President September 22,2015 Salem Building Department Salem,MA Re: Solar Panels Roof Structural Framing Support To Whom It May Concern: I hereby certify that I am a Licensed Professional Engineer in the State of Massachusetts. Please note the following conclusions regarding framing structure, roof loading,and proposed site location of installation: 1. Existing roof framinq: Conventional framing is 2x4 at 19" o.c.with 4'-3" span (horizontal rafter projection). This existing structure is definitely capable to support all of the loads that are indicated below for this photovoltaic project. 2. Roof Loading • 4.33 psf dead load(modules plus all mounting hardware) • 30 psf snow live load (50 psf ground snow live load reference) • 4.5 psf dead load roof materials • Exposure Category B, 115 mph wind uplift live load of 19.6 psf(wind resistance) 3. Address of or000sed installation: Residence of Margaret Busteed,41 Balcomb St.Salem,MA This installation design will be in general conformance to the manufacturer's specifications, and is in compliance with all applicable laws,codes,and ordinances, and specifically, International Residential Code/ IRC 2009,2011 NEC,and 2012 ICC Energy Code. The spacing and fastening of the Unirac mounting brackets is to have a maximum of 64" o.c.span along the rail between mounting brackets and secured using 5/16"x 3%" length corrosive resistant steel lag bolts. In order to evenly distribute the load across the roof rafters,there shall be a minimum of 2 mounting brackets per rafter B min.2" penetration of lag bolt per bracket,which is adequate to resist all 115 mph wind live loads including wind shear. The mounting brackets shall alternate between adjacent rafters between rail rows for better distribution of roof load. Penetration of anchors for modules mounted within 18" of ridge and edges of roof is to be a minimum of 3". Rails may be attached to either of two mounting holes in the L-feet. Mounting in the lower hole for a low profile,more aesthetically pleasing installation or mount in the upper hole for a higher profile to maximize airflow under the modules to cool them more.Slide the 3,8-inch mounting bolts into the footing bolt slots. The rails will be attached to the footings with the flange nuts. Very truly yours, Optimize Engineering Co., LLC �,�,✓s- (?s ' .��A OF MASS ,9CyZICHARD Richard B. ordon; PA. RGoRDO B.
