STRUCTURAL CERTIFICATION REPORT
Roof-mounted Solar Panels
April 06, 2023
To: Altair Solar Re: Brad Stipe
12 Mauchly, Ste B 29571 Monarch Dr
Irvine, CA 92618 San Juan Capistrano, CA 92675
Altair Solar proposes to install new roof-mounted solar panels at this residence and asked Right Angle Engineering to
review the existing structure for suitability. This letter summarizes the methods that were used to survey, evaluate, and
certify the existing roof framing and the attachment of the new solar panels to it.
STRUCTURAL DESIGN
Building Code:California Residential Code 2022
Design Standards:ASCE 7-16
Snow:Ground: pg= 0.0 psf | Flat Roof: pf= 0.0 psf | Sloped Roof: ps= 0.0 psf
Wind:Ultimate Wind Speed = 110.0 mph | Exposure = C
Seismic:Risk Category = 2 | Seismic Design Category = A | Site Class = D
STRUCTURE
Field Technicians from Altair Solar visited the site and observed the existing structure :
Array Name Panel Quantity Roof Framing Material Pitch
Array 1 13 2x8 Rafter | 12" o.c.Spanish Tile 14°
Array 2 6 2x8 Rafter | 12" o.c.Spanish Tile 14°
Array 3 6 2x8 Rafter | 12" o.c.Spanish Tile 14°
ANCHORAGE
The solar panel anchorage shall be installed according to the manufacturer's most current installation manual.
Anchorage shall be staggered to distribute the load evenly to adjacent roof members. The solar panels should be
mounted flush to the roof surface.

Installation Instructions
Solar panels and the equipment shall be installed per the manufacturer's installation specifications. Improper installation
will void this certification. Deviations from the approved structural plans (including equipment substitutions) are not
allowed without written approval from Right Angle Engineering. Prior to installation, the installer should:
•Confirm that the existing structure matches the information provided in the structural survey, the approved
installation plans and this certification.
•Identify discrepancies between this certification and the approved installation plans. If found, then this
certification shall govern.
•Identify structural elements that are dangerous (cracked, broken, excessive sag, signs of overstress, rot,decay,
fire, water). If found, installation shall cease until those elements are adequately abated and made to comply with
the referenced building code.
•Verify that both the existing structure and the solar addition has been permitted through the AHJ.

STRUCTURAL CERTIFICATION
I certify the addition of solar panels on the roof of this structure does not cause the structure to become unsafe or make
it generally less compliant with the life-safety requirements of the referenced building code. Based on the evaluation
methods described below, for the loads that exist at this site, the existing framing will safely support the new solar
panels if they are installed and attached correctly. Electrical design is not included in this certification.
