Dear Sirs, TbWN fO 'QUEENSBURY
BUILDING & CODES
I've reviewed the proposed solar panel installation at this location to evaluate the existing roof
structure and the connection of the panels to the roof.
Criteria: Applicable codes: 2010 Residential Code of New York
2001 Wood Frame Construction Manual
Design roof load: 40 psf live(snow)load, 15 psf dead load, 55 psf total load
Design wind load: 110 mph,35 psf;Exposure Category`B'
My findings are as follows.
1. The new solar panels will imply an additional dead load of 3 psf. The existing roof structure
(2x6 roof rafters @ 16"o.c.,with 2x4 collar ties and 2x8 ridge,spans=+/- 15'-4"and+/- 13'-10")
is overspanned at and not sufficient to bear this additional load. In order to supplement the existing
structure we will sister new 2x6 rafters alongside each existing rafter at the roof planes receiving
new solar panels.
2. The solar panels are attached to the roof with the SolarMount-1 rack system by UNIRAC. The
rack system,roof connections and connection spacing are rated for 110 mph. This project
requires the larger Solar Mount I-2.5 beam(2.5"high)and spacing of flange foot connection to
roof at 48"o.c. maximum.Flange footing connections to the rail are not required to be staggered.
The flange foot connections to the roof are 5/16"diameter x 4"long lag bolts.
I therefore certify that this installation complies with the applicable codes and design loads
mentioned above and is acceptable for approval. Please let me know if you have any questions
on this information. Thanks!
