Identify demising walls to
provide unit building relationship
with neighboring units (I'm
assuming that there are no units
above or below this one, please
note if there are). If more than
32 SF of drywall (one 8'x4'
sheet) is being removed in any
location along the demising wall
during demo then a listed 1 hour
assembly with STC rating of at
least 50 will be required for
replacement of the dwelling
separation. Provide this listed
assembly or note that less than
32 SF of drywall will be removed
along the applicable demising
wall.

Your structural letter speaks to
the new header for the egress
window but does not make any
mention of the other proposed
interior wall demo being non
structural. Provide verification
that all proposed demolition is
non-structural.

RE: 120 Spring St. New lower level Header
Tim,
You recently contacted us to design a new window headers at the lower level of the
residence located at 120 Spring Street in Aspen, Colorado. After reviewing the plans and
running the calcs the new header for the 24" opening it needs to be (3)-5 1/2" LVL
supported with (2)-2x6 one of which are trimmers if it is in a framed wall. The stone
veneer may be supported off a L4x4x1/4 lintel attached with 5/8” bolts @ 12”o.c. If the
wall is a concrete wall the new opening may be saw cut and the stone veneer may be
supported with a L4x4x1/4 steel lintel.
Please give me a call if you need anything else on this project.
Sincerely,
Mike Arbaney P.E.
