29-305 (7) 1WSNmGtaakusa oF.coF�stenSolar Y 4.0 Additional Notes 4.1 Most solar panels do not generate electricity along their outer edges.This means the shade length listed in the charts is actually less by the amount of space on the panel edges not generating electricity. LM 4.2 The Solar SnowMax System was designed to cause minimal shading during the peak power production hours.The bottom edge leave edge)of the lowest solar panels is all that will be shaded by this system. c �a d NY m Tp� NYO N 2O aaTO "n¢ S° O nQ vim 8zt °`o LL J F U W 0 O IL IL a o 7 N m r m w C 1.

In addition,it is important that the leveling feet support locations be staggered between adjacent panels so that no single rafter supports more load than under the existing conditions. Wind Loading Based on our calculations,the net wind loads imposed on the roof framing with an attachment spacing as indicated above will be less than the current loading on the roof framing. In addition,provided that the leveling feet are attached to the roof framing members in a typical staggered fashion,the overall wind loading imposed on the structure and the individual framing members will not be impacted to any great extent. If you have any questions regarding this matter,please feel free to contact my office at 609-489-5511. We appreciate the opportunity to assist you with this evaluation.

From a practical standpoint,the International Residential Code allows up to 2 roof coverings on a residential dwelling. Each layer of roofing imposes a net load of about 2.5 to 3.0 PSF on the roof.From this perspective, since the existing roof has only a single layer of shingles, a second layer is allowed to be added by the code without analysis.This 2nd layer of shingles essentially weighs the same as the proposed solar panels. ➢ Materials such as metal roofs or solar panels are considered slippery surfaces. Since the solar panels are mounted slightly above the roof line,it would be conservative to consider a thermal factor Ct of 1.1,treating the panel surface as a cold roof rather than a warm roof.Based on the roof slope and considering it as a slippery surface,the snow load is reduced by 12%compared with the snow loading directly on the existing shingled roof surface. This reduction equates to 3.36 PSF which essentially offsets the weight of the solar panels. Gravity Loading: Roof#1 —adequate to support the proposed solar panels PAGE 1 mans' STRUCTURAL lNGINlERS p December 08,2015 Mr.Wissem Taboubi NRG Solar 89F Washington Ave Natick, MA 01760 RE: Lafleche Residence Solar Installation 398 Acrebrook Florence,MA 01060 Structural Assessment of Roof Framing MPP Project No: 15-3839 Dear Mr.Taboubi: Pursuant to your request,MPP Engineers has performed a limited structural evaluation of the roof framing at the above referenced site to determine if the roof has adequate capacity to support the proposed solar panels. Our analysis was based on the framing information and configurations provided by NRG Solar. It is our understanding that the structural components of the existing roof framing are in good condition. It is further understood that all existing connections between the various roof framing members are adequate to resist the current loading conditions and behave in the manner that a typical truss system system is intended to behave prior to installation of the solar panels. Results Roof#1 —adequate to support the proposed solar panels Structural Data and Code Information Our analysis was performed in accordance with the requirements of the 780 CMR 51.00: Massachusetts Residential Code which has adopted the 2009 International Residential Code with Massachusetts amendments.Per Table R301.2(1),the ground snow load to be used for each town is in accordance with Table R301.2(5). Similarly,the wind speed for each town is in accordance with Table R301.2(4).The roof framing was analyzed in accordance with Section R104.11 of the of the 2009 International Residential Code which allows for alternate approved design such as using the ASCE 7 code for determining actual snow loads on roofs (e.g. deriving flat or sloped roof snow loads from the specified ground snow load referenced in Table R301.2(5)). Wood members were analyzed and designed in accordance with the NDS 2005. The roof area for the solar panels of this residence is framed in a gable configuration utilizing pre- engineered metal plate connected wood trusses.The existing roof structure is in good condition and is assumed to have one layer of asphalt shingles.
