Plan Requirements
(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 (State Fees). 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 (State Fees).(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 (Review of plans and specifications to determine compliance). 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 (State Fees).(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.
