Flag explanation

WH-1 is placed 18" from the east wall of Room 105, the same wall as electrical Panel EP-2. Electrical clause 3 confirms this reduces EP-2's clear working space to ~18", and clause 2 states EP-2 requires 36" of clear working space at its voltage-to-ground condition. The plumbing water heater placement is therefore physically incompatible with the electrical code clearance requirement for EP-2 in the same room.

Clause '1' (plumbing):
1. WH-1 is a 50-gallon gas-fired water heater on an 18" stand, located in Mech/Elec Room 105. It is set 1'-6" (18") clear from the east wall of the room.

Candidate clauses from other disciplines in the same submission (only these may be cited):
[id: 076c85ec-4a24-46a6-a468-fec9fd39a2e2] electrical 3: 3. The plumbing plan (P-101) shows water heater WH-1 set 18" from the same wall as Panel EP-2, which further reduces the usable clear floor space in front of EP-2 to approximately 18" -- coordinate panel and water heater locations with the plumbing engineer.

[id: f59b6e8b-74fb-40ea-80d2-7f748dc69097] electrical 2: 2. Panel EP-2 (Mech/Elec Room 105, 120/208V, 30-circuit) is shown with 30" of dedicated clear working space in front of it. The minimum clear working space required for a panel at this voltage-to-ground condition is 36"; the 30" shown does not meet that minimum on its
own, before even accounting for other equipment in the room.

[id: 9c98e50b-aa8d-4e06-ab20-40cfdec784d2] mechanical 2: 2. RA-1 is a 24"x14" return air duct routed along Grid Line B between Grid 2 and Grid 3, with a bottom-of-duct elevation of +9'-2" AFF. This routing crosses the same bay as structural beam BM-4, whose bottom-of-steel elevation is noted on S-101 as +9'-0" AFF. Because
RA-1's bottom-of-duct elevation (9'-2") is above BM-4's bottom-of-steel elevation (9'-0"), the duct as drawn does not clear the beam -- coordinate a revised duct routing or elevation with the structural engineer before installation.

[id: 3c285255-5b20-4d15-a4d9-46e8df29000a] civil 5: 5. A new 2" domestic water service runs east-west across the site at approximately Station 0+30. A new electrical service duct bank (see E-101 for the building-side routing) runs north-south at approximately Station 0+20.

Does this clause create a coordination conflict with any of the candidates above - i.e. do they describe the same physical space, element, or system in a way that is physically or functionally incompatible?
