3-2.3.1 Structural Notes. The drawings must contain a set of "Structural Notes"
which provide critical reference information for use when future modifications and
evaluations are made (e.g., Design Criteria, References to Design Standards, General
Construction Requirements). The Structural Notes must also include a summary of the
quality assurance requirements.
Drawings that include a standard approved design for Ammunition and Explosive
storage facilities must include a note clearly identifying the source, name, and date of
the standard design.
3-2.3.2. Foundation Conditions. The structural notes on the drawings must fully
describe the foundation conditions, including the following, where applicable:
3-2.3.2.1 Describe site conditions, type of foundation to be used and the method
employed to determine allowable soil bearing values.
3-2.3.2.2 Indicate the maximum dead load, dead + live load and combined dead + live
+ seismic/wind design bearing values.
3-2.3.2.3 Indicate the passive, active and at rest design pressures, the coefficient of
friction and the sub-grade modulus.
3-2.3.2.4 Indicate if a site-specific design spectrum has been used in the design and
give the site class in accord with the seismic design criteria used in the seismic design.
3-2.3.3 Materials. The structural notes on the drawings must clearly define the types,
grades, and properties of materials for each structural element and system.
3-2.3.4 Soil Boring Logs. Soil boring logs must be reproduced on the construction
drawings.
3-2.3.5 Loads. The structural notes on the drawings must provide loading information
in accordance with UFC 1-200-01. Identify the source for all loads listed.
3-2.3.5.1 List mooring, berthing and deck loads for marine structures, including ship
classes, (e.g., DDG 51, CG 47, CVN, etc.) with associated displacements.
3-2.4
Calculations.
3-2.4.1 Structural calculations must support all items and details outlined on the
drawings and specifications. Structural calculations must be legible, orderly, and easily
understandable. A registered practicing structural engineering different from the
originator must check calculations.
3-2.4.2 Structural calculations must include a cover sheet indicating the project title,
location, construction contract number, and the names of the persons originating and
checking the calculations.
