
different intended usage for the "one area. " We suggest holding a meeting to discuss and resolve
this issue, as required.
M&N Response:
The Architect has recalculated the square footage of retail area that is included in the
skier services. The area is less than 10,000 square feet, thus at 30 sq. ft. per occupant,
the occupancy is less than 300. Thus no modification will be required to the structural
design values. No meeting is required.
KL&A, 7/3/06: Sheet G018 has not been revised in the latest submitted drawings, the listed
occupancy is still 336. We understand from the Architect that the occupant load will be reduced
in a future addendum to be less than 300 people. Comment closed, contingent upon a final
review of sheet G018.
M&N Response:
Architectural drawing G108 to be revised.
S4. LS, C Ref Sheet 5103 and Calculations L1-1,13. It is unclear what combination of concrete
shear walls and wood structural panels are to be used to carry lateral loads, and how these loads are to
be distributed through the diaphragm to the lateral elements below. Please address the following:
Please provide diaphragm shear diagram to verify that diaphragm meets demand.
2. Show that diaphragm chord forces that develop to carry lateral forces across long
diaphragm spans are carried by members shown. Indicate how chord forces are carried over gable
ridges and across valleys.
M&N Response:
See attached revised calculations. The loads are distributed to the core walls and shear
walls based on tributary widths of the flexible diaphragm. The chord forces are carried
by the roof beam members at the diaphragm edges.
KL&A, 515106: 1) Calculations resubmitted are unchanged from the original
submittal. Verify the designs accommodate R=4.0 instead of 5.0 on the original drawings (per
change to S001). New calculations appear to show a shear diagram only for Level 2 at grade. The
general procedures for the Level 2 shear and moment diagram appear to follow engineering
principles, FOR please confirm other levels were similarly calculated.
2) Chord forces in roof and main level members must travel through framing
member connections, verify connections are oversized sufficiently for this additional chord axial
load. At building bends (i.e. K.2 line), verify diagonal components of chord forces have been
considered on each side of the bend.
M&N Response:
1) Per Table 9.5.2.2 in ASCE 7-00, the R value for ordinary reinforced concrete
shear walls is 5 and the R value for light-framed walls with wood structural
panels is 6. Per ASCE 7-00 section 9.5.2.2.1, the smaller of the two values shall
be used where a combination of systems is used in the same orthogonal
direction. The value used in the original calculations is correct as R-5. S001 has
been corrected accordingly. See attached calculations for the shear diagram for
the roof diaphragm. See revised S 103 for roof area between Grids G.5 and G.9,
and 4.7 and 6.5 for the block diaphragm.
2) We have verified that the additional axial chord forces are sufficiently carried by
the beam-to-beam and beam-to-column connections. The diagonal components
of the chord forces are transferred through the connection plates of the roof beam
members into the perpendicular and/or skewed members that frame into the
connections at Grid K.2 and H.1. These skewed members then transfer the loads
into the diaphragms which carry the loads back to the resisting elements.
KL&A, 7/3/06:
1) We understand the FOR to mean the 2002 ASCE 7 document. Table 9.5.2.2 shows for
"Bearing Wall Systems, Ordinary reinforced concrete shear walls" R=4. We believe the
FOR was looking under "Building Frame Systems" and not under "Bearing Wall Systems"
when R=5 was erroneously used. The concrete cores support floor and roof loads, in
addition to stair loads and shall be considered bearing walls. Please review lateral designs
with R=4. Note earthquake loads are at a factored load level (ASCE 7-02, Table 9.5.2.2,
footnote "a"), and may be reduced for allowable stress load combinations IBC 1605.3 and
ASCE 7-02 section 2.4 when checking diaphragm and shear wall stresses, foundation
overturning pressures, and similar working stress design checks. Change sheet 5001 for
R=4. Verify lateral designs for R=4, for the entire structure from the roof to supporting soil.
Verify overturning on Building A lid at the north core with R=4. Resubmit calculations and
details for any designs that are changed due to this change in required R factor.
2) Comment closed.
M&N Response:
1) You are correct in M&N's reference to the ASCE 7-02 document.
According to the definition of a "Bearing Wall System" on page 102 of the
ASCE 7-02 document, in a "Bearing Wall System" the bearing walls provide
support for "all or major portions of the vertical loads." Approximately 75% of
the gravity load is carried by post and beam framing system throughout the
building. This frame system utilizes concrete shear walls to resist lateral seismic
forces. Therefore, the building system can be classified as a "Building Frame
System" not a "Bearing Wall System" and the corresponding R value of 5
applies.
2) No response required.
ST LS, C Ref Sheet 5103 and Calculations L11-L13. Diagrams appear to indicate the use of
plywood shear walls to carry lateral loads near grid 2.3. Please address the following:
1. Please provide diaphragm shear diagram to verify that diaphragm meets demand.
2. Provide calculations to show the demand/capacity ratio for the plywood shear walls, and
ensure that proper nailing is called out on plan or in notes.
