Pleasanton Century House Assessment Report March 30, 2019 Page 2 2. Any project modification will include all new finishes, furniture and equipment within the remodeled space. While some of the existing finishes are cosmetically adequate, any modifications will be extensive enough to require replacement or repair of almost everything. New finishes are assumed to be in keeping with the style of the existing architecture. 3. Upgrades to the existing restrooms will need to. be based on potential uses of the space to determine specific required fixture counts. For this assessment it is assumed that the restrooms will be remodeled to be accessible (with removal of fixtures as required to meet accessibility requirements) and that any additional required fixtures would have. to be accommodated elsewhere on site in a separate structure. 4. The existing electrical service to the building is not adequate for the planned renovations and an upgraded service panel is recommended. The project does not include segregating electrical and mechanical loads to individual panels, as would be required in new construction under current code. 5. The existingmechanical system is at the end of it's useful life and requires replacement to bring to operation, safe, and code compliant standard. Currently there is no HVAC provided at the second level, and any modifications would require the installation of a new system to serve this area. If occupancy increase is anticipated (which is the case in any re -use scenario), all existing equipment, ductwork, and registers will require removal and replacement with multiple units with increased capacity and ducted outside air provisions. 6. The existing plumbing systems are at the end of useful life and require replacement to bring to operation, safe, and code compliant standard. If occupancy change is anticipated, major system rework shall be required, including removal and replacement of all piping and fixtures and equipment. 7. The building structural system exhibits many deficiencies, including dry rot and significant material deficiencies throughout, insufficient shear transfer from roof to walls to foundation, inadequate connections of building framing to foundations and other miscellaneous deficiencies. The following sections present a general Basis of Design for the proposed improvements: Architectural Required Improvements to meet basic code compliance for current or revised floor plans include: 1. Renovation .to existing ramp to provide compliant path of travel to the entry 2. Replacement of stair handrails and modification of stair treads 3. Modification of exterior deck railings for code compliance 4. Replacement of damaged deck material 5. Replacement of exterior siding materials as required to replace weather damage 6. Repainting of exterior surfaces 7. Roofing replacement 8. Interior flooring modifications throughout 28o Bettencourt Street, Sonoma, CA 95476 www.jeffkatzarchitecture.com
