LONGITUDE <br /> ONE TWENTY° <br /> ENGINEERING&DESIGN <br /> CONSTRUCTION SUPPORT SERVICES <br /> Date: 29th day of March, 2018 <br /> Project Name: Layton Residence Remodel Project Number: S180329 <br /> Project Location: 1101 E Marine View Drive, Everett, WA 98201 <br /> Client's Name: The Layton's <br /> Client's Address: 1101 E Marine View Drive, Everett, WA 98201 <br /> To whom it may concern, <br /> We were informed of a condition where the floor joists above the basement at the residence had been notched at <br /> the support, reducing the depth of the solid sawn members over the support by approximately 2"as we were <br /> asked to review the condition to assure that the structural integrity is adequate per the loading demand, design <br /> standards,and per the currently adopted building codes and associated material codes. <br /> • The member size is 2x8 HF#2,joists located at 16"o.c,and seven members have been compromised <br /> at the support. <br /> • We have been informed the flooring products and floor assembly is typical,as we assumed 40 psf LL, <br /> and 12 psf DL for our applied design loads. <br /> • The members experience uniformed loads,and no bearing walls above are loading up the floor. <br /> • The members clear-span<12' (inside-to-inside). <br /> • See attached calculation showing the member properties,and associated strength values pointing to <br /> the conditional demand versus capacity. <br /> Results: Per the attached calculation,the existing seven members are still sufficient with the 2"cut based on the <br /> shear capacity versus demand(governing in the region)and determined based on a linear assessment of the <br /> reduced depth to the total. However,to assure that the notched section does not lead to any cracking <br /> compromising the section past the minimum requirements, we recommend to attach a 1'-6" long 2x6 member <br /> sistered to the side of the cut 2x8 over the support and attach with (3)rows of 0.131x3" nails @ 4",full length,staggered. <br /> Sincerely, • 1�,*• d /U <br /> M5ns R.Thurfjell, P.E <br /> r rte;! t. # <br /> L120 Engineering& Design (L120) - ! � 3 <br />
