Vreeland Design Associates Re: Richard Gerstein, 160 North Maple Street, Florence, MA: Structural assessment of existing house roof to support the proposed PV solar panel array. I have investigated the existing roof framing in the area of the proposed PV solar panel installation. The original 1-3/4-story, 21'x 27' balloon framed house was constructed in 1873. 13 PV solar panels are to be installed on the south facing roof of the house. The house roof is framed with full dimension 2x5 rafters installed 21"-22"on-center, spanning 10'-2" with a 12/12 roof pitch. The south rafters are supported on a 2x4 wall located 3'7" in from the south wall reducing the span of the rafters. The top plate of the exterior wall is approximately 4' above the 2nd floor. 2x5 ceiling joists are attached to the side of the rafters 7'-9"above the floor helping to prevent the roof from spreading. The balloon framing of the house also helps to prevent the roof from spreading. The roofing is composite asphalt shingles. I have reviewed the mounting details for the proposed PV solar panel array. Based on my calculations and a solar panel unit weight of 46f lbs, with the attachment points of the solar panel array placed at a maximum of 44" on center and staggered to minimize the load to any one rafter, the existing house roof framing is adequate to support the proposed PV solar panel array and the snow and wind load requirements of the current 9th Edition of the MA State Building Code for the City of Northampton.
