FIRE INSPECTOR KHET 4/22/2021 4/22/2021 DISAPPROVE
D *Courtesy
Checked-in on status of installed and
adjusted racks. No inspections have been
appropriately requested. Sought
opportunity to educate and assist the
management and ownership on how to
finalize project. Emailed results: I have
visited the site today to observe the current
conditions.
I’m trying to help in getting this project
completed and finaled.
To note, the 4th row of racks (3rd double-
row) has been eliminated due to the impacts
to the operational work space needs.
The cross arm assembly spanning the
overhead of the aisleways and connecting
the rack verticals has been modified by a
welding of an approximately 8-inch
extension.
Here is a link to view the photos I took.

Attached are my field notes documented on
the fire plan set. I have included slight
measurement modifications observed.
I will defer to building as far as any revision
needs or certifications.
Regardless, coordinated and scheduled
inspections both with Building and Fire are
needed.
Respectfully,

Re: High-Pile / Rack Storage – 2nd Fire Plan Review – AMERICAN TIRE DEPOT
FHPR2020-0001 / 79762 HIGHWAY 111, LA QUINTA, CA 92253
The plans and report you submitted for the above referenced project have been reviewed by Riverside
County Fire Department - Office of the Fire Marshal personnel and require the following corrections:
1) Fire Comments (Sheet 2 – Floorplan and Elevation details):
a. The Floorplan detail no longer identifies the location and dimension of the (3) existing
partition (screen) walls that are in place approximately 2’2” off the exterior wall windows.
In communication with Bedros Darkjian, there is no current plan to remove or modify these
partition walls.
b. The location of the East partition wall creates a too narrow aisle passageway, therefore
creating (2) dead-end aisles in the rack assembly area. The length of the proposed rack
assembly scaled out to 58-feet. CFC 3206.10.3 prohibits dead-end aisles from exceeding 50-
feet.
c. In the Elevation Detail, and as commonly observed in this tire-rack storage assembly, a tire-
in-rack protrusion is detailed. Current detail estimates a 6-inch tire-in-rack protrusion, which
is believed to be a minimum dimension and not an average expected. Analyses of the largest
diameter tire to be commonly stored should be considered to better identify expected
protrusion into the aisle space.
d. Tire-rack storage assemblies shall be installed an appropriate distance from the other, with
consideration to the dimensions of protrusion likely to be observed, in order to maintain a
minimum 44-inch clear aisle width dimension. (CFC 3206.10.1.1)
2) *The provided High-Piled Storage Technical Report as signed by FPE Steven Biship (FP-1556) has
been stamped approved by La Quinta Office of the Fire Marshal.
3) **Building Department is reviewing Structural separately under permit BOTH2020-0009. Plans and
details shall match appropriately.
All questions regarding the meaning of these conditions should be referred to the Office of the Fire Marshal
staff at (760)777-7074.
