Wind gener- ally produces the maximum load factor affecting an installation. However, verify that other local condi- tions, such as snow loads and earthquake effects, do not exceed the wind loads. If any loading type does exceed wind loads, give precedence to that factor and consult a local professional engineer or your local building authority. · The roof on which the SunFrame will be installed must be capable of withstanding the design dead load and design live load per footing, listed in Table 2 on pages 74L 1. Determine basic wind speed at your installation site. For the United States, The Uniform Building Gode (1997) sup- plies wind speeds in its chart, "Minimum Basic Wind Speeds in Miles per Hour," reproduced on page 5 on this manual. The International Building Gode (2003) includes a similar chart, also reproduced on page 5. If you need clarifications or further assistance or if your instal- lation is outside the United States, consult a local profassionai engineer or your local building authority. 2. Determine exposure category of your installation site. The Uniform Building Code* defines wind exposure categories as follows: mxposuv, z B has terrain with buildings, forests or surface irregularities, covering at least 20 percent of the ground level area extending 1 mile (1.61 km) or more from the site. ~osro~ c has terrain that is flat and generally open extending V~ mile (0.81 km) or more from the site in any quadrant. a~a'OSt~Rg D represents the most severe exposure in areas with basic wind speeds of 80 miles per hour (mph) (129 kin/h) or greater and has terrain that is flat and unobstructed facing large bodies of water over 1 mile (1.61 km) in width relative to any quadrant of the build- ing site. Exposure D extends inland from the shoreline 1/4 mile (0.40 kin) or 10 times the building height, which- ever is greater. The International Building Coder defines wind exposure cat- egories as follows: Kx~,osu~t~ B. Urban and suburban areas, wooded areas or other terrain with numerous closely spaced obsu'uc- tions having the size of single-family dwellings or larger. F~xposure B shall be assumed unless the site meets the definition of another type of exposure. wx~osum~ c. Open terrain with scattered obstractions, including surface undulations or other irregularities, having heights generally less than 30 feet ( 9144 nun) extending more than 1,500 feet (45Z2 m) from the building site in any quadrant. This exposure shall also apply to any building located within Exposure B-type terrain where the building is directly adjacent to open areas of Exposure C-type terrain in any quadrant for a distance of more than 600 feet (182.9 m). This category includes flat open country, grasslands and shorelinas in hurcicane-prone regions. ma, ostm~ ~). Flat, unobstructed areas exposed to wind flowing over open water (excluding shorelines in hurri- cane-prone regions) for a distance of at least 1 mile (1.61 Ion). Shoreline in Exposure D include inland waterways, the Great Lakes and costal areas of Galifornia, Oregon, Washington and Alaska. This exposure shall apply only to those buildings and other structures exposed to the wind coming from over the water. Exposure D extends inland from the shoreline a distance of 1,500 feet (460 m) or 10 times the height of the building or structure, whichever is greater. * UniformBnildingCode 1997, VoL 2, StructuralErtgineering Design Provisiovs, chap. 16, div.

Determine the design wind pressure required for your installation. Design wind pressure is the amount of wind pressure that a structure is designed to withstand, expressed here in pounds per square foot (pst]. To determine the design wind pressure required for your installation, apply the following factors using Table 1: · your basic wind speed (determined in step I), · your exposure category (determined in step 2), and · the height of your roof above the ground. If your values fall outside the range of the table, or ffyour design wind pressure exceeds 50 psf, consult UniRac, a profes- sional engineer, or your local building authority. AModule provide wind rating for pressure their modules. Confirm that they meet or exceed the wind speed rating for your installation. If in doubt, contact the module manufacturer. Figure 5.

Foo~ng spacing refers to the space between L-feet (or stand- offs, if used) along the same SunFrame rail (Fig. 5). Footing spacing may not exceed 48 inches. For the rafter spacing at your installation, consult Table 2 to determine your minimum design live loads and design dead loads per footing. Locate the manufacturer and model of the PV module that you plan to install and the rafter spacing at your installation site. Read or interpolate live loads for the design wind pressure you determined in Step 3. For assistance on this point, consult a local professional engineer. A Verify that roof framing members have adequate / ~ ~ capacity to support these design loads. If they do not, try a closer footing spacing. If the result is still not accept- able, relocate the array W a stronger area of the roof or strengthen the inadequate framing elements. 5. Verify acceptable rail end overhang. Rail overhang (Fig. 5) must not exceed 50 percent of footing spacing. For example, ff footing spacing is 48 inches, the rail overhang cannot be more than 24 inches. In this case, two footings can support a rail as long as 96 inches (48 inches between the footings and 24 inches of overhang at each end).

