Dear Mr.Ferrari:
Enclosed are the structural calculations for structural composite wood members to be
used in the single family residence at 100 Emerson Way as depicted in framing plans F-1. F-2 F-3
& F-4 dated 2/04/13 as drawn by Steve Ferrari.They are labeled as Beam 1-1A, Beam 1-1B,
Beam1-2, Beam 2-1, Beam 2-2, Flush Beam 2-3,Rim Joist & Hip. Note that the calculation for the
Rim Joist is the worst condition, namely over the large window in the first floor front wall, as this
member will be used for all rim conditions.Also enclosed is the design for the hip peak
connection.
Please call me if you have any questions regarding this project.
