Mr. Chaput,
Your building permit application with plans dated 12-02-2016 is under review and requires additional information. Please follow up on the following items;
Provide a layout on the I-joist floor system.
Provide calc sheets on the two LVL beams shown.
The roof structure as drawn does not meet current prescriptive framing methods and therefore requires a stamped engineered solution.
Provide manufacturer specifications for the twenty minute window assembly.
Note if this structure is to be converted to a dwelling unit the following items will be required;
The bathroom must be directly connected to the living unit without passing through the garage.
A second means of egress separated as much as possible is required from the normal level of travel, which is the second floor. This can be an exterior stair or an interior stair separated
from the garage.
Relevant items must be submitted to the building department for approvals before inspections and or Certificates of Occupancy can be issued.
Feel free to call if you have any questions. My telephone number is 587-1240 and office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30 am to 4:30 pm, except we close for walk-ins at 12:00 noon
on Wednesdays. My email address is: cmiller@northamptonma.gov
Thank you for your cooperation on these matters.