Never allow total load (live load plus dead load) to exceed 800 pounds per footJng. 6. Ensure that live loads do not exceed pull-out limits. Based on the characteristics of your roof truss lumber and the lag screws, consult Table 3 to determine the lag pull-out value per 1-inch thread depth. Compare that value to the minimum design live load per footing determined in step 4. Based on these values, determine the length of the lag-screw thread depth you require to resist the design live load. The lag pull- out value per footing must be greater than the footing design live load. If your SunFrame rails require splices, see also "Footing and splicing requirements" (p. 11), before beginning your installa- If your SunFrame requires standoffs, always use at least two lag screws to secure each standoff to the structural member.

Placingmodulesandcapstfips, beginffmgwithtbehighestrowandmovingdowntheroofi The following illustrated steps describe the procedure in detail. Before beginning, please note these important considerations. Footings must be lagged into structural members. Never attach them to the decking Aalone, which leaves both the array and roofsusceprible to severe damage. For array w. idths or lengths greater than 32feet, contact UniRac concerning thermal Sample layout, inuswated in Figure 4 Assumptions: 12 modules (60' x 36'), arranged in 3 rows of 4 medules Array width = 144' (36' module width x 4 modules per row) Arraylength = 180 ' (60 ' module length x 3 rows) + 3 ' (1V2' end rail width x 2 rails) + 1V2' (3/4' between-module rail width x 2 rails) 1. Laying out the installation area Always install SunFrame rails perpendicular to rafters. (These instructions assume typical rafters that run from the gutter to the peak of the roof. If this is not the case, contact UniRac.) Rails are typically mounted horizontally (parallel to the lower edge of the roof), and must be mounted within 10 degrees of horizontal. Leave adequate room to move safely around the array during installation. During module installation, you will need to slide one module in each row about a foot beyond the end of the rails on one side. Using the number of rows and the number of modules per row in your installation, determine the size of your array area following Figure 6. lengi 1 '/2" at each end of array ~- space between module rows I Module length {see caption} Module Arroy width (module width times modules per row) T Roof peak ils Figure 6.

Installing the lowest row of L-feet and rail In the lowest row, it is not necessary to use L-foot adjusting sliders, even if you plan to use them in subsequent rows. Install L-feet directly onto low profile roofing material such as asphalt shingles or sheet metal. (For high profile roofs, such as tile or shake, use optional standoffs with flashing to raise L-feet. L-feet must be flush with or above the highest point of the roof surface.) L-feet can be placed with the double-slotted side against the roof surface (as in Fig. 7) or with the single-slotted side against the roof (which increases air circulation beneath modules). Module-to-roof dimensions are listed on page 15 for both ar- rangements. AIf you are using L.foot adjusting sliders, you must use the short side of the the L-foot against the roof in the ~first row. See Figure 9 below. If you are using both L-foot adjusting sliders and standoffs, see the upper box on page 11. Install the first row of L-feet at the lower edge of the instal- lation area (Fig. 8). Ensure feet are aligned by using a chalk line. (A SunFrame rail can also be used as a straight edge.) Position the L-feet with respect to the lower edge of the roof as illustrated in Figures 7 and 8.

If more than one splice is used on a rail, slide L-foot bolt(s) into the footing slot(s) of the interior rail segment(s) before splicing. Loosely attach the rails to the L-feet with the flange nuts. Ensure that rails are oriented with respect to the L-feet as shown in Figure 9. Align the ends of the raft to the edge of the installation area. Ensure that the rail is straight and parallel to the edge of the roof. Securely tighten the lag screws. Figure 9. L-foot orientation in conjunction with L-foot adjwtlr~g sliders.

