10360 Carey Dr, Grass Valley, CA 95945 <br />530-838-5358 <br />The dimensions of a hillside washer for a ¾” rod is 1-5/8” x 2-3/8” (rectangular). This <br />connection was checked for tear out against overstrength level tension loads. The worst- <br />case tension load with over-strength is 10.2 kips. <br />Regarding the rod slenderness check, please note that Chapter D of 360-16, Section D1, <br />actually states that there is no slenderness limit for tension members. The User Note then <br />suggests that a limit of 300 be used (which is where I think you're getting that 300 <br />number from), but the same user note then goes on to state that that suggestion does not <br />apply to rods in tension. <br />Regarding the RISA calculation showing tension rods with a 9.99+ UC ratio, it appears <br />that you were provided with an obsolete set of the calcs. Some of those members had <br />been set and Tension/Compression members rather than just Tension. This creates an <br />error state in RISA that produces the 9.99+ number. The attached calculations have had <br />this updated. <br />Comment 23, if you look at your drawing, it should indicate 135-degree hook at the end <br />per ACI 318 25.7.2.4.1. <br />Response: Detail 5/SC.1 of the ground canopy drawings has been updated to show the <br />135 degree hooks in the hoops around the vertical rebar in the piers. <br />Comments 28/34, if you would like to match the spacing of L2x2 by the purlin, please <br />indicate on the drawing to match the spacing of purlin or at least shown minimum <br />spacing required. <br />Response: Detail 4/SC.2 of the ground canopy drawings now has a note that reads “Angle <br />locations are at purlin locations as shown in the Elevation 3/SC.1.” Detail 3/SG.9 of the <br />garage top canopy drawings now has a note that reads “Angle locations are at purlin <br />locations as shown in the elevations on Sheets SG3 thru SG5.” In the elevation views <br />referenced, it clearly shown which purlins receive angle bracing and the angle brace <br />detail is referenced on those elevations as well. <br />Please feel free to contact me with any questions at (530) 838-5358 or by email at <br />rarashi@appliedec.com. Thank you for your attention to this matter. <br />Best Regards, <br />Rex H.
