The following calculations are for the structural engineering design of the photovoltaic panels and
are valid only for the structural info referenced in the stamped plan set. The verification of such info
is the responsibility of others. After review, I certify that the roof structure has sufficient structural
capacity for the applied PV loads. All PV mounting equipment shall be designed and installed per
manufacturer's approved installation specifications.

The increase in weight as a result of the solar system is less than 10% of the existing structure and therefore no furtherseismic analysis is required.
Limits of Scope of Work and Liability
Existing structure is assumed to have been designed and constructed following appropriate codes at
time of erection, and assumed to have appropriate permits. The calculations produced are only for
the roof framing supporting the proposed PV installation referenced in the stamped planset and were
completed according to generally recognized structural analysis standards and procedures,
professional engineering and design experience, opinions and judgements. Existing deficiencies
which are unknown or were not observable during time of inspection are not included in this scope of
work. All PV modules, racking, and mounting equipment shall be designed and installed per
manufacturer's approved installation specifications. The Engineer of Record and Engineerinc
assume no responsibility for misuse or improper installation. This analysis is not stamped for water
leakage. Framing was determined based on information in provided plans and/or photos, along with
engineering judgement. Prior to commencement of work, the contractor shall verify the framing sizes,
spacings, and spans noted in the stamped plans, calculations, and cert letter (where applicable) and
notify the Engineer of Record of any discrepancies prior to starting construction. Contractor shall also
verify that there is no damaged framing that was not addressed in stamped plans, calculations, and
cert letter (where applicable) and notify the Engineer of Record of any concerns prior to starting
construction. Prior to the commencement of work, the contractor shall verify the existing roof and
framing conditions. Notify Engineerinc and the engineer of record of any Discrepancies prior to
starting construction. Prior to the commencement of work, the contractor shall inspect framing for
any damage such as water damage, cracked framing, etc. and notify the E.O.R. if any issues are
found.These plans/calculations are stamped for structural code compliance of the roof framing
supporting the proposed PV installation reference only. These plans/calculations are not stamped for
water leakage. PV modules, racking, and attachment components must follow manufacturer
guidelines and requirements.
