Provide written agreement with Building Official or approved code modification, allowing structural foam (combustible material in a non-combustible building) per 603.1. Agreement must indicate all penetrations in the area where structural foam is proposed, including details showing penetrations of the top slab and structural slab. Letter from Jensen Hughes dated July 14, 2020 and provided to ACG for preliminary review is insufficient. Include with revised letter, penetration details in the location of structural foam. Include in details how 7" min. concrete (Jensen Hughes letter dated July 14, 2020) will be maintained at penetrations and comply with 603.1. Also note that the letter from McMullan Engineers dated July 17, 2020 states "Cellofoam HD EPS Type XV" product, and sheet S-101 notes "Foamular 400 XPS Rigid Insulation". The letter also notes dead load of the product, but dead load is not included on sheet S-000. Coordinate product and design loads on letter and on drawings. Recommend submittal of manufacturer's product information to Building Official with letter and penetration details. 109.3 VUSBC 2015. |
