Vreeland Design Associates Re: Dr. David Alpem, 43 Platinum Circle, Florence, MA: Structural assessment of existing house roof to support proposed solar array. On 8/19/16 we conducted a site visit to investigate the existing roof framing in the area of the proposed PV solar panel installation.The original 28'x30' 2-story house with attached garage was constructed in 1986. 30 solar panels are to be installed on the southeast facing roof of the house. The house rafters are 2x8 installed at 16"on-center, spanning 13'-6",with a roof pitch of 5.5/12. 2x6 ceiling joists, installed at 16"on-center are attached to the bottom of the rafters at the top of the exterior walls and prevent the roof from spreading. The roofing is asphalt shingles. I have reviewed the mounting details for the proposed array.Based on my calculations and a PV solar panel unit weight of 42+ lbs, with the attachment points of the array placed at a maximum of 4' on center and staggered to minimize the load to any one rafter,the existing roof framing is adequate to support the proposed PV solar array and the snow and wind load requirements of the current MA State Building Code. Please contact me if you have any questions or need additional information.
