Re: Branner Residence,51/2 Barr Street,Salem,MA
Dear Mr. Laskowski,
As you requested, I have performed a structural evaluation of the roof framing at the above referenced residence. It
is my understanding that solar panels weighing approximately 4 pounds per square foot(psf) are proposed to be
installed on the southwest face of the rear low-slope dormer.
Per your inspection, pictures and layout plan, the dormer roof is framed with 2x10 joists spaced at 16" on center and
spanning 13' horizontally. The joists slope at a L 12 pitch.
The Massachusetts Amendment to the 2009 International Residential Building Code snow chart indicates the
design ground snow load in Salem is 40 pounds per square foot(psf), which translates to a design roof snow load
of 28 psf. The roof dead load of the joists, assumed batt insulation, sheathing and EPDM roof is approximately 10
psf and the addition of the solar panels results in a total dead load of 14 psf.
For this evaluation, it was assumed the rafters are typical spruce-pine-fir no. 2 or better. Our calculations indicate
thejoists are stressed to 53% of their capacity under the full snow load, existing roof dead load and proposed solar
panel weight.Therefore it is my opinion the solar panels may be installed in the proposed areas without
reinforcement of the existing joists.
No other framing areas were included in the scope of this evaluation.
The above opinion is based on the above information provided by you and the assumption that the framing members
and connections are in sound condition. Any deviations from the above criteria discovered during the course of the
work must be immediately brought to our attention.
Please call me with any questions.
