RE: Final Inspection Corrections
36'x56'x12' Pole Structure
Seel 1, T07, R93
Rifle, CO
Job #7318.L01
Mr. Sharp,
We have received the corrections from the Final Inspection performed by the Building
Department. The Inspector has identified items we need to address.
The Inspector identified the roof trusses at 6' o.c. This project incorporates 12'-0" maximum bay
spacing, meaning the trusses are spaced at 6'-0" o.c. The truss calculations state the spacing is
6'-0", and the trusses as designed are adequate and require no modifications.
Additionally, we design our pole structures without diagonal bracing at the gable -end trusses or
corners of the buildings. No diagonal bracing is required.
The gable -end truss has been "dropped" to allow for roof overhangs. This has constituted the
attachment of a ledger for the ceiling framing. We have reviewed the connection of the ledger
to the gable -end truss and have determined the (2)1/4" sds screws to be acceptable.
Additionally, the Contractor has furred out the gable -end truss for the ceiling ledger connection.
Again, in our review, the attachments and construction provided are acceptable.
No additional wiry will be required.
Please call if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Brian Waddell, PE, LEED AP
