SUBJECT: Header, 657 Salem St, North Andover MA
Dear Mr. Rourke:
Gelinas Structural Engineering LLC (GSE) meet with Buddy Landers on site today to determine if the
existing three ply 11 7/8" LVL header spanning 12'-6" satisfies Code. You indicted this is the only issue the
Town has; as such we limited our scope to the LVL Header only. After site observations, measurements,
office analysis the following is GSE's opinion
Executive Summary:
1. Office analysis indicates the three ply 117/8" LVL is capable to support the loading form the 2nd
floor, see attached
2. Design basis for this is the IRC 2009 as amended by the Massachusetts Residential Code 8 t Edition
amendment, 40 psf Live Load floor loading
Please call with any questions.
Very Truly Yours,
Daniel L. Gelin,

or on the grounds or building appurtenant thereto shall not because of such employment be deemed to be an employer."
MGL chapter 152, §25C(6) also states that "every state or local licensing agency shall withhold the issuance or

Contractor Arbitration
The Home Improvement Contractor Law provides homeowners with the right to initiate an arbitration action (as an
alternative to court action) if they have a dispute with a contractor. The same right is not automatically afforded to a
contractor, however. The contractor would have to resolve any dispute he/she has with a homeowner in court unless
both parties agree to the optional clause provided below. This clause would give the contractor the same right to
arbitration as is afforded to the homeowner by the Home Improvement Contractor Law.
The contractor and the homeowner hereby mutually agree in advance that in the event the contractor has a dispute
concerning this contract, the contractor may submit the dispute to a private arbitration firm which has been approved by
the Secretary of the Executive Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation and the consumer shall be required
to submit to such arbitration as provided In Massachusetts General Laws apter 142 .
Homeowner's Signature on ctor's Signature
NOTICE: The signatures of the parties above apply only to the agreement of the parties to alternative dispute
resolution initiated by the contractor. The homeowner may initiate alternative dispute resolution even where this
section is not separately siened by the narties.
Homeowner's Rights
A homeowner's rights under the Home Improvement Contractor Law (MGL chapter 142A) and other consumer
protection laws (i.e. MGL chapter 93A) may not be waived in any way, even by agreement. However, homeowners
may be excluded from certain rights if the contractor they choose is not properly registered as prescribed by law.
Homeowners who secure their own building permits are automatically excluded from all Guaranty Fund provisions of
the Home Improvement Contractor Law. The contractor is responsible for completing the work as described, in a
timely and workmanlike manner. Homeowners may be entitled to other specific legal rights if the contractor
guarantees or provides an express warranty for workmanship or materials. In addition to guarantees or warranties
provided by the contractor, all goods sold in Massachusetts carry an implied warranty of merchantability and fitness for
a particular purpose. An enumeration of other matters on which the homeowner and contractor lawfully agree may be
added to the terms of the contract as long as they do not restrict a homeowner's basic consumer rights. If you have
questions about your consumer/homeowner rights, contact the Consumer Information Hotline (listed below).
Execution of Contract
The contract must be executed in duplicate and should not be signed until a copy of all exhibits and referenced
documents have been attached. Parties are also advised not to sign the document until all blank sections have been
filled in or marked as void, deleted, or not applicable. One original signed copy of the contract with attachments is to
be given to the owner and the other kept by the contractor. Any modification to the original contract must be in writing
and agreed to by both parties. Contracted work may not begin until both parties have received a fully executed copy of
the contract, and the three day rescission period has expired.
Accelerated Payments
A contractor may not demand payments in advance of the dates specified on the payment schedule in cases where the
homeowner deems him/herself to be financially insecure. However, in instances where a contractor deems him/herself
to be financially insecure, the contractor may require that the balance of funds not yet due be placed in a joint escrow
account as a prerequisite to continuing the contracted work. Withdrawal of funds from said account would require the
signatures of both parties.
