I <br /> walked some of the slab on grade looking up at the roof structure. The roof structure that I saw <br /> appeared to be in good condition and performing well. I also walked on top of the roof and the <br /> structure appeared to be performing well. I observed some instances of water ponding next to <br /> the existing skylights and along the edge of the building. <br /> It is highly recommended that slope modifications be made to eliminate water ponding on the <br /> existing roof before the new roof is installed. <br /> understand that the new roofing to be added weighs about 2.4 psf. Section 3404.3 of the <br /> International Building Code allows for a 5% increase in the design gravity load on an existing <br /> roof without modification to the original structural framing members. As only about 5% is being <br /> added, it is my opinion that installing the new roofing is allowed per current building codes. <br /> Should you require any additional information regarding this project, please contact me at <br /> (206) 973-5401 <br /> Sincerely, <br /> ENGINEERS NORTHW T, INC., P,S, <br /> /J <br /> Mike Pederslie ' <br /> Project Engineer �,i' N &� ' <br /> ' f � �I <br /> 840 <br /> RY: S AL,,, <br /> MP:bs s'ONALCTG <br /> ENW Project No-15000060 <br /> We get <br /> buildings <br /> built. <br /> 9725 Third Ave NE,Suite 207 •Seattle,WA 98115 <br /> 206.525.7560 • fax 206.522.6698 <br /> www.engineersnw.com <br />
