FW: Yeldell Addition/Remodel - Permit #BLRE-07-19-5852
Rob & Skyler
I just realized that the email sent to Rob this morning (see below) is the second correction notice I sent out on this
project. Please ignore the initial notice sent out at the end of the day on Friday, as the email sent earlier this morning
has my final edited comments on corrections needed before we can issue a building permit.
Sorry for any confusion about this.

We have begun preliminary review of plans submitted for an addition/remodel of the Yeldell Residence located at Grass
Mesa Ranch, Lot L9. However, there is not adequate information included in the plans submitted to our office for us to
finalize our review and issue a building permit.
More specifically, we need for the following items to be addressed:
L. Structurat Framins - No information is provided regarding how the proposed addition and new roof framing will tie
into the existing manufactured residence. Whenever a manufactured house is structurally modified beyond the
original CDOH or HUD approved structure, the Building Dept. requires a Colorado licensed Structural Engineer (P.E.)
to provide clear documentation as to how the existing and new structural systems will be joined together. Specific
issues to be addressed include:
A. Provide a Roof Framing Plan including truss layout and specifications including appropriate snow and wind
load requirements (L15 mph Ultimate wind speed not 80 mph as called out on plans). All roof loads must be
tracked down to foundation below and demolition of existing roof structure, as well as any new structural
header beams need to be illustrated. Provide detail at new upper roof tie-in to existing roof ridge.
1
B. New Truss Bearing Wall Framing - A new 5 L/8" x L5" GL beam is shown at the north side of the new living
room, but structural loads do not track down to a foundation below at the new addition. This beam is
located above a cantilevered (new) floor and unsupported length is too long for it to act as a cant¡lever, but
no other transfer of structural loads is shown. On the other bearing line of new trusses there is no indication
whatsoever as to what supports them - at either new or existing walls. Structural Engineer needs to add
clarity and maybe this can be indicated on Roof Plans described above?
C. Engineer to verif,i wall bracing (shear) requirements, as we don't see anything addressing these structural
provisions or tying in the new addition to the existing structure.
D. We need verification from the Structural Engineer that design complies with the 2015 l.R.C. (not 2009 l.R.C.
as shown on plans).
E. Verification from the Structural Engineer is also required for wind load requirements = 115 mph "ultimate"
wind speed (not 80 as incorrectly shown on plans).
2. Existing Basement - ls the existing basement finished or unfinished? lf finished, does it include any additional
bedrooms? lf so, alteration of the existing septic system will be required as our records indicate it was constructed
to accommodate a maximum of only 3 bedrooms.
3. New Basement - Will the new basement be finished or left unfinished? lf finished, will it contain any additional
bedrooms? (see comments immediately above)
Thank you for your prompt attent¡on to providing us with these outstanding items. Once we receive the requested
information we willfinalize our plan review and issue a permit.

YeldellAddition - Grass Mesa Ranch, Lot 19
Rob
We have begun review of plans submitted for an addition/remodel of the Yeldell Residence located at Grass Mesa
Ranch, Lot 19. However, there is not adequate information included in the plans submitted to our office for us to finalize
our review or issue a building permit.
ln particular, we need for the following items to be addressed:
j.. Structural Framing - No information is provided regarding how the proposed addition a nd new roof framing will tie
into the existing manufactured residence. Whenever a manufactured house is structurally modified beyond the
original CDOH or HUD approved structure, the Building Dept. requires a Colorado licensed Structural Engineer (P.E.)
to provide clear documentation as to how the existing and new structural systems will be joined together. Specific
issues to be addressed include:
A. provide a Roof Framing Plan including truss layout and specifications including appropriate snow and wind
load requirements (115 mph Ultimate wind speed not 80 mph as called out on plans). All roof loads must be
tracked down to foundation below and demolition of existing roof structure, as well as any new structural
header beams need to be illustrated. Provide detail at new upper roof tie-in to existing roof ridge.
B. No structural header beams are illustrated on the existing exterior wall to be removed at master bedroom &
living room.
C. A new S t/8" x 15" G L beam is shown at the north side of the new living room, but structural loads do not
track down to the foundation. ln fact, the beam is located above a cantilevered (new) floor and no transfer
of structural loads is shown in this location.
D. Engineer to verify wall bracing (shear) requirements, as we don't see anything addressing these structural
provisions or tying in the new addition to the existing structure.
E. We need verification from the Engineer that design complies with the 2015 l.R.C. (not 2009 LR.C. as shown
on plans).
F. Verification from Engineer is also required for wind load requirements = 1"1-5 mph "ultimate" wind speed
(not 80 as shown on Plans).
Z. Existing Basement - ls the existing basement finished or unfinished? lf finished, does it include any additional
bedrooms? lf so, alteration of the existing septic system will be required as our records indicate it was constructed
to accommodate a maximum of only 3 bedrooms.
3. New Basement - Will the new basement be finished or left unfinished? lf finished, will it contain any additional
bedrooms? (see comments immediately above)
Thank you for your prompt attention to these outstanding items. Once we receive the requested information we will
finalize our plan review and issue a permit as soon as possible.
