STRUCTURAL COMMENTS: by: Michael Main, P.E., Plan Check Engineer
(Revised plan set 12-17-2025, therefore new comment list)
1. The structural calculations submitted were not stamped or signed by the engineer of record. All Architectural
and Engineering plans, calculations, specifications and reports shall be sealed or stamped and signed by the
respective registered design professional along with the date of signing and sealing or stamping. (Business
and Professions Code Sec. 5536.2/6735)
(PC2) – The structural calculations are still not stamped or signed. Comment remains.
2. COMPLETED
3. Please specify on the plans the decking required.
(PC2) – Plans call for floor decking to be 5/8” APA rated plywood. CRC R507.2.1 requires all wood
materials for exposed decks to be number 2 grade or better lumber, preservative treated or approved,
naturally durable. Generally decking material is either wood as per CRC Table R507.7 or plastic
composite per CRC R507.2.2. Plywood may be used if it is rated for such permanent weather exposure or
protected from the weather by a weather proof barrier. Please clearly demonstrate compliance on the
plans with one of the methods mentioned above.
The Department of Development Services is currently open to the public from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm. If you wish to
