Or. Admin. Code § 918-674-0065 - Plan Requirements
Plan Review Procedures:
(1) Plans Required. Prefabricated structures
constructed for use in Oregon shall be constructed to plans approved by the
Division or a certified third-party agency. The Division or certified
third-party agencies shall review and approve plans for the construction of
prefabricated structures in compliance with the Oregon Specialty
Codes prior to the construction of a prefabricated structure. The
application for plan approval shall be on forms provided by the Division. The
application shall show the use or occupancy, be accompanied by plans,
specifications and other data and include the plan review fee required by OAR
918-674-0155. Plans shall be
submitted as custom plans or design master plans.
(a) Custom Plans. Plans shall be submitted to
the Division or a certified third-party agency as custom plans if the
manufacturer plans to build just one structure from the plans. If a
manufacturer later decides to build additional structures, the manufacturer can
convert the custom plans to design master plans, if they meet the minimum
requirements for design master plans and an application is submitted to the
Division or a certified third-party agency along with the difference in fees
required by OAR 918-674-0155.
(b) Design Master Plans. Plans should be
submitted to the Division as design master plans if the manufacturer plans to
build multiple structures of the same design according to ORS
455.685. Design master plans
shall meet the minimum requirements for every geographical area for which the
prefabricated structure is designed or intended to be located. The Division may
approve a manufacturer to submit a limited number of design options in a design
master plan. The Division may approve the use of common engineering for
multiple design master plans if properly referenced within each set of plans.
Amendments to design master plans may be submitted to the Division or
third-party agency at any time and shall be reviewed at the current hourly rate
established in OAR 918-674-0155.
(2) Copies Required. At least two
complete sets of plans, specifications, engineering calculations and other
data, when required by the Division, shall be submitted with each application
for plan approval. A minimum of three sets of plans shall be submitted for all
incomplete structures with a "Notice to a Local Enforcement Agency" (NLEA)
form. One set of these Division-approved plans identifying the work to be
completed on site shall be shipped with the incomplete structure for use by the
local authority having jurisdiction.
(3) Plot Plan. When required, plans shall
include a plot plan showing the location of the prefabricated structure in
relation to other buildings on the same property, if any, their exit ways and
property lines.
(4) Approval. If
the Division or certified third-party agency finds that the submittal conforms
to the requirements of these rules and that the fees have been paid, the
documents shall be endorsed in writing or stamped "Approved" and one set
returned to the applicant. The applicant's set of plans shall be kept at the
place of manufacture and shall be made available during inspection.
(5) Records Required. The manufacturer shall
maintain a permanent record of construction documents, by serial number, of all
units manufactured.
(6) If a
manufacturer fails to renew its registration with the Division, all Division
approvals of plans and manuals and unused insignia shall become void.
(7) Applications for units with incomplete
systems shall include a list of all items to be installed on the job site to
complete the units for occupancy.
(8) In addition to the plans described in
this rule, the Division may, when deemed necessary, require the manufacturer of
prefabricated building components and component buildings to submit an
installation manual or installation instructions for Division
approval.
