PROJEGT: HEGTOR BROWN REMODEL
TWO RESIDENTIAL UNITS
172 DAR'ROW STREET
GLENWOOD SPRINGS, GOLORADO 8160l
TO WHOM lT MAY GONCERN,
THE ORTGTNAL PLANS GALLED FOR A (21-1 HOUR PARTY WALL
ASSEMBLY BETWEEN THE TWO UNITS, WITH 5/8" TYPÊ3'X"
DRYWALL ON BOTH SIDES OF EACH WALL, TAPED, WlTl{ A 1"
AIR SPAGE BETWEEN EACH WALL. DUE TO GONSTRUGTABILITY
oN THE SITE AND EXISTING ROOF OBSTRUGTIONS, THE
SECOND WALL GANNOT BE FRAMED, DRYWALLED, TAPED AND
THEN STOOD AGAINST TI{E FIRST WALL.
THE FTRST WALL lS FRAMED, DRYWALLED AND TAPED ON BOTH
SIDES. THIS WALL HAS ALREADY BEEN INSPECTED.
WE PROPOSE TO ADD A SECOND LAYER OF 5/8'' TYPE '¡X''
DRYWALL TO THE ¡NSIDE FAGE (MIDDLE) OF THIS FIRST WALL
AND TAPE. TI{E SEGOND FRAME WALL WOULD THEN BE
FRAMED lN PLAGE, DRYWALLED WITH 5/8" TYPE ¡'x'' DRYWALL,
TAPED AND FINISHED ON THE ROOM SIDE. THIS SHOULD
GoMPLETE THE (21- 1 HOUR WALL ASSEMBLY.
THIS SEEMS LIKE AN ACGEPTABLE SOLUTION DUE TO THE
NATURE OF THE EXISTING CONDITIONS AND OBSTRUGTIONS.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION OF THIS
MATTER.
StNGERELY,
