The following written requirements are to be followed by the delegated engineer in preparing his engineering documents on that portion of the project utilizing prefabrication components:
1.
All shop drawings shall be in conformity with the architect or engineer of record framing plans unless prior written approval is obtained from the architect or engineer of record. If re-framing is approved, the architect or engineer of record shall resubmit revised framing plans to the building official after receiving updated plans from the delegated engineer showing all adjustments necessary to safely transmit all applied loads to the foundation.
2.
All details and sections required to show the size and connections of all secondary members will be supplied on the delegated engineering plans and shall show all framing, connections and bracing on one or more primary plans.
3.
8½" × 11" cut sheets showing individual member design shall also be furnished to the architect or engineer of record, but it will be necessary to transfer all gravity and uplift loads shown on these cut sheets to the primary plans.
The intent of the above requirements is to provide all information on framing, connections and bracing on one composite set of plans approved by the architect or engineer of record to aid in the review, approval and field inspection for the portion of the property.
(iv)
The plans shall include a schedule similar to the one shown below to be filled by the Architect or Engineer of Record.
