The inspection was for the first floor due to time constraints. There was missing ceiling tile in many locations and part of the ceiling is missing in the laundry room. Also it appears acouple of pendants are blocked by the surface mount lights in the conference room.

The hangers on the hallway mains have been corrected accept at a couple of locations where the screws could use acouple of more turns. Approximately 60 pendant heads have been installed on 401 canopies so that the light fixtures are no longer a problem. Also I found 3 sprinkler pendants that are located less than the required 8' apart and will need to be relocated. I asked the fitter to verify no others had been missed.

Inspection work done by B. Johnson, with following comments. Troy, Today I spent 3.0 hours on a rough to cover inspection of the Candlewood Suites project. (FIR07-00130) I inspected the second and third floors for code compliance.
The project had several issues not limited to the following.
1. Hangers spacing and listed use through out the corridor on both second and third floors.
2. Heads in the stairwell of both floors were piped from 1" and not 1.25" CPVC as indicated on the plans. The East second floor stairwell was also missing a heads as shown on the approved set of plans. I also noted that the heads were residential heads and were not listed for that application. They should have been FRB as the plans indicated.
3. The heads in the rooms other than the corridor were taped up on the second floor, I could not verify their type.
4. EQ-Bracing was missing on both floors, which was also shown on the plans.
5. The riser piping was installed with out the nominal 2" clearance as required. Flexible couplings at + 1'-0" and -1'-0" from the concrete slab floor were also missing.
6. I did not ask the contractor to open any ceilings up to verify hanger spacing. I was concerned that the ceilings were installed in rooms other than the residential.
Please note that I recorded and dated these notes on the site plans.
And that I can not approve the second and third floors as installed. A re-inspection is required.

Left message with Randy Knutson, of Shiloh Fire Protection, requesting a set of plans for Candlewood suites wet system for fire sprinkler plan reviewer to review and approve under new FIR permit number. This will enable the field inspector to inspect the wet system in the building and allow for the GC to cover inspected areas while the attic system is being redesigned and reviewed under the current FIR permit number.

Meeting held in conference room #3 with GC (Hospitality builders), Johnson Consulting, Troy Cobbley, Jenifer Gilliland, Scott Arellano and George Slaine regarding the ongoing problems with fire sprinkler contractors (Shiloh Fire Protection) attic system design discepencies. (NOTE: Shiloh was scheduled to attend this meeting but did not show up for meeting.)
Discussed course of action to split project into two seperate FIR permits to accommondate the 1st -3rd floor wet system and enable the city field inspector to inspect the wet system while the attic dry system is being redesigned and reviewed. This will enable the GC to cover the 1st-3rd floors and stay on their construction schedule after approved final inspection of wet system.

emailed Shiloh: "Randy, I spoke with Clarence and Sam yesterday regarding the missing data, the plans were not accurately drawn according to Clarence. The remote area information on the plans did not even match the calculation that your office failed to provide. Clarence was given an opportunity to fax a copy of the calculations over to my office for review, the fact is that the review comments would not have even matched the plans that were submitted. In this case it appears that the plans and omitted calculations do not correspond."

Meeting | | | 5/31/2007 | | DONE |

I met in person on 5/31/07 afternoon, in our office, with Tom Schultz, General Contractor of Hospitality Builders and Rob Peterson, Local Job Supervisor, who came in to discuss their concerns with the failed sprinkler inspections and plan reviews. I included Troy Cobbley (fire inspector) by speaker phone to get his input on the inspection history. Subsequently, Brian Johnson, the sprinkler plan reviewer, arrived in person and explained the sprinkler plan review history and the currently outstanding plan deficiencies. I also called the sprinkler contractor, Randy Knutsen at Shiloh, and got his input on the status of resubmitting plans to respond to our 5/24 plan review comments.
The concern of the contractor was to be able to install the 3rd floor ceiling, to keep the drywall work on schedule. The fire inspector had not allowed the drywall ceiling to be installed up to this point, as the attic sprinkler work had not been completed. Such attic sprinkler inspection work is normally done from the floor below, prior to installing the ceiling, since it can be unsafe and difficult to crawl across and through truss web chords to inspect sprinklers in an attic. However, in this case, sprinklers have not been ready for the inspection because the sprinkler contractor resubmitted modified plans for the attic on April 20, and has not yet been able to get the plans correct for approval. We called the sprinkler contractor who indicated the 3rd submittal of these modified plans would be delivered this afternoon.
Resolution: We mutually agreed to allow immediate installation of the 3rd floor drywall ceiling based on the general contractor's agreement to provide temporary lighting and solid walkways within the attic, to allow safe access to the sprinkler heads when they are ready for inspection. Also, the sprinkler contractor agreed to schedule another (2nd) hydrostatic test of the 3rd floor piping tomorrow morning, which we agreed to witness, so the contractor can be sure there are no sprinkler piping leaks, before they install drywall.
The general contractor indicated he had been having communication difficulties with the sprinkler contractor. I explained how to use our on-line permit system to track his projects and to read our plan review and inspection comments.
The contractor seemed pleased when he left and indicated he would stop by the Mayor's office to advise them things had been satisfactorily resolved.

The attic sprinkler system still does not match the approved plans with upright heads overspaced and too far from the deck and earthquake bracing missing. The third floor wet system hangers and tenting have been corrected. The second floor hangers have been corrected. The contractor stated that all of the plan deviations that I marked in red on the city approved plans were ok with Brian and no resubmittals required. I called Brian and he stated that was not the case. I left a correction notice with the fitter stating that resubmittals are required. I gave the fitter permission for only the second floor piping and the piping in the first floor resident rooms to be covered. All other piping is to remain uncovered until it matches the city approved plans or resubmittals are approved. The first floor and second floor hydro tests passed. The third floor hydro test failed. These floors had to be retested due to the main piping being the wrong size. I also aske the fitter for verification that the 3" sch 10 piping could be used incase the piping was submitted as plastic. The plans were not clear about this.

There are many errors including unattached hangers and inadequate tenting. Pipe sizing does not match the plans. The piping in the central first floor area does not match the plans, a loop has been installed. The anti-freeze loop shows two heads but four are actually installed and this is a remote area. Also the anti-freeze loop piping is smaller than what is shown. The revise attic piping plan was not available for inspection of the attic piping.

I started the inspection on the first floor and found the first piece of pipe I looked at was the wrong size. We went to the attic system and found that what was marked on the newest drawings as as-built was not actually installed that why. This includes heads in the remote area and in the dormers. Basically no inspection was done. I spoke to Mike Beerman and he said he would get things taken care of and the inspection called back in.
