Salem Building Department
Salem, MA Re: Solar Electric 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 framing: Conventional framing 2x6 at 16"o.c.with 11'4"span (horizontal rafter
projection). This existing structure is definitely capable to support all of the loads that are indicated
below for this photovoltaic project after sister rafters with a 2x6 using (2)10d nails V o.c. Use of(2)
Guard DogTm FMGDO02 screws is approved, or equal shear strength of approx. 120 lb, 1' o.c.at areas
where little space is available only with remainder of member secured with (2)10d nails V o.c. If do
not sister,then install a 2x4 @ 16"o.c. knee wall over an interior bearing wall to limit span of rafters
between supports to 9'-9".
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, 105 mph wind uplift live load of 16.29 psf(wind resistance)
3. Address of Proposed installation: Residence of Xiaofeng Guan, 60 Barstow Street, 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, 2014 NEC,and 2012 ICC Energy Code. The spacing and fastening of the mounting brackets is to
have a maximum of 64" o.c.span along the rail between mounting brackets and secured using 5116"x 31/•"
length corrosive resistant lag bolts. In order to evenly distribute the load across the roof rafters,there shall
be a minimum of 2 mounting brackets per rafter&min.2" penetration of lag bolt per bracket,which is
adequate to resist all 105 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 to be 3" minimum
of anchors for modules mounted within 18"of ridge and edges of roof.
Very truly yours,
