RE: Project: Vandehey Residence
Project Number: 216242
City of Tigard,
This letter is in response to two contractor questions regarding the Vandehey residence
located at 7568 SW Ashford St. in Tigard Oregon. The questions proposed with their
responses are as follows:
1. Q: l?lectrician drilled hole too close to the bottom of the beam supporting the deck
roof(please see attached) 1 loping this is an over sized beam and we will not have to
replace 6x10?
A: The hole drilled in the 6x10 is not a concern since the hole is drilled at a location
close to the beam support and the beam still has the remaining cross section to
sufficiently resist shear stresses.
2. Q: Platform under the hot tub was spec'd to be framed 12" on-center and was
framed 16" on-center,hoping we can add some doubler members underneath the
hot tub.
A: Double the members at the hot-tub and replace joist hangers with a double
hanger.
Please call me at 503-244-7014 if you have any questions regarding the information in this
review.
This review is based solely on information from the contractor, and no destructive or
subsurface testing was done to verify the information provided. The limitation of liability is
strictly limited to the fees charged for this review.
Sincerely,
