RE: Plan Review 36/46 Platoz Drive Uncasville,
Dear Vern,
The Town of Montville Fire Marshal reviewed plans submitted to complete the two eight(8)
family dwelling units located at 36 and 46 Platoz Drive. In accordance with the code
modification approved by the State Fire Marshal sprinklers are not required but the rest of the R-
2 occupancy must meet all of the requirements of the 2005 Connecticut Fire Safety Code. We
will need the following information or details to complete the code review.
1. CFSC 2005 section 1010 ramps, provide details on the ramp so compliance can be
determined.
2. CFSC 2005 section 1012 guards, provide details on the guards on the deck.
3. CFSC 2005 section 1009 stairs, the stairs do not meet the requirements of the fire code,
submit stair details.
4. CFSC 2005 section 1009 handrails, no handrail details were provided.
5. CFSC 2005 section 701.1, references the Connecticut State Building Code for fire
separations. Provide details on the rated fire separations such as UL or FM.
Until we get the requested information code compliance cannot be determined. If you should have
any questions please contact me at the Montville Fire Marshal's Office.

Gentlemen:
This letter report is to inform you that on this date I have performed an investigation and analysis
of the soils in the area adjacent to the basements of the subject buildings. Test holes were
excavated with a backhoe to a depth limited by apparent bedrock. The attached sketch provides
all the details of the investigation.
The soil adjacent to both foundations was found to be dry with no positive indications of a water
table or moisture above or within 5 feet below basement floor elevation. As a result waterproofing
of walls in accordance with IBC 1807 is not required.
If you have any questions please contact me.

Dear Mr. Smith
On Dec. 7,2009 our office received a letter with your responses to our letter of rejection dated Nov.2,2009
on the plan review of the proposed structures at 36&46 Platoz Dr. Please note that items 2 thru 5 of your
responses are acceptable and address those issues.
Your response to item 1 is,however,further rejected.All bathrooms in the type B units must be adaptable
and sized accordingly with regard to clearances for fixtures. If the doors are to swing into the bathrooms as
shown on the drawing,then they encroach on the required fixture clearance space.Note, if you choose to
reverse the doors,then the approach to these doors must be addressed per 404.2.3.1 of ANSI A117.1-2003.
Please make the necessary changes and forward to our office for further review. Thank you
If you have any further question please contact us at our office at 860-848-3030 Ext. 382.
Thank you.
Respectfully Yours
