Jerry-
I just received my building permit from San Mateo County for a US Tower
HDX-589. The County Building Dept. accepted the CA PE stamp and signature
on the front of the .pdf copy of the structural calculations package
provided by US Tower. I have heard of some jurisdictions requiring a
"wet-stamp" original signature, but mine was a copy of the original and
they accepted it. If your tower is a commercial design, you should be able
to obtain the manufacturer's PE structural package as part of their product.
US Tower said that if needed they could provide an original wet-stamped and
signed package for an additional charge, but San Mateo County did not
request this.
Good luck, I feel for you, because they never give you a complete list of
requirements when you apply. It seems as if they make up the rules as they
go along!
73,