3. Show how overturning forces in plywood walls are carried to the foundation (provide
hold-downs or other means of sufficient overturning anchorage)
M&N Response:
1. See the attached revised calculations
2. See the attached calculations.
3. Refer to revised Plan S 101 for holdown and shear wall nailing.
KMA, 515106: 1) Calculations have not been provided
2) Calculations have not been provided. Wood shear walls have now been
called out at this location, verify code aspect ratios for wall "piers"; original
calcs LB show very short walls.
3) S102 shows this info, part 3 of comment closed
M&N Response:
1) See attached calculations for roof diaphragm.
2) See attached previously submitted calculations with verified code adaptable aspect
ratios.
3) Correct, Sheet S 102 not S 101 has revisions..
KL&A, 7/3/06:
1) Provide revised calculations for review if total net working stress shears are
increased with R=4, per comment S4.
2) Comment closed
3) Comment closed
M&N Response:
1) No change. See response to S4.
2) No response required.
3) No response required.
S8. LS, C Ref Sheet S103 and Calculations L5-L9. Calculations indicate that 35k seismic force
must be transferred from roof diaphragm to each of the stair/elevator cores. Please address the
following:
1. Please provide diaphragm shear diagram to verify that diaphragm meets demand.
2. In particular, please show that the plywood diaphragm capacity is sufficient in the areas
near the cores to carry shear demand greater than 800 plf.
3. Details showing the load path from the roof diaphragm to the cores have not been
provided in the drawings for the two south cores. Provide details that show this load path.
M&N Response:
1. Refer to the attached roof diaphragm loading diagram.
2. Refer to the revised roof plan for the (3) 1 3/" x 11 LVL drag struts along
Grid P.1.
3. The diaphragm loads will be transferred with sections similar to sections
indicated at north core wall. See sections 1,2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 18 on 5302.
KL&A, 515106: 1) No change in talcs from original submittal. Shear diagram
has not been provided. Calculations show 10dw" o.c. nailing, fully blocked
diaphragms and 3 x members required at panel edges per note "d" in the IBC
table. This information is not reflected in 5001 14.G.4. or the plans or details,
verify.
2) Address the connection at the end of the drag; clarify /address the drag
connections at the other two cores as well.
3) Detail 5IS302: plywood is not connected to what appears to be a "timber
beam "drag, verify this connection is intended to be used at the new (3) LVL
beam to core wall, however note that the LVL pack is not shown as lapping
with core wall, verify. At all details referenced, define the connection of the
plywood to ledger, verify load path from ledger to concrete wall /slab in 1,2, &
18. Verify ledge should be 3x per comment S8 #1.
M&N Response:
1) See attached roof diaphragm loading diagram. Calculations referred to are for
plywood shear walls. Nailing on 5001 is acceptable at all of roof except area
between Grids G.5 and G.9 and 4.7 and 6.5 where a blocked diaphragm is
needed. See revised S 103. See revised note on S 102 near Grid M.9 - 2.3 for
nailing and 3x edge members for plywood shear walls.
2) The steel plates will be attached to an embed steel plate in the core wall. See
revised 5103 and Detail 20/5302.
3) Section 5/5302 is not intended to be the drag beam. (3) LYLS will be between
roof joists.
The connection of the plywood to the ledger is per the General Notes. The ledger
is attached to the core wall with the expansion bolts. The 3x ledger is not
required as the loads are small at these small roof areas.
The loads from the roof diaphragms in Sections 1, 2, and 18 are transferred into
the 2x blocking with nailing, then into the 2x sill plate with nailing, then into
the concrete slab with the ''/z" diameter anchor studs. At all these locations, the
lateral loads are not as high as in the main roof diaphragm as they are at small
roof areas.
KL&A, 7/3/06:
1) Revisit calculations / lateral designs with R=4 per previous comments. Shear
loads shown on the revised calculations appear to assume that the shear acting on
the diaphragm can be divided by a length of diaphragm longer than the core plus
drag lengths. Typically, maximum shear load is taken over the lateral force
resisting element plus the drag length only. Please comment and provide revised
calculations if designs are changed due to taking shorter diaphragm lengths.
Provide revised calculations for review if total net working stress shears are
increased with R=4, per comments S4 & S7.
2) Suggest cut the new detail 20/5302 wherever the steel straps are utilized on plan
for clarity, FOR coordinate as required. Comment closed.
3) Comment closed.
M&N Response:
1) The R value of 5 is correct, see response to S4. In the north-south direction, the
total length of the (3) drag struts is adequate to provide load transfer through the
plywood diaphragm into the core. In the east-west direction, the total length of
the drag struts plus the core is adequate to provide load transfer through the
plywood diaphragm into the core.
2) Locations of straps to be coordinated on shop drawings and during construction.
3) No response required.
S9. LS, C Ref Sheet 5103 and details on 5301 and S302 regarding north core. Calculations refer to
the north core at grid PA and 4.9, but there is no indication here of demand placed on the core from
the skier services building. Please address the following:
Please define the lateral load demand on this core, in both NS and EW directions.
2. Ref details 6 and 7/S301. These details do not indicate any lateral load path to wall
below. Provide calculations and/or details to show that such a load path is not necessary, or revise
to provide. Provide detail and calculations showing complete load path for uplift loads, including
joists to timber beam below.
