No: 15058 <br /> Subject: Rafter Reinforcing <br /> Dear Dan: <br /> As requested,we designed new structural reinforcements for the above referenced project. We have <br /> designed the new members using a roof dead load of 10 psf and a roof snow load of 35 psf in accordance <br /> with the Minnesota State Building Code. Our work only includes designing the new reinforcements as shown <br />� at the above reference project and is based on photos and descriptions provided by you. <br /> Attached is a detail sheet showing the new members and connections. All framing shall be shored and <br /> temporarily braced as required by the contractor and all minimum nailing shall be in accordance with IRC <br /> Table R602.3(1). Lumber shall be minimum #2 SPF. Our calculations assume all lumber is of good quality <br /> and does noi have large splits and checks and shall be visually inspected by the contractor at the time of <br /> construction. <br /> The existing framing members are assumed to be in good condition and performing adequately. The existing <br /> footings and foundations have been assumed to be typical spread footings on good soils that are assumed to <br /> be performing adequately. The contractor shall also verify the condition of structural members affected by <br /> the remodeling to verify absence of splits and checks. <br />
