Re: Engineer Statement for Clopton-Levine Residence, 1157 Florence Rd., Florence, MA
- Solar Roof Mount Installation
I have verified the adequacy and structural integrity of the existing Main Roof 1 (one
layer shingles): true cut 2" x 4"rafters at 24" c-c., having roof slope distance 24'-9",
pitch 31 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 to fastened
unistrut channel with L-foot supports anchored and with Eco-Fasten Green-Fasten and
CP-SQ Bracket located at 48" sp. on the center of the rafters and will be securely
fastened to the rafters at with 5/16"x 4" SS lag bolts as shown on drawing A1.0. The
mounting system has been designed for wind speed criteria of 90 mph Exp. B and ground
snow criteria of 40 psf.
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,
