Architect’s Reponses:
Item #1 (GWB Removal/Asbestos):
As shown on Sheet A.1, “Demolition & New Work Floor Plans”, we have
calculated that less than 32 sf of GWB shall be removed from the premises
in preparation for the proposed work scope, thus no asbestos testing &
report is required. If we discover otherwise, work shall be halted until an
asbestos test & report is obtained, and additional steps are informed by the
report.
Item #2 (Hearth Extension):
As shown on Sheet A.1, “Demolition & New Work Floor Plans”, we indicate
required dimensions for the hearth extension and list the procedure to
determine the appropriate installation requirements after the existing
substrate conditions are uncovered and determined. Final hearth extension
installation will be according to either the original Superior Fireplace Co.
Mdl. 1038 installation manual or 2021 IBC fireplace requirements.
Item #3 (Front Entry Door U-value Requirement):
Also shown on Sheet A.1, “Demolition & New Work Floor Plans”, and as noted
by the Building Reviewer, Linzhi Douglass, the opaque wood Front Door is
exempt from U-value rating per 2021 IECC R402.3.4 if the assembly is less
than 40 SF. As the door is 3’x8’ = 24 SF, it is exempt.
