3.8 Architectural Details Purpose Details developed by the Registered Design Professional are intended to convey construction requirements to the contractors which, when properly constructed, complete the design intent as well as meet the code requirements for structural integrity and life-safety. While it is not possible to provide details that reflect every possible condition of the construction, it is desirable to provide enough details, typical to the various conditions of the project, which establish the minimum construction standards. It is best practice to follow current industry standards when developing these details. For interior partition construction and gypsum ceilings, such standards may include: • CBC, Table 720.1(2) • Gypsum Association, Fire Resistive Design Manual • Leading manufacturers of Gypsum and Metal Stud Products • Metal Stud Manufacturers’ Association (SSMA) • Designs tested and published by an approved testing agency (UL, Intertek, Omega Point, etc.) To further assist in the correct application of interior details for partitions and ceiling construction, OSHPD has established a program of developing pre-approved details which will provide the Registered Design Professional a library of details that, when properly used, meet the structural requirements of California Building Code. For small projects that may be categorized as “Field Review,” “Exempt,” or “Expedited Review,” additional information is provided in the FREER Manual, which provides design criteria for various, minor non-structural work, which a hospital may undertake. Organization and Approach Architectural interior details should be organized, as much as possible, based on subject matter, such as details for structural design, details for fire-resistive construction, and details for non-rated architectural finishes, etc. It is important to provide adequate references on the plans, or in notes, to assist in locating the proper details. General application details may be more appropriate un-referenced on the plans, however, it should be clear where these details apply. Where common standard details are provided for interior partitions, they may be organized in a schedule-type format to allow “tagging” of walls shown on the plans, which reference the various typical construction details. These details may cover required rated construction, acoustical requirements, and typical common construction of chase walls, shaft walls, and walls with radiation shielding. Where fire-resistive partition details are provided, the correct UL, or other testing agency, number must be provided to shown compliance to the intended rating.

Drawing Content For details that provide information on structural connectors, proper sizing of connectors must be supported by engineering calculations and industry-assigned values, according to the loading on the connection and the Seismic Design Category of the Project. Component identification should also conform to industry nomenclature for structural shapes, sizes and weights—such as the standard designation of studs provided by the SSMA. OSHPD has initiated a Standard Details program, which provides typical details which may be used by the Design Professional. OSHPD Pre-approved Details (OPDs) are available from the FDD Website for use by the Registered Design Professional. The responsibility for the proper use and application of these details remains with the responsible Design Professional. (OSHPD Best Practices) Page 43 DRAFT FINAL, Sept. 2011
