It's a system of engineered components that can be assembled This manual provides(1)supporting documentation for into a wide variety of PV mounting structures.With building permit applications relating to Unirac's SolarMount SolarMount you'll be able to solve virtually any PV module Universal PV Module Mounting system,and(2)planning and mounting challenge. assembly instructions for SolarMount It's also a system of technical support:complete installation SolarMount products,when installed in accordance with and code compliance documentation,an on-line SolarMount this bulletin,will be structurally adequate and will meet Estimator,person-to-person customer service,and design the structural requirements of the IBC 2009,ASCE 7-05 assistance to help you solve the toughest challenges. and California Building Code 2010(collectively referred to This is why SolarMount is PV's most widely used mounting as"the Code").Unirac also provides a limited warranty on system. SolarMount products(page 26). QThe installer is solely responsible for: • Complying with all applicable local or national building codes, including any that may supersede this manual; • Ensuring that Unirac and other products are appropriate for the particular installation and the installation environment; • Ensuring that the roof, its rafters, connections, and other structural support members can support the array under all code level loading conditions (this total building assembly is referred to as the building structure); • Using only Unirac parts and installer-supplied parts as specified by Unirac (substitution of parts may void the warranty and invalidate the letters of certification in all Unirac publications); • Ensuring that lag screws have adequate pullout strength and shear capacities as installed; • Verifying the strength of any alternate mounting used in lieu of the lag screws; • Maintaining the waterproof integrity of the roof, including selection of appropriate flashing; • Ensuring safe installation of all electrical aspects of the PV array; • Ensuring correct and appropriate design parameters are used in determining the design loading used for design of the specific installation. Parameters, such as snow loading,wind speed, exposure and topographic factor should be confirmed with the local building official or a licensed professional engineer. N" 2 SolarMount Unirac Code-Compliant Installation Manual ;;-UNI RAC Part I. Procedure to Determine the Design Wind Load [1.1.] Using the Simplified Method -ASCE 7-05 The procedure to determine Design Wind Load is specified for more clarification on the use of Method I.Lower design by the American Society of Civil Engineers and referenced in wind loads may be obtained by applying Method II from ASCE the International Building Code 2009. For purposes of this 7-05.Consult with a licensed engineer if you want to use document,the values,equations and procedures used in this Method II procedures. document reference ASCE 7-05,Minimum Design Loads for The equation for determining the Design Wind Load for Buildings and Other Structures. Please refer to ASCE 7-05 if components and cladding is: you have any questions about the definitions or procedures presented in this manual.Unirac uses Method 1,the Simplified Method,for calculating the Design Wind Load for pnec(p s f)=AKzd pnet3o pressures on components and cladding in this document. pnet(Psf)=Design Wind Load The method described in this document is valid for flush,no tilt,SolarMount Series applications on either roofs or walls. A=adjustment factor for building height and exposure category Flush is defined as panels parallel to the surface(or with no more than 3"difference between ends of assembly)with no Kzt= Topographic Factor at mean roof height,h(ft) more than 10"space between the roof surface,and the bottom 1=Importance Factor of the PV panels. This method is not approved for open structure calculations. pnet3o(psf)=net design wind pressure for Exposure B,at height= Applications of these procedures is subject to the following 30 feet,I=1.0 ASCE 7-05 limitations: j 1.The building height must be less than 60 feet,h<60. See note for determining h in the next section. For installations You will also need to know the following information: on structures greater than 60 feet,contact your local Unirac Distributor. Basic Wind Speed=V(mph),the largest 3 second gust of wind in 2.The building must be enclosed,not an open or partially the last SO years. enclosed structure,for example a carport. h(ft)=total roof height for flat roof buildings or mean roof height 3.The building is regular shaped with no unusual geometrical for pitched roof buildings irregularity in spatial form,for example a geodesic dome.

Installing Splices:If your installation uses SolarMount splice bars,attach a the rails together(Fig.13)before mounting the rails to the footings. Use splice bars only with flush installations or those that use low-profile tilt legs. Although structural,the joint is not as strong as the rail itself.A rail should always be supported by more than one footing on both sides of the splice.(Reference installation manual 908,Splices/Expansion Joints.) Figure 13.Splice bars slide into the footing bolt slots of SolarMount rail sections. Mounting Rails on Footings:Rails may be attached to either of two mounting holes in the L-feet(Fig.14). Mount in the lower hole for a low profile,more aesthetically pleasing installation. Mount in the upper hole for a higher profile,which will maximize airflow under the modules. This will cool them more and may enhance performance in hotter climates. f 3 Clamping Slide the /e-inch mounting bolts into the footing bolt slots.

President IIS September 5, 2013 North Andover Building Department North Andover, MA Re: Solar Electric Panels Roof Structural Framing Support To Whom It May Concern: I hereby certify that I am a Licensed Professional Engineer in the State of Massachusetts. Please note the following conclusions regarding framing structure, roof loading,and photovoltaic system size and proposed site location of installation: 1. Existing roof framing: Conventional framing 2x8 @ 16" o.c.11%5"span (horizontal rafter projection). This existing structure is definitely capable to support all of the loads that are indicated below for this photovoltaic project. 2. Roof Loading • 4.33 psf dead load (modules plus all mounting hardware) • 35 psf snow live load (50 psf ground snow live load reference) • Exposure Category B, 115 mph wind uplift live load of 19.6 psf(wind resistance) 3. Solar Photovoltaic System size: 3.75 kw and 15 Trina 250 Watt Modules 4. Address of proposed installation: Residence of Chris Spychalski, 191 Barker Street, North Andover, MA 01845 This installation design will be in general conformance to the manufacturer's specifications, and is in compliance with all applicable laws,codes, and ordinances ands specifically, International P Y� Residential Code/ IRC 2009 2011 NEC and 2009 ICC Ener Code. The spacing of the UniRac 9Y p 9 mounting brackets ANCHORAGE/FASTENING of the brackets is at a maximum of 64" o.c. along the rail and using 5/16"x 3 %" length lag bolts, min. 2 per rafter& min. 2" penetration,which is adequate to resist all 115 mph wind live loads including wind shear,to mount rails to rafters while alternating mounting feet between adjacent rafters between rail rows for better distribution of roof load. Rails may be attached to either of two mounting holes in the L-feet. Mounting in the lower hole for a low profile, more aesthetically pleasing installation or mount in the upper hole for a higher profile to maximize airflow under the modules to cool them more. Slide the"-inch mounting bolts into the footing bolt slots. The rails will be attached to the footings with the flange nuts.
