• Accommodate regular site visits by the project structural engineering personnel. Drawing Contents The structural drawings should include coordinated framing, foundation and footing plans that use Industry standard graphics and symbols common to structural design documents. It is best practice place general information on the structural basis of design and the Design Criteria for complex project on first sheets. Schematic design should include a presentation of the design criteria, demand loads on the building, and the primary structural system definition including foundations, framing systems, lateral force resisting systems, earth retention systems. Detail design should include the necessary specification, analysis, and detailing that address the interconnections of primary structural elements that form complete load paths. Working drawings that are submitted to OSHPD for review must be complete. They must provide thorough and high resolution detailing that integrates both the interconnection of primary and secondary structural elements with complete load paths as well as details that demonstrate the coordination of other disciplines. The complete specification of required materials and workmanship should be provided. Detailed drawings of anchorage and bracing of non-structural building components should be complete and be accompanied by references to seismic certifications, standard details, and pre-approvals. 3.10 Best Practices for Mechanical Drawings Mechanical Documentation Purpose The purpose of the Mechanical Drawings are intended to depict all mechanical systems and components necessary to provide code minimum heating, ventilating and air-conditioning (HVAC) services within the hospital. Content Based upon the complexity and scale of the project, the information provided on the Mechanical drawings should show clear description of the work required for the project. In many cases, the project may involve the documentation of existing mechanical systems and should clearly identify new versus existing systems. Some of the key components necessary on plans for all projects include: (OSHPD Best Practices) Page 48 DRAFT FINAL, Sept. 2011
• Identify any equipment that requires seismic certification and/or essential power. • Identify equipment mounting detail locations. • Provide humidification and temperature control for sensitive rooms as listed in CMC Chapter 3. • Provide calculations that demonstrate that each room within the project is designed per CMC Table-4A. If the room is not listed in Table-4A, it is important to provide an equivalent room. • Provide humidification and temperature control for sensitive rooms as listed in CMC Chapter 3. • Identify airflow pressure room relationships in either table format or on the plans via flow arrows. • Indicate wall ratings and locations of fire/smoke dampers. Remodel projects within a hospital require precautions to insure that airflows in existing areas outside the project are not affected. Following CAN 2-34-4A is critical in order to minimize OSHPD plan check comments. Some additional key components necessary for remodel plans include: • Identify project boundary and be sure it matches architectural plans. • Identify any temporary construction barriers. • Provide a means to insure that airflows outside the project boundary will be maintained. Information Plans Various types of drawings are necessary to convey essential information such as Schedules, Piping Diagrams, Mounting Details and Control Diagrams. The title page should clearly define the project location and vicinity by graphical means. The applicable building codes should be stated. A drawing index is recommended to clearly identify all the unique systems that may be involved. Site Plans If the project involves outside (exterior) mechanical work, then it should be clearly shown in the site plan documentation. Floor Plans It is recommended to follow the architectural floor plan nomenclature for sheet order and sheet numbering in order to simplify the logical sequence of cross-coordination with all trades (disciplines). Traditionally, the floor plans provide the documentation of the architectural features as a shaded background and the mechanical devices are prominently shown on top of these locations. However, it is important to clearly identify room names and wall ratings for OSHPD review. (OSHPD Best Practices) Page 49 DRAFT FINAL, Sept. 2011
