Client:
Marney Electric
175 Main Street, Leeds
Northampton, MA 01053
26 January 2016 – Peter Quintana, Sean Haskins
Bob's office on the second floor has been enlarged by 12” to 10'-2” deep with the stair and structure corrected to accommodate
all joists have been installed at 12”oc (increased strength from proposal)
all the Hilti bolts have been installed to avoid the joist hangers at 12”oc in pairs, meeting the number designated for support
Jeff's office will have a higher suspended ceiling (9' above floor)
1 February – Peter, Sean, Miguel Beriche
Jeff made aware that building permit is not issued; must solve Lavatories (propose a Code Compliance Alternative to allow continued use of the lavatories as is). Jeff and Peter reviewed
options for making the existing Office Area lavatory compliant in the future – can diminish the closet under the stairs in order to install a 3' door to the lavatory and maintain 18”
clearance to wall on the knob side. The stair angle will be low. Can also add compliant grab bars in the lavatory.
The middle bay purlin for the former garage overhead door will be relocated up in order to install windows in Bob's office. There was a steel strap bolted to the ridge area and welded
to the purlin which will be cut and reattached to the purlin in the higher location; this strap was probably for the overhead door motor, but will increase rigidity.
11 February – Rob, Chad
progress is good; walls and floors framed; some electrical in
existing wall patching underway
26 February – Moran heating
wall framing seems complete
electrical seems complete
installations good
1 March – followup on emails and conversation with Alex -
the building's separation on the two sides (South and East) with exterior doors is in excess of 30' to property line and only less than 30' at rear (North), approx. 25' thus no exterior
doors require fire protection and the north wall will contain approx. 10% glazing (Table 705.8 max. 70%)
the interior bearing walls have been constructed in the former center South room to be 1 hr protected with 5/8” Type X gypsum wallboard which is returned to the CMU walls to maintain
the existing passage doors in the CMU walls. The support assembly is intact and protected; the steel doors will not be changed.
The insulation will be augmented as outlined by Alex who will be attentive to the heating envelope (assumed to be the building perimeter)
15 march – various sheetrockers on site
additional foam insulation added to underside of roof
sheetrock underway
OSB/Advantek for strength around stair structure and center room bearing walls
