P. 503/624-6300 Facsimile: 503/624 -7755 IS P-6 July 16, 2001 u417--e400 RECEIVED HAND DELIVERED Gary Lampella JUL 17 201 Building Official �'MMUNITY DEVELOPMENT City of Tigard 13125 SW Hall Blvd Tigard, OR 97224 Dear Gary, Re: Pacific Corporate Center, Building 7 Tigard, Oregon Herculite Glass Doors, Hewlett Packard, Agilent & Northwest Evaluation Lobby Space On Friday, July 6 we met to review your letter of July 5, 2001 concerning this first floor lobby that serves as a secured public entrance for the three spaces. This was an existing condition that was installed at the time the building was built and the first tenants moved into the space. At that time a single herculite glass door with a glass sidelight on each side was used as an entrance to Northwest Evaluation on the second floor and a pair of herculite glass doors were used for the entrance into Hewlett Packard on the first floor. This spring with the division of Hewlett Packard into two companies, Agilent and Hewlett Packard, we revised the existing Hewlett Packard space to accommodate the two entities in separate spaces. Their desire was to have identical entrances from the lobby opposite each other. At their direction, we complied with this request and submitted drawings for each tenant space to the City for approval. When Bob Poskin saw the entries during the final inspection phases for Hewlett Packard construction, he questioned the condition and compliance with the current code. He indicated the lobby space with glass doors would not be a 1 hour space without 20 minute labeled doors and frames and three quarter hour relights in secure frames. This precipitated your letter and the meeting. The second floor space has access to two exits. One occurs through the lobby space, and the other is through a 1 hour rated corridor and a 2 hour rated stairway exiting directly outside. You agreed the lobby/hallway is considered an intervening room and the fire - rating is not required. Each of the first floor spaces has two or more direct exits to the outside from within the spaces without using the entry lobby. We will review and revise the exit signs on the first floor to reflect emergency egress only to outside'doors. ' A Gary Lampella Page 2 July 16, 2001 We accept your approval of this condition as submitted, including the addition of the second pair of glass entry doors from the lobby into the Hewlett Packard space. Thank you for the detailed and positive review of this condition. Please sign below to indicate the City of Tigard's acceptance of this condition. Sincerely, PACIFIC REALTY ASSOCIATES, L . J ohn H.
