All items noted on this plan check report must be addressed. If you feel that an item is not applicable to your project, note “N/A” and discuss the reason with the plan checker.Please indicate the sheet number and detail to the right of each correction, or note the number on the plans where the correction is made. Resubmit marked original, calculations and this correction sheet. A separate sheet for response may be used.Resubmit 3corrected sets of plans.Meetings between the project applicant/designer and the plan reviewer shall be by appointment only. Please call (714) 647-5862 for an appointment.The drawings/information submitted for Building Safety Division review is incomplete. The applicant shall, prior to resubmitting, complete all construction documents to show compliance with the 2013 California Building Standards Code with local amendments.Submitted floor plan with “non-rated corridors” does not comply with the requirements of chapter 10 of California Building Code. Before resubmitting the plans to the City for recheck, the architect shall justify the floor area and type of construction for this mixed up occupancy building per chapter 5 of CBC plus showing compliance with Section 1018 of CBC for the requirement for corridors.The City records show a permit was pulled on 9-27-2000, permit # 10125175, that has a “2-hour area separation walls”. This permit shows that the building was divided into 2 parts with rated openings, wrapped G.L.B.s and wrapping the ceiling on both side of the wall, wrapped steel columns,…please review this permitted plan to update the proposed plans.All drawings and supporting documents shall be prepared, stamped and signed by a California licensed architect or registered civil engineer.This review does not include mechanical, plumbing, or electrical work. Separate plans, applications, fees, plan checks, and permits are required for mechanical, plumbing, and electrical work. Call 647-5800 for information.The applicant shall obtain clearances/approvals for the following prior to building permit issuance:
- Planning Division approval on the corrected/final set of drawings (647-5804.) Previously approved plans
should be submitted to expedite the process.
- Orange County Fire Authority approval on the corrected/final sets of drawings ((714)573-6100)due to nature of these plans, the Building Division of City of Santa Ana is requiring that these plans to be checked by OCFA as well. Please contact the OCFA for submitting these plans to them under category of: PR224
- Police Department approval on the corrected/final set of drawings (647-5840)
- Public Works Agency approval (647-5039)
- Proof of Worker’s Compensation Insurance shall be required at the time of permit issuance.Show on the plans:
- Occupancy Classification(s)
- Type of Construction
- Area tabulation justifying floor area(s) of building(s) (CBC Sections 503, 506, 507, and 508 and CBC
Table 503)
- Number, width, and purpose (cite code section) of yards required
- Number and fire-resistive rating of all area separation walls
- Number of stories/mezzanines and building height in feetLabel and note hourly fire rating of:
- Exterior walls
- All corridors
- Fire walls
- Fire barriers
- Horizontal exits
- HallwaysOccupancies storing, handling, using, and/or selling hazardous materials, liquids, and chemicals shall submit a list of all said materials, listing their quantities and how they relate to specific California Building Code Table items. Note on the Floor Plan, type and quantity of hazardous material in each control area and fire-resistive rating for fire barriers.Occupancies using hazardous materials are subject to special requirements. It is the applicant’s/owner’s responsibility, PRIOR TO SUBMITTAL, to make this known to the Building, Planning, or Fire Departments.Reference each fire-resistive assembly to a CBC Chapter 7, Table and Item number:
- Walls
- Ceilings
- Columns
- Structural Elements
- Fire walls
- Fire barriers
- Hallways
- CorridorsProvide typical section view detail of all new partitions and ceilings showing:
- Size, spacing, and material of framing members
- Note gauge and ICC Research Report number and installation/construction requirements for metal framing
members.
- It is the project designer’s responsibility to coordinate work with the various trades to ensure that the size of
the wall cavity will be large enough to accommodate piping, fittings, ducts, etc. There has been a continuing
field problem of 2½” wide metal studs not being able to accommodate plumbing pipes.
- Method of attaching framing to the building structure. Compliance shall be shown with CBC chapter 16
for lateral support of the walls Submit structural engineering calculations for walls in rooms with a floor to building structure above height greater than 14’.
- Reference each fire-resistive assembly to a CBC Chapter 7 Table and Item number.
- Fire/smoke damper locations, installation requirements and required access doors. Refer to CBC chapter 7.Egress from a room or space shall not pass through adjoining or intervening rooms or areas, except where such adjoining rooms or areas are accessory to the area served, are not a high hazard occupancy and provide a discernible path of egress travel to an exit.Table 1015.1 Spaces With One Means of Egress:
OccupancyMaximum Occupant Load
A, B, E, F, M, U49Exiting from any occupied point in a building or structure on the subject site must be continuous, unobstructed, and undiminished to a public way. This includes gates on each side of the building which must show compliance with CDB Section 1008.2. Revise drawings to show compliance.Corridors shall be fire-resistance rated in accordance with Table 1018. The corridor walls required to be fire-resistance rated shall comply with Section 708 for fire partitions.Table 1018.1 Corridor Fire Resistance Rating:
OccupancyOccupant LoadRequired Fire-Resistance Rating (Hours)Served By CorridorWithout sprinklerWith sprinklersystemsystem
A, B, F, M, S, UGreater than 3010Fire-resistance-rated corridors shall be continuous from the point of entry to an exit, and shall not be interrupted by intervening rooms.CBC Section 1018.4, Dead ends. Where more than one exit or exit access doorway is required, the exit access shall be arranged such that there are no dead ends in corridors more than 20’ in length. Provide a complete architectural section of 1-HR. corridor detailing fire resistive rated construction of the walls and ceilings. Detail all duct and other penetrations CBC chapter 7.Provide typical complete section view through one-hour corridor(s) showing compliance with CBC Section 1018:
- Size, spacing, and material of framing members. Note gauge and ICC number and installation/construction
requirements for metal framing members.
- Method of attaching framing to the building structure. Compliance shall be shown with CBC Section 1607.13

- Cabinets such as recessed electrical panels, fire hose cabinets, and recess fire extinguisher cabinets
constructed of steel are permitted, provided that the openings in the fire rated corridor are sealed with
approved sealant material to prevent the passages of smoke.
- Other cabinets should be installed or recessed so that there is no reduction in the fire rating of the wall, or
opening which would allow smoke to pass. This would mean that the cabinet must be surrounded with
material which provides the equivalent of one-hour fire resistance.Note on the drawings: “Maximum effort to operate doors shall not exceed 5 pounds for exterior doors and interior doors, such pull or push effort being applied at right angles to hinged doors and at the center place of sliding or folding doors.The bottom 10” of all doors except automatic and sliding shall have a smooth uninterrupted surface to allow the door to be opened by a wheelchair footrest without creating a trap or hazardous condition.Exit illumination and exit sign requirements in accordance with CBC Section 1011.3 shall be shown on the drawings.
