Can't remember if they have CAD or just PDF details, but they do have details : Vulcan Vent Website

My Lesson plan kindve fell apart, ha Please ask any questions though, helps me learn how to teach

lol, my godmother has spelled it wrong for 37 years everyone calls me Rabbitt for the most part- this was funny

Do my best to hit the major points and maybe truncate that time as well as share the load with Graham... I may just show final versions on exterior shots and explain the methods instead of working through it...I will work through the interior shot Graham will certainly have some worthwhile notes to add to exteriors that I am interested in, it's worth putting him on stage

Hate it

not so: "Section 12.68.020 Undergrounding utilities. It is the intent of the city to ensure that all new utility services and relocated existing utility services, are placed underground, including additions and/or tear-downs of fifty (50) percent or greater to existing buildings, excluding basements. Therefore, the following shall apply:"

I see this as interpretation, I don't see anything in this municipal code that states that it would require a new service, just that any new service must be underground if the project falls under this criteria.... meaning that if you can leave the existing service and it is suitable for your addition you will not be required to install a new service.. whats your take @Richard_Morrison ?

ok, this does not require an additional service drop, unless owner requested or you are relocating service drop, and you can do a service upgrade without triggering this requirement

also, do you require a new service? is this an ADU where the owner has requested new service? can you just install a sub-panel to satisfy the owner req's?

FYI: In areas served by existing overhead facilities, all new service drops shall be installed underground from the most convenient existing pole. and this one may help: Residential properties that are served by utilities located in rear yards on standard lots with frontage on only one public right-of-way shall not be required to underground existing overhead services. from this link: click me!

Jim, you mind first detailing the type of addition, is it detached, what is the current conditioned floor area excluding garage and what is the existing garage floor area and then what is the proposed conditioned floor area and then the proposed additional garage?

maybe a viable solution? 2019-03-14 13-51-15.mp4

was just going off of memory, trying to grind away at a plan-check at the moment, ughh

this isn't worth time to create IMO, just a note 1/4" per ft should suffice no? Gave up trying to show slopes(floor sloping) a long while ago, doesn't serve any purpose other than to satisfy my being irked , haha if your determined to accomplish this, does a soffit show up in lieu of the ceiling plane not showing up?

Joey has it right here, method as follows: build second floor, set rough ceiling height to the height of your parapet wall. turn ceiling/roof-over to off go to first floor place ceiling joist as ledger use ceiling/floor truss tool alternatively you could keep it as 1 floor and drag walls up past framing should work perfectly

It's Rene , haha Hope everyone can join

Oh I beg to differ https://www.span.com/compare/WDS500G2B0B-vs-MZ-V6E500BW/62384-59582 Not apples to apples but YOU will notice the difference

I would pay for this- I've wanted to use it before as a method, parsing qty from qty of notes

you could also make a poly line area macro report for requirements and input into a note to show required area- in the table

@HumbleChief @Joe_Carrick @builtright3 Did a super simple schedule using notes- Joe's method is better but above my skills at writing macros- didn't complete this but you can reverse engineer to your needs. Qty needs to be input in macros, multiplies qty times NFA and reports...totals simply adds value together @Joe_Carrick can you pull qty from a qty of notes present? plan file containing schedule: vent area schedule.plan

Comes down to liability really, heaven forbid a house burns down...not saying the fire dept. would discover the ventilation was wrong but... Richard was correct, gave him a +1 Bay Area we are getting a lot of contract plan checkers who don't miss a detail

I know you stated that you stray away from macros but these would be a very simple couple of macros and a note schedule to create a very dynamic ventilation spreadsheet

oh man I missed that, just saw the form factor and glossed over the pinout...lame for Joe

ahh Okay, I see it... so in conclusion, pretty sure he has the 860 evo SATA 2.5" as a primary with a WD500 NVMe as a data drive not being used, and then the firecuda got ditched as he probably only has 1 SATA 2.5" space available

curious now if the 860 evo is an m.2 or SSD, I thought it used to be that the 800 series had no m.2 drives, not the case anymore or I am mistaken
