This Letter is for the existing roof framing which supports the new PV modules as well as the attachment of
the PV system to existing roof framing. From the field observation report, the roof is made of Composition
shingle roofing over roof plywood supported by 2X6 Rafters at 24 inches . The slope of the roof was
approximated to be 18 degrees and having an allowable maximum beam span of 8 feet between supports.
After review of the field observation data and based on our structural capacity calculation, the existing roof
framing has been determined to be adequate to support the imposed loads without structural upgrades.
Capacity calculations were done in accordance with applicable building codes.

1. Pv seismic dead weight is negligible to result in significant seismic uplif, therefore the wind uplift
governs
2. Embedment is measured from the top of the framing member to the tapered tip of a lag screw.
Embedment in sheading or other material does not count.

The increase in seismic Dead weight as a result of the solar system is less than 10% of the existing structure and
therefore no further seismic analysis is required.
Limits of Scope of Work and Liability
We have based our structural capacity determination on information in pictures and a drawing set titled PV plans -
Halley, Lynne. The analysis was according to applicable building codes, professional engineering and design
experience, opinions and judgments. The calculations produced for this dwelling's assessment are only for the
proposed solar panel installation referenced in the stamped plan set and were made according to generally
recognized structural analysis standards and procedures.
