Floor joists span east and west with a center line beam and column system in the existing <br /> structure. The east addition spans from existing foundation wall to new 12" foundation <br /> wall with east and west spanning joists. The new west addition will be similar <br /> construction. <br /> STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS <br /> 8. A Structurai Engineering analysis has been completed by J. H. Dahlmeier Engineering, <br /> Inc. to determine loads to the existing 8"concrete masonry foundation walls. <br /> 9. Consistent with the Minnesota State Building Code, the capacity of the 8" masonry <br /> exceeds the design load. <br /> 10. An opening to the east addition has been cut through the block and broken blocks exists <br /> at the jambs of this opening. Tuckpointing and repair of this is required as well as any <br /> other loose blocks in the foundation. <br /> PROFESSIONAL OPINION <br /> ll. It is my professional opinion that based on a review of the proposed addition <br /> construction documents, an on-site review and structural analysis, the existing 8" <br /> concrete block masonry is adequate to support the loads in accordance with the <br /> Minnesota State Building Code. <br /> If you have any questions,please contact me. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> J.
