All joist hangers should be reviewed for proper nailing, and appropriate nails or manufacturer-approved screws <br /> should be installed in place of any missing, loose, or damaged nails. Connectors should be hot-dipped galvanized or <br /> otherwise approved for contact with the treated lumber and exterior exposure. <br /> 2. The top of each post should be closely assessed for any existing connection (something more substantial than a few <br /> toe-nails). Where only toenails are present, add either a pre-manufactured post cap (Simpson ACE6 or similar) or <br /> four 6"long SDWS screws(fully threaded)from post to beam,embedded at least 2" into each member. <br /> 3. Add new posts and footings as indicated on the attached diagram,which will shorten the rim beam spans. <br /> 4. Add a supporting beam and three posts as indicated on the attached diagram.This will serve to provide more direct <br /> support of the chimney framing, including the adhered veneer, and relieve adjoining framing from bearing this <br /> additional load. <br /> 5. The minor gap should be re-sealed to re-weatherproof the joint. <br /> 6. See recommendation 1. <br /> 7. The window headers will be relieved by added beam and posts(recommendation 4). <br /> If you have any questions,please do not hesitate to contact me. <br /> Sincerely, 1 hcrcby ccrtify that this plan, spccification or rcport was <br /> MATTSON MACDONALD YOUNG, INC. prcparcd by mc or undcr my dircct supervision and that I am a <br /> duly liccnscd Profcssional Enginccr undcr thc laws of thc Statc <br /> � '�---... 4 <br /> of M inncsota. <br /> � �` <br /> �d.. „_....
