<br />, , <br />... <br /> <br />ARMSTRONG, TORSETH, SKOLD AND RYDEEN, INe. <br />ARCHITECTS AND ENGINEERS <br />MEMORANDUM NO. II <br /> <br />Project Numbers 00082 <br /> <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />7. Mist-a fire water suppression system instead of an Ansul system in the kitchen hood is acceptable. 3M duct wrap <br />instead of shaft wall construction at the kitchen hood exhaust duct is acceptable. <br /> <br />8. Banners in the cafeteria will require treatment for acceptable fire spread as was the stage curtain. <br /> <br />9. Bill noted the locations of the makeup air units and the ductwork associated with the kitchen alterations and that the <br />steps in the new roofing will conceal portions of the new equipment. There is no current City zoning ordinance <br />requiring screening of rooftop mechanical equipment. Kim will confirm that there is no change of ordinance proposed <br />to take effect before this summer's construction. Project is scheduled for March issue, bids to be received in April <br />and construction on-site to begin on June 10,2002 - completion to be this fall. <br /> <br />10. A dumpster screen wall is required - various locations and lengths were discussed - those present agreed on a 12' <br />length running north - south adjacent to the exterior stair to the loading dock. <br /> <br />II. Bill noted that with Type II -N construction, open 4 sides, and fire sprinkled the maximum code allowable area of <br />the building is 81,000 square feet. The existing building and addition will total 68,000 square feet. The existing 2 <br />hour area separation waUs are thus not required. No demolition of existing doors across corridors is included in this <br />project. Some doors at the office will be revised as part of a front entrance alternate and will be 20 minute rated. <br /> <br />12. Fire alarm was upgraded with the last addition. Pull station will need to be relocated adjacent to the new north exit <br />from the addition if not already existing. Some fire sprinklers were added with the last addition. Location of the <br />existing fire sprinkler lines were discussed. <br /> <br />13. Curb and gutter are required _ typically B612 is approved - surmountable curb where the District wants to plow snow <br />is acceptable. <br /> <br />14. Bill noted that the new unit ventilators are vertical units and will have new louvers installed at the exterior wall. <br />Window replacement will have brick below the new windows. Existing relief air louvers in the sidelites of the <br />existing classroom doors will be covered with 18 gauge metal plate as the new ventilation is a closed system and air <br />needs to be circulated and exhausted through the new unit. <br /> <br />15. Existing exit walks to remain. New walk provided from new exit to north at addition. 20 minute rated doors <br />separating the dock / hallway to custodial space / kitchen from the corridor. Hallway (not corridor) will be between <br />the loading dock and the kitchen. "High storage" racks will not be provided on the dock. Some palettes of paper may <br />be stacked but it is not anticipated that the height will exceed 12'. <br /> <br />16. Alternate to increase the size of the loading dock will move the chiller and transformer an additional 4 feet further <br />east. <br /> <br />17. Submit 8-1/2 x II plans of survey, site plan, floor plans, exterior elevations to the City by Thursday this week for <br />review by the City Planning Commission on the first Tuesday in March at 6:30. Bill will attend in case there are any <br />questions. <br />
