STRUCTURAL DESIGN
6-1
GENERAL. General: The structural criteria established herein shall be used for
structural loading, design and installation of structural systems and foundations, including
manufacturing, erection, supervision, testing, and quality assurance of the completed
installation of the buildings. Structural calculations shall be checked and initialed as such by a
registered engineer other than the original design engineer. Construction Documents
(drawings and specifications) shall be sealed and signed by a Professional Engineer registered
and licensed to perform work in the jurisdiction.

STRUCTURAL WORK. The structural work generally consists of, but is not limited
to, design and construction of:
6-2.1
Building Foundations - Spread footings, piles, drilled piers or others as
recommended by the geotechnical report.
6-2.2
Ground floor slab systems - Slab on grade, pile supported or framed over crawl
space as recommended by the geotechnical report.
6-2.3
Load Bearing and Nonload Bearing Walls - Including masonry, concrete, or stud wall
construction acting as primary vertical load carrying members and/or shear walls.
6-2.4
Vertical Framing Members - Including steel and concrete columns or masonry
pilasters.
6-2.5
Horizontal Framing Members - Including roof and floor decks and diaphragms, roof
and floor beams, joists and trusses.
6-2.6
Interconnection Details - Including all fastening requirements.
6-2.7
Special Conditions - Such as expansion, construction, control joints, and changes in
floor levels.
