Adequate and complete information will prevent delays in the plan review process. Reviewing a plan and the discovery that required information has not been provided by the applicant may result in the delay of the permit issuance and in proceeding with building construction. The owner or contractor may be required to provide this information before the plan review may proceed. This causes delays because other plans that are in line for review may be given attention before the new information may be reviewed after it has been provided to the Building Department. Please review this document to determine if you have enough information to design your project and provide adequate information to facilitate a plan review. If you do not, it may be helpful to obtain a book titled "Dwelling Construction under the Uniform Building Code". This book is available to you through this department at our cost. Also, please consider using a design professional for assistance in your design and a construction professional for construction of your project.

Parachute, CO 81635 Re: 401 Battlement Creek Trail, Battlement Mesa, CO Gentlemen: TEL: (970) 242-8968 FAX: (970) 242-1561 Personnel of Cnand Junction Lincoln DeVore observed the recently placed structural fill on thc above referenced site on 3-1-00. The structural fill was found to consist of approximately 18 inches to 24 inches of native soils which had been wetted, reworked and compacted in the assumed foundation areas. These soils were found to be very similar to the soils described in the report of Subsurface Soils Exploration performed for this site by Grand Junction Lincoln DeVore, Job # 87806 -GJ, 1-29-00. In-place soil density tests taken on the structural fill indicated that compaction was either equal to or in excess of 90% of the modified proctor density (ASTM D-1557) for these materials. The structural fill appears to meet the minimum recommendations in the report of Subsurface Soil Exploration performed by Grand Junction Lincoln DeVore and thc foundation design prepared by Grand Junction Lincoln DeVore. Reference is made to the note "REINFORCING SHALL BE OBSERVED BY ENGINEER PRIOR TO PLACING CONCRETE. STRUCTURE WILL BE REINFORCED AS SHOWN ON PLANS. NO CHANGES IN BUILDING LOADS, REINFORCING OR DESIGN SHALL BE MADE AFTER FINAL INSPECTION." Personnel of Grand Junction Lincoln DeVore have not been contacted by the builder or the owners representative to determine if the foundation components have been properly placed. Although visual observations, measurements and nondestructive testing/measurement of foundation components can be made, certain construction conditions, to include proper lapping of reinforcing steel and definitive sizing of the rein- forcing components, cannot be made without actual exposure of the hidden elements. It is our understanding that the Garfield County Building Official or their representative have made observations of reinforcing steel and possibly form work prior to placement of concrete on this site. Grand Junction Lincoln DeVore does not have written information regarding these observations. Grand Junction Lincoln DeVore cannot render a definitive opinion as to whether the foundation components have been properly placed or not. Other conditions of the foundation design, included in the notes on the Plan view, the individual Foundation Component Details and the listing of Notes, which arc all part of the foundation design documents, arc all considered extremely important. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE NOTES AND SPECIFICATION WILL VOID PART OR ALL OF THIS FOUNDATION DESIGN. It must also be emphasized that future owners or residents of this structure must maintain the drainage and grading requirements and recommendations contained within this foundation design document.
