Our analysis was limited to the design capacity of the roof attachment for wind uplift. Our analysis assumed a residential wood framed roof structure with a roof slope between 0 and 45 degrees, located in ASCE 7-OS exposure category B(typical urban/suburban area with numerous obstructions the size of single family homes or larger extending at least 1500' in all directions) with a►nean coof height of 30 feet or less. Our analysis also assumed the panels would not be mounted at a roof overhang, and that the lag screws attach to primary structural members and not to added mounting blocks or sleepers. Based on these criteria, the maximum wind uplift loading is 36.8 psf, and the net uplift pressure taking the weight of the panels (2.5 ps� into account is 35.3 psf.. Based on the information provided by the installer, we reviewed the design capacity of 3/8" diameter, 3" long lag screws for the roof attachment. The lag screw review assumed a minimum 2x4 nominal (1.5" x 3.5" actual) roof rafter, and a maximum 1" of roofing material above the roof cafters providing 2° lag screw penetration into the wood member. The lag screws are also assumed to be installed near the center of the roof rafters at a minimum of 9/16" distance from the edge of the member. The lag screw design is dependent on the type of wood used for the roof framing. Using the lowest published values by the 2005 National Design Specification (NDS) for Wood Construction, the calculated withdrawal capacity is 298 pounds for the lag screw described above in wood members with a specific gravity of 0.31. Using a more common lower-bound wood value for Spruce Pine Fir (specific gravity of 0.42), the calculated withdrawal capacity of the lag screw is 470 pounds. Higher withdrawal design capacity could be obtained for other species such as Douglas Fir or Southern Pine. BKBM ENGINEERS An Equal Opportunity Employer Ms. Rebecca Lundberg August 4, 2008 Page 2 The allowable spacing of the attachments (rail span) for wind uplift can be calculated by dividing the withdrawal capacity above by the net uplift pressure (35.3 psf� and dividing that result by one-half of the module width perpendicular to the rails. The following formula summarizes the calculation: L= 2W/BP L= Rail Span for Wind Uplift (ft) W= Lag Screw Calculated Withdrawal Capacity (lbs) B= Module Width Perpendicular to the Rails (ft) P= Net Uplift Design Pressure (psf) For example if the module width is 3 feet, the allowable attachment spacing far wind uplift with Spruce Pine Fir wood is (2*470)/(3*35.3) = 89 feet. For wood with specific gravity of 0.31, the allowable attachment spacing is 5.6 feet. The above calculation makes no assessment of the structural design capacity of the primary structural wood framing to support either the wind uplift loads or the roof gravity loads (including snow) imposed by the photovoltaic panel attachment to individual roof rafters, or for the added roof load imposed by the weight of the modules. The module layout will modify the manner in which the roof framing is loaded, and the layout of the support brackets must take this into consideration in addition to the above wind uplift design. This report does not provide any warranty, either expressed or implied, for any portion of the existing structure to which the modules are installed. If you have any questions, please contact me.

They are also used for most ground mount installations. To ensure that the L-feet will be easily accessible during flush installation: • Use the PV module mounting holes nearest the ends of the modules. Situate the rails so that footing bolt slots face outward. The single slotted square side of the L-foot must always lie against the roof with the double-slotted side perpendicular to the roof. Foot spacing (along the same rail) and rail overhang depend on design wind loads. Install half the L-feet: • If rails are perpendicular to rafters (Fig. 23), install the feet closest to the lower edge of the roof. • If rails are parallel to rafters (Fig 24), install the feet for one of the rails, but not both. For the L-feet being installed now, drill pilot holes through the roofing into the center of the rafter at each lag screw hole location. Squirt sealant into the hole and onto the shafts of the lag screws. Seal the underside of the L-feet with a sealant. Securely fasten the L-feet to the building structure with the lag screws. Ensure that the L-feet face as shown in Figure 23 or Figure 24. Hold the rest of the L-feet and fasteners aside until the panels are ready for the installation. fI I! --i� --� ii-- � i Install Second � � I I � i i i•i i � �� SalarMouiit Ratls i i� n ii n �� i ii � i� Instal First II �E --� ---��--- L— - ii iF ii i€ [.trwar � I I� _„�.I I rObf �'"�"�' � ,��a Rafters Fi,gure 23.

Use Figure 8 or 9 below to locate and mark the position of the L-feet lag screw holes within the installation area. If multiple rows are to be installed adjacent to one another, it is not likely that each row will be centered above the rafters.

Align the edges of the modules and snug them together (Fig. 21, page22). Trim the rails to the total width of the modules to be mounted. Place a rail adjacent to the outer mounting holes. Orient the footing bolt slot outward. Place a clip slot adjacent to the mounting holes, following the arrangement you selected earlier. Assemble the clips, mounting bolts, and flange nuts. Torque the flange nuts to 15-foot-pounds. Wire the modules as needed. For safety reasons, module wiring should not be performed on a roof. For a neat installation, fasten cable clamps to rails with self-tapping screws. [3.3.4] Installing the module-rail assembly Bring the module-rail assembly to the installation site. Keep rail slots free of debris that might cause bolts to bind in the slots. Consider the weight of a fully assembled panel. UniRac rec- ommends safety lines whenever lifting one to a roof. Align the panel with the previously installed L-feet. Slide 3/8 inch L-foot mounting bolts onto the rail and align them with the L-feet mounting holes. Attach the panel to the L-feet and finger tighten the flange nuts. Rails may be attached to either of two mounting holes in the footings (Fig. 25). • Mount in the lower hole for a low, more aethetically pleasing installation. • Or mount in the upper hole to maximize a cooling airflow under the modules. This may enhance perfor- mance in hotter climates. Adjust the position of the panel as needed to fit the installa- tion area. Slide the remaining L-feet bolts onto the other rail, attach L-feet, and finger tighten with flange nuts. Align L-feet with mounting holes previously drilled into the roof. Install lag bolts into remaining L-feet as described in "Laying out and installing L-feet" above. Torque all footing flange nuts to 30 pounds. Verify that all lag bolts are securely fastened. vege 24 f �' 9. �� #, � �� . . ;�� a w.� �•• . . - : . •• a �' � e �, �.� `�`. Figure 25.
