BDS structural calculation Notes


Scope of the calculations

These calculations have been prepared at the request of the present owners of the above property and cover the design of the new build as a design concept.. No
warranty is given by the issue of the calculations to the structural integrity of any other part of the proposed structure for which the calculations and structural advice has
been given.

Measurement and dimensions

Dimensions and details are the purpose of the calculations has been taken from the Architects drawing. The person responsible for carrying out the works should ensure
that the dimensions used in the calculations are checked onsite before ordering materials or fabrication. Any discrepancies or dimensions found to be significantly different
from that assumed should be brought to the attention of BDS, so that such a discrepancy can be checked, and if necessary, the calculations amended.

Building Regulations approval

The owners of the property are advised that the approval of the local authority and the discharge consent from the adopting water company and utilities company should
be obtained to the calculations prior to any ordering of materials or fabrication. No responsibility is accepted for any changes that may be required as a result of work having
proceeded before such approvals have been obtained.

Disclosure

All calculations are the intelligent property of BDS and can only be sent to the intended recipients of BDS. The intended recipients are; the client, and Building control and
any checking authorities for and on behalf of Building control. The administering, copying or revealing of these calculations to any other unauthorized third parties in any
format whatsoever is strictly prohibited without the express permission of the Director of BDS structural design services namely James Robert Burgess BSc (Hons).

Liability
By checking and reading these calculations the reader accepts severable Liability of the design. BDS accepts no Liability for the installation of the design and the quality of
workmanship, materials and construction operations implicated by the design. Nothing in the contract confers nor purports to confer on any third party neither any benefit
nor any right to enforce any terms of this contract pursuant to the contracts (Rights to third parties) act 1999.

NOTES

These calculation have been prepared in order to discharge the original planning conditions


16) Development shall not commence until a feasibility study into the use of infiltration
drainage methods has been submitted to, and approved by the council. The analysis
shall contain the results of soakaway tests and an appraisal of various infiltration
drainage methods that could reasonably be employed on the site. If disposal of surface
water via infiltration is not feasible, disposal to sewer may be acceptable. In order to
assess the allowable discharge from the site, (ie 30% less than existing discharge), the
developer shall provide details of the existing drainage layouts on the site, together
with pipe sizes, gradients and connection points, as well as a plan showing the
measured impermeable areas of the site. A surface water attenuation system shall be
provided which ensures that the allowable discharge is not exceeded for the 1 in 100
year event including a 30% uplift for climate change.

To ensure sustainable drainage and flood prevention in accordance with LCCs Natural
Resources and Waste LDF 2013 and the NPPF.

17) Development shall not commence until a scheme detailing surface water drainage
works has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority.
The works shall be implemented in accordance with the approved scheme before the
development is brought into use, or as set out in the approved phasing details.
To ensure sustainable drainage and flood prevention in accordance with LCCs Natural
Resources and Waste LDF 2013 and the NPPF.

18) The site shall be developed with separate systems of drainage for foul and surface
water on and off site.

In the interest of satisfactory and sustainable drainage.

19) No development shall take place until details of the proposed means of disposal of foul
and surface water drainage, including details of any balancing works and off -site
works, have been submitted to and approved by the Local Planning Authority.

To ensure that the development can be properly drained.

20) Unless otherwise approved in writing by the local planning authority, there shall be no
piped discharge of surface water from the development prior to the completion of the
approved surface water drainage works and no buildings shall be occupied or brought
into use prior to completion of the approved foul drainage works.

Many of the Surface attenuation calculations, brownfield and Greenfield calculations are shown in the Appendix of the
Feasibility report the calculations in this document cover the proposed drainage network and components
