re: Structural Analysis of project 1155 Fall River Ct, Estes Park, CO 80517
Dear Sir or Madam,
We have evaluated the solar racking and connections to the roof for the photovoltaic array to be installed using
the engineering design factors below.
ultimate wind speed V = 175 mph
wind exposure category = B
roof snow load = 70 psf
The PV system shall be flush mounted with no overhang. Attachments to the roof are to be spaced no more than
4’ O.C. Using the assumed engineering loads, we have determined that the design strength of all connections in
the solar racking system will be sufficient for this application.
The structural supporting members for the roof are 2x4” trusses 24” O.C. The roof framing has been determined
to be adequate for the required loads.
We do not assume responsibility for any construction flaws that currently exist or caused by other work trades.
Sincerely,
Anthony P. Boniface, PE
