Re: Engineer Statement for Sidoti Residence, 56 W Parsons Ln., Florence, MA
- Solar Roof Mount Installation
I have verified the adequacy and structural integrity of the existing Main Roof 1 (one
layer shingles): 2" x 8" rafters at 24" c-c., having roof slope distance approx. 15'-5" with
rafter span 13'-0", pitch 24 deg.; for mounting of solar panels and their installation will
satisfy the structural roof framing design-loading requirements of the Massachusetts
building code—780 CMR Residential Code 8th Ed.
For the installation of the solar mounting, the Unirac Solarmount rails will be anchored to
the rafters with L-foot supports with Eco-Fasten Green-Fasten and CP-SQ Bracket
located on the center of the rafters and will be securely fastened to the rafters at 48" max.
sp. with 5/16"x 3 1/2" SS lag bolts. The mounting system has been designed for wind
speed criteria of 90 mph Exp. B and ground snow criteria of 40 psf. All attachments are
staggered amongst framing members.
The Photovoltaic system and the mounting assemblies will comply with the applicable
sections of the Residential Code and loading requirements of roof-mounted collectors.
Thereby, I endorse the solar panel installation and certify this design to be structurally
adequate.
Sincerely,
C1
