Jan-30-97 02:13A P.03 Pro~ect No. 21-0396 RaytheonlRu~t Notes of Meeting GAM.041 Sheet 2 of 4 ITEM DESCRIPTION OF DISCUSSION ACTION COMPL. BY DATE State Department of Insurance, Safety Service Group 1. A genera~ introduction to the Concord Project was made by Odia Hill and Jerry -- -- Orazem, emphasizing the Project size, fast track nature, anticipated construction schedule (start foundations 3-97, occupy main buirding 9098), proprietary espac<s of the process, status of design (soil erosion plan currently under review, Code Compliance plans anticipated in three weeks), location of greenfield site, nature of County Inspection Departmental contacts already made. and construction philosophy (multiple release contract packages) anticipated. 2. Barry Gupton clarified that only buildings over 75,000 SF require formal State review -- ' -- and filing of permanent drawing records with the Department of Insurance. Building size for determination of review Is limited to floor plan areas within separation walls or space setbecks. Thetantative plans presented (with 4-hour separation walls between core/fibermaking (FM), fibermaking/warehouse, and fiben'naking/fibermaking at draw) and the 40' space separation cf the Administration Building segregate the facility into areas less than 75,000 SF precluding the requirement for formal State review. The cefeteda was also noted as designed for less than 300 people which relieves formal State review requirements. 3. The Department of Insurance will perform informal reviews as requested by local -- -- County Building Department(s). These reviews can be handled on an informal basis by appointment (two weeks notice required). B. Oupton will keep a tile copy of review drawings for reference which will be destroyed after about one year. If drawing reviews are performed, drawings should include architectural, structural, foundalion, building plumbing, building electrical, building ventilation, etc. Building services related to process systems are not required for review. Code Compliance Drawing Review must include layout of process equipment for egress confirmation; process layout drawings for such Review will not require retention by the State. Quantities and locations of hazardous materials used and stored in the buildings must accompany the Code Compliance drawings. Local Fire Marshall Review of materials stored will be required. Fire Marshall will be interested in reviewing sprinkler system, fire alarms and life safety. Only major revisions (changes that effect building Code requirements) to drawings would require additional reviews. NOTE: The State can deny access to retained drawing records. Retained documents require prior permission before any public review. 4. Drawing reviews will culminate in a State review letter issued to the Designer with -- -- copies to Local County officials. If detailed design drawings are reviewed, allow two weeks turnaround for the Department of Insurance. Code Compliance Drawing Review (with process equipment layout plans for egress travel distance) can be accomplished on the spot (in Raleigh) with two week notice and an appointment. If requested by the County, · State revis~v letter is required to obtain a building permit prior to placing concrete foundations (site earth moving can proceed without a building permit). 5. Steve Myers discussed the various aspects of our current building plans, including -- -- separated areas, building heights, number of floors, exits, planned egress travel, stain*my locations, travel distances anticipated and projected actual occupancy numbers (less than 200 people to entire building), end location and design of process equipment penetrating building f]0ors. B. Gupton determined that the facility will be considered a muitistory building. We are planning for Type IV unprotected building construction for all areas. Fire Protection Systems (FM-200 gas extinguishing system at computer rooms, preacfion system at elevator equipment and UPS rooms, wet pipe sprinklers all remaining areas except core laydown ancl electrical rooms which will be generously ou[~[[ed with smoke detectors; manual fire alarm systems will be in all areas) are being provided. Current building layout provides for exits based upon Code requirements considering gross square fcotages and building space.
