We appreciate your catching the error on page 18. The spec has been updated to reflect FBC 2020, 7th Edition and is attached hereto. Comment 2) The subject Work is defined as :REPAIRS under the FBC EXISTING, CH 4. Theses repairs are Less than Substantial (Sec 406.2.1). Compliance will be by accomplishing repairs such that the building is restored to it's original design condition or better. Comment 3) Design criteria for these REPAIRS? This is not a redesign. :Repairs shall be accomplished IAW the specification which is provided. The intent is restore the building components to their original condition, size, etc, so the design criteria is that which was in effect when the original permit for the building was pulled. Wind Load? These are primarily concrete repairs to the catwalks and columns. There are no windows or doors being pulled, no new installs, so Wind Loads were not included in the specification.
