Please provide a copy of the lease agreement.
Provide the following note under Project Data:” This facility is not designed by residential occupancy. Any residential uses are strictly prohibited.”
The proposal of the security divider above the partition wall is design for security between tenants without affecting the fire-sprinkler spray pattern. In addition, any racking design 12 feet and above requires the Orange County Fire Authority’s (OCFA) approval. Please submit plans to OCFA as soon as possible.
Include sheet F0.0 and F1.0 under Sheet Index.
The floor plan shows one standard parking stall is converting to an accessible van parking space. The access aisle must be located on the passenger-side of the van space.

Sheet A0.1
Code Compliance Note #2: Include the Business occupancy (B) on note #2.
Code Compliance Note #3: The code-referenced number is incorrect.
Code Compliance Note #3: List the factory, storage, and business occupancy requirements for the class rating of the interior walls and ceiling finishes.
Code Compliance Note #3: Replace the label “Vertical Exit Ways” to “Interior exits, ramps, and exit passageways”.
Code Compliance Note #3: Replace the label “Other Exit Ways” to “Corridors, enclosures for exit access stairways and ramps”.
Code Compliance Note #3: Revise the class rating of the “interior exits, ramps and exit passageways” from “C” to “B” on the Business (B) occupancy.
Code Compliance Note #4: The code-referenced number is incorrect.
Code Compliance Note #5 Table: Revise the maximum common path of egress travel distance to 75 feet on the factory occupancy row.
Code Compliance Note #6: The code-referenced number is incorrect.
Code Compliance Note #7: Note #7 indicates dimension adjacent to doors; however, there is no such dimension on the floor plan.
Code Compliance Note #10: Provide additional note on note #10 such that exit doors are readily openable from the egress side.
Code Compliance Note #10: The code-referenced number is incorrect.
Code Compliance Note #11: The code-referenced number is incorrect.
Provide the following note:” The force for pushing or pulling open interior swinging egress doors, other than fire doors, shall not exceed 5 pounds. These forces do not apply to the force required to retract latch bolts or disengage other devices that hold the door in a closed position. For other swinging doors, as well as sliding and folding doors, the door latch shall release when subjected to a 15-pound force. The door shall be set in motion when subjected to a 30-pound force. The door shall swing to a full-open position when subjected to a 15-pound force.
When measuring the travel distance, it is important to consider the natural path of travel. The storage, furnishing,and equipment layout are unknown for each tenant in this facility. The designer must measure the travel distance with the most conservative approach. Instead of the hypotenuse measurement, use the legs of a triangle to measure the travel distance from the most remote point of the room to the centerline of the doorway.
First Plan Review Comment: Using the travel-distance measurement as described in plan check comment #20, there are few rooms that the common path of egress travel distance exceeds the maximum of 100 feet. Provide a second exit within those rooms with adequate separation distance per CBC Section 1007.1.1.
Second Plan Review Comment: A corridor is created between space C11 and C12. Specify the width of the corridor. The minimum width is 44 inches. Is the door between unit C11 and C12 equipped with a closer? If this is the case, an additional of 12-inch dimension pass the door strike edge should be included. If the door is equipped with a closer, the corridor width is governed by the door width plus the 12-inch dimension. In addition, provide the following information for the door between unit C11 and C12:
Provide a signage stating that the corridor to be clear and unobstructed at all time.
Provide striping on the floor at the corridor between unit C11 and C12. The purpose of the striping is to discourage storage use.
Sheet A0.2
First Plan Review Comment: Is this building equipped with an emergency voice/alarm communication system? If that is not the case, use the factor of 0.20 inches for each occupant on egress analysis.
Second Plan Review Comment:The factor of 0.20 inches for each occupant has been revised on the egress analysis. Regarding the occupant load calculations, the original submittal indicates a total occupant load of 464. Since the factory occupancy is now considered on this project, the total calculated occupant load is 1,146. This number is more than twice of the original number. Please provide a plumbing fixture calculations in accordance with 2019 California Plumbing Code chapter 4 to ensure the existing plumbing fixtures can accommodate 1,146 people.
The doors on Exit-F shall swing in the direction of egress travel.
Sheet A5.0
Detail 5A: Specify a door handle on the pull-side of the door.
Detail 5A: Remove the slotted plate to avoid occupants using the pad lock.
Detail 5A: The details shows a panic hardware. Provide specification of the door hardware.
Detail 5A: Please confirm the design of detail 5A applies to all existing doors.
Second Plan Review Comment on plan check comments #30, 31, 32, and 33: the door handle and the panic hardware specifications have been provided. It is unclear how the hardware are attached onto the existing doors. Provide a specification of the door and frame assembly with the proposed door handle and panic hardware.

Sheet F1.0
The occupancy groups have changed to Business (B), Factory (F-1), and storage (S-1). See sheet A0.0 for reference. Revise the second paragraph under Occupancies, and consider the factory occupancy requirement under the Fire Protection section.
On detail 2, provide a structural connection between the chain-link barrier and top of the partition that are between the vertical supports. For security reason, a horizontal structural member at the bottom of the chain-link barrier is recommended.
On detail 2 note #2, a specific detail is necessary to modify the existing partition condition. Delete note #2.
Sheet S2 of 2
The structural details on sheet S2 must be consistent with the details on sheet F1.0. Sheet S2 shows a 12-foot horizontal spacing between column supports whereas detail 2 on sheet F1.0 shows 4-foot. Sheet S2 shows the woven mesh material whereas detail 2 on sheet F1.0 shows an 11-gauge chain link barrier. The barrier design above the existing partition wall shall have adequate stiffness and openness to meet the security and the fire-sprinkler spray requirements.
