Solar Array Installation
To Whom It May Concern:
Per your request, we have reviewed the existing structure at the above referenced site. The purpose of our review was to
determine the adequacy of the existing structure to support the proposed installation of solar panels on the roof as shown on
the panel layout plan. Based upon our review, we conclude that the existing structure is adequate to support the proposed
solar panel installation.
Design Parameters
Code:Massachusetts State Building Code(780 CMR Chapter 16,9th Edition(2015 IBC))
Risk Category:II
Design wind speed: 117 mph (3-sec gust)per ASCE 7-10
Wind exposure category:C
Ground snow load: 40 psf
Connection to Roof
Mounting connection:(1)5/16'lag screw w/min.2.5"embedment into framing at max.48"O.C.along rails
Conclusions
Based upon our review,we conclude that the existing structure is adequate to support the proposed solar panel installation.
The weight of the solar array is 3 psf or less. In the area of the solar array, other live loads will not be present or will be
greatly reduced (Massachusetts State Building Code (780 CMR Chapter 16, 9th Edition (2015 IBC)), Section 1607.12.5).
The glass surface of the solar panels allows for a lower slope factor per ASCE 7,resulting in reduced design snow load on
the panels. The gravity bads in the area of the solar army are decreased; thus, the stresses of the structural elements are
decreased. Therefore, the requirements of Section 807.4 of the 2015 IEBC as referenced in 780 CMR Chapter 34, 9th
Edition are met and the structure is permitted to remain unaltered.

The solar array will be flush-mounted (no more than 6' above the roof surface) and parallel to the roof surface. Thus, we
conclude that any additional wind loading on the structure related to the addition of the proposed solar array is negligible.
The attached calculations verify the capacity of the connections of the solar array to the existing roof against wind (uplift),
the governing load case. Regarding seismic loads, we conclude that any additional forces will be small. With an assumed
roof dead load of 10 psf, solar may dead load of 3 psf,and affected roof area of 33%(maximum),the additional dead load
(and consequential seismic load)will be 9.5%. This calculation conservatively neglects wall weight. Because the increase in
lateral forces is less than 10%,this addition meets the requirements of the exception in Section 807.5 of the 2015 IEBC as
referenced in 780 CMR Chapter 34,9th Edition.Thus the existing structure is permitted to remain unaltered.
Limitations
Installation of the solar panels must be performed in accordance with manufacturer recommendations. All work performed
must be in accordance with accepted industry-wide methods and applicable safety standards. The contractor shall notify
Vector Structural Engineering, LLC should any damage,deterioration or discrepancies between the as-built condition of the
structure and the condition described in this letter be found. Connections to existing roof framing must be staggered,except
at array ends,so as not to overload any existing structural member. The use of solar panel support span tables provided by
others is allowed only where the building type,site conditions,site-specific design parameters,and solar panel configuration
match the description of the span tables.The design of the solar panel racking(mounts,rails,etc.),and electrical engineering
is the responsibility of others. Waterproofing around the roof penetrations is the responsibility of others. Vector Structural
Engineering assumes no responsibility for improper installation of the solar may.

The gravity loads in the area of the solar array are decreased;thus,the stresses of the
structural elements are decreased.Therefore,the requirements of Section 807.4 of the
2015 IEBC as referenced in 780 CMR Chapter 34,9th Edition are met and the structure
is permitted to remain unaltered.