3. Ref detail 4/S302 Provide calculation to show that lateral load connection to the core is
sufficient to meet demand. Show that local diaphragm capacity is sufficient, or provide elongated
drags as required.
4. Ref detail 5/S302 Provide detail and calculations to show lateral load path from
diaphragm to core
5. Ref detail 6/S302 Provide calculations to show lateral load path from diaphragm to core
is sufficient to meet demand
6. Ref detail 7/S302 Provide detail and calculations to show lateral load path from
diaphragm to core. Provide connection of steel bucket to embed.
M&N Response:
Refer to the lateral calculations for Building "A", pages C12-C39.
2. The exterior plywood sheathing will provide the transfer of the lateral
loads from the small roof portions to the concrete core walls below. The roof
framing will have Simpson holdowns as noted in the various revised sections on
S301 and 5302.
Lateral load transferred from small portion of north roof is less than 200
plf. Connection is sufficient.
4. Transfer of lateral load not required since drag strut plates added
extending south from core walls.
5. Connection is sufficient since LVL drag strut was added along Grid P.1.
See attached calculations
6. Refer to connection shown in Section 6/S302. Provide a fillet weld x
3" long at each side of bracket.
KL&A, 515106: 1) Comment Closed.
2) No change to these details have been made, ref. 6IS301: how is the roof
plywood connected to the shear wall at the top?
1
3) Define the plywood nailing.
4) Steel plate connection to core & diaphragm is not shown, this information is
required for a complete lateral load path.
S) See S8.
6) Ref. 7IS302 - no welds are shown.
M&N Response:
1) No response required.
2) See revised section 6/S301 and 7/S301. The roof plywood is connected to the 2a
blocking above the gable and wall pier nailing in General Notes 14.G.4.
3) See General Note 14.G.4.
4) Embed steel plate in core wall riot shown in Section 5/S302. See Section
20/S302.
5) See response to S8.3.
6) See revised Section 7/S302.
KL&A, 7/3/06: 1,2,4, and 6 are closed.
3) Suggest that the FOR coordinate plywood thickness per S001 14.G.4 and plan
notes S103; plan says plywood and S001 says 5/8" plywood.
5) FOR please confirm that a steel plate exists above the (3) LVL at grid PA, east of
the concrete core. Show the steel plate on S103 if this is intended for drag
connection. Alternatively, provide a detail to show how the (3) LVL connect to the
concrete core for gravity plus drag load.
M&N Response:
3) Plan note calling for 3/4" thick plywood controls as Note 14.G.4 indicates `5/8"
thick plywood (unless noted otherwise)."
5) A steel plate has been added in the east-west direction to supplement the (3)LVL
drag strut. See revised sheet S 103, revised Detail 20/S302 and new Section
21/S302.

- Exception: Pipe insulation is not required for piping that conveys fluids that have not been heated or cooled through the
use of fossil fuels or electric power.
- Exception: Pipe insulation is not required for runout piping not exceeding 4 ft in length and 1 in. in diameter between the
control valve and HVAC coil.
12. Operation and maintenance documentation must be provided to the owner that includes at least the following information:a)
equipment capacity (input and output) and required maintenance actionsb) equipment operation and maintenance manualsc)
HVAC system control maintenance and calibration information, including wiring diagrams, schematics, and control sequence
descriptions; desired or field-determined set points must be permanently recorded on control drawings, at control devices, or,
for digital control systems, in programming commentsd) complete narrative of how each system is intended to operate.
13. Each supply air outlet or diffuser and each zone terminal device (such as VAV or mixing box) must have its own balancing
device. Acceptable balancing devices include adjustable dampers located within the ductwork, terminal devices, and supply air
diffusers.
14. Hot water distribution systems with total system capacities of 600 kBtu/h and greater must have controls that:a) automatically
reset the hot water supply temperature, based on heating load, by at least 25% of the design supply-to-return water
temperature difference orb) reduce pump flow by at least 50% of design flow rate by using- adjustable-speed drive(s) on
pump(s)- multiple-stage pumps allowing at least 1/2 of the total pump horsepower to be automatically turned off- control valves
designed to modulate or step down and close as a function of load- other approved means (supporting documentation or
calculations must be submitted).
15. Hot water space-heating systems with a capacity exceeding 300 kBtu/h supplying heated water to comfort conditioning
systems must include controls that automatically reset supply water temperatures by representative building loads (including
return water temperature) or by outside air temperature. Exceptions: - Where the supply temperature reset controls cannot be
implemented without causing improper operation of heating, cooling, humidification, or dehumidification systems. - Hydronic
systems that use variable flow to reduce pumping energy.
16. Stair and elevator shaft vents must be equipped with motorized dampers capable of being automatically closed during normal
building operation and interlocked to open as required by fire and smoke detection systems. All gravity outdoor air supply and
exhaust hoods, vents, and ventilators must be equipped with motorized dampers that will automatically shut when the spaces
served are not in use. Exceptions: - Gravity (non-motorized) dampers are acceptable in buildings less than three stories in
height above grade. - Ventilation systems serving unconditioned spaces.
17. Hydronic systems that use a common return system for both hot water and chilled water must not be used.
