The 2009 International Residential Code and the car"Edition. iassachusetts Stale Amendments
specify a ground snow load of 40 psf for Florence Massachusetts. The roof applied snow loading shall
be as specified in Equations 73-1 and Equations 7.4-1 as found in the ASCE7-10 Minimum Design
Loads for Buildings and Other Structures.
Pf =.7 * Ce * Ct * I * Pg Eg7.3-1
Ps=Pf* Cs Eq 7.4-1
Ce=Terrain Category`B"/Partly Exposed= 1.0
Ct= 1.1
I = 1.0
Pg=40 psf
Cs = 1.0(Rough surface, 5!12 pitch)
The roof applied loads are as follows:
Unifoml Sloped Roof Snow Load, Ps: 31 psf(minimum), Use 35 psf.
Assumed new Panel and array Dead Load: 4.0 psf
Existing roof dead load: 11.0 psf
Total roof applies uniform load 50 psf.
The unbalanced or drift snow load is Pg * 1=40 psf
Total unbalanced drift load, including dead load is 55 psf.—Controls top chord design.
For my roof structure analysis. I have used the gravity loads described above and I have assumed
that the existing roof structure is framed from Spruce Pine Fir#1/#2 grade lumber. I have modeled the
existing trusses to determine the capacity of the structural members beneath the proposed new array.
Under the loading conditions described above. I have determined that the existing trusses do have the
required capacity to support the new photo-voltaic array and code prescribed snow loads as long as the
new array is supported as indicated on the attached sketch"2"which is a support layout plan.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions.
Respectfully,

Re: Roof analysis for new photo-voltaic array

Carl:
You have requested that I observe the residential structure located at the address indicated above.
You have explained to me that the owners of this residential structure intend to install a new photo-
voltaic array on a portion of the existing roof. You have requested that I determine if the existing roof
structure has the required capacity to support code prescribed snow loads, existing roof dead loads and
an additional photo voltaic array.
On April 10th, 2014, you provided me with some general information regarding the proposed
new photo-voltaic array layout. You have also provided me with several pictures of the existing roof
structure and an elevation of the typical existing roof trusses.
This existing structure is a single family residence and conforms to type 5-13 constriction (un-
protected wood residential framing)as specified by the 2009 International Builclinq Code. You
explained that the proposed new photovoltaic-array would consist of 12 photo voltaic panels located at
the gable roof south face of the structure.
The existing roof structure beneath the proposed new photo-voltaic array consists of/z"thick
plywood roof sheathing on field build trusses that are spaced at 16 inches on center. See the attached"I"
a truss elevation for existing truss member sizes.