Installation Manual 808.1 SunFrame® Planning and Assembly for Threaded Slot Rail Using standoffs with L-foot adjusting sliders Two-piece aluminum standoffs may be used with footing sliders, although flashings may not be available to cover the entire length of the slider. Use the bases of the standoffs only in the lowest row. In subsequent rows, attach the shaft With stoaldoffs of equal length, orient L-foot to compensate for height difference. of each standoff to the slider using the shder's 3/s-inch hex- head bolt. Note that L-feet are positioned long side up on the lowest rows and with long side down in subsequent rows-- in the same manner as an installation with no standoffs. If the standoff supporting the lowest ~il is i inch taller than the standoffs on the footing sliders, place both L-feet in the same orientation--either both long side up or both short side up. This example assumes a rail seven times the length of the shaded areas. If more than one splice is used, be sure the footing spacing (A). A splice may be located in any of the combination does not violate Requirements 5, 6, or 7. Footing and splicing requirements The following criteria are required for sound installations. While short sections of raft are structurally permissable, they can usually be avoided by effective planning, which also pro- motes superior aesthetics. See "Material planrdng for rails and cap strips" (p. 13). The installer is solely responsible for ensuring that the roof and its structural members can support the array and its live loads. For rail lengths exceeding 48feet, thermal expansion joints may be necessar2z Please contact UnlRac. 1. Footing spacing along the rail (A in illusttation above) is determined by wind loading (see pp. 54, especially step 4). Foot spacing must never exceed 48 inches. 3. Do not locate a splice in the center third of the span between two adjacent feet. 4. In a spliced length of raft, all end sections must be sup- ported by no less than two L-feet. 5. All interior rail sections must be supported by no less than one L-foot. 6. Interior rail sections supported by only one L-foot must be adjacent, on at least one side, to a raft section sup- ported by no less than two L-feet. 7. Rail sections longer than half the footing spacing re- quire no fewer than two L-feet. 2. Overhang (B) must be no more than half the length of the maximum footing spacing (A). For example, if Span A is 32 inches, Overhang B should not exceed 16 inches. Modales should always be fully supported by mils. In other words, modules should never overhang rails. This is especially critical when supporting the short side of a non-rectangalar module. When a rail supports a pair of non- rectangular modules by themselves (right)~ it must be supported by at least two L-feet. The rail should be at least 14 and no more than 24 inches long, which will likaly require a stringer between rafters to ensure proper footings. Non-rectangular modules lJBIJ~® Installation Manual SOS.1 SunFrame® Planning and Assembly for Threaded Slot Rail 3. Laying out and installing the next row of L-feet With L-feet only: Position the second row of L-feet in accor- dance with Figure 10. Ensure that you measure between the lower bolt hole centers of each row of L-feet. Install the second row of L-feet in the same manner and orientalion as the first row, but leave the lag screws a haft turn loose. Be aware of the set-up time of your sealant; the L-feet will not be fully tight- ened until Step. 4. With L-foot adjusting sliders: Use a chalkline to mark the position of the slider center holes of the next row. The illustra. lion below provides sparing guidelines. The length of the module (A in Fig. 11) includes any protrusions, such as lips or pan-head screws in its frame. Attach and seal L-foot adjusting slider: Install lower lag first, fooffng bolt next, and upper lag last. Attach an L-foot with its short side up to each slider. Figure 10. L-foot separation. See the note on module length in the caption ofFigure 4 (p. 9). Roof peak ~ A -- module length Lowest row of L-feet · ~ ~ (no footing sliders) -- Align slider center hole to chalk line Figure 11. If you are using L-foot adjusting sliders, this spacing between rows places L-feet at the center of their adjustment range. 4. Installing the second rails With L-feet only (Fig. 12): Install and align the second rail in the same manner and orientation as the first rail. After rail alignment, securely tighten the rail mounting bolts to between 30 and 35 foot-pounds. Lay one module in place at one end of the rails, and snug the upper raft (Fig. 12) toward the lower rail, leaving no gap between the ends of the modules and either rail. (If pan-head screw heads represent the true end of the modules, be sure the screw heads touch the rails on both ends.) Securely tighten the lag screw on that end. Slide the module down the rails, snugging the rails and tightening the remaining lag screws as you go. With L-foot adjusting sliders: Install rails on first and second rows of L-feet. Verify spacing by placing a module onto the rails at several points along the row. Adjust L-foot posilions as needed. 5. Installing remaining L-feet and rails Install the L-feet and the rails for the remaining rows, follow- lng Steps 3 and 4. You may use the same module to space all the rows. When complete, confirm that: Figure 12. Position and secure top raiL · All rails are fitted and aligned. · All footing bolts and lag screws are secure. · The module used for fitting is resting (but not se- cured) in the highest row. Installation Manual 808.1 SunFrame® Planning and Assembly for Threaded Slot Rail Material planning for Preplanning material use for your particular array can prevent structural or asthetic problems, particularly those caused by very short lengths of rail or cap strip. This example illustrates one approach. Stuctural requirements for rails are detailed in "Footing and splicing requirements" (p.ll). Structurally, cap strips require: · A screw in every prepunched hole (which occur every 8 inches, beginning 4 inches from the ends of the rails). · One screw 4 inches or less from the each end of every rail segment. Wherever there is no prepunched hole within 4 inches of an end of a segment, drill a i/4-inch hole 2 inches from the end of the segment and install a cap strip screw. (In most cases, you can avoid this situation with good material planning.) SO'uctural requirements always take precedence, but usually good planning can also achieve both material conservation and superior aesthetics. This example conserves material and achieves two specific aesthetic goals: · Cap strip screws must align across the rails. · End screws must be equidistant from both sides of the array. The example assumes an array of three rows, each holding five modules 41 inches wide. Thus, four 205-inch raft rails and cap strips assemblies and cap strip assemblies need to be cut and spliced from 192-inch sections of rail and cap strip. The example illustrates one means of doing so, without violating structural requirements or aesthetic goals. Rail segments come from five 192-inch lengths, lettered A thru E. Rail A, for example, is cut into two 96-inch segments, with one segment spliced into each of the first two rails. Similarly, five 192-inch cap strips are designated V through Z. All cap strip segments are cut at the midpoint between prepunched screw holes. For each rail, start with the cap strip segment that crosses the array center line, and position over the center line so that the appropriate holes are spaced equally on either side. Position each cap strip onto its rail and mark its trim point. Remove and trim before final mounting. Preliminary footing and splice positions must be checked against structural requirements in "Footing and splicing requirements" (p.11). In this example, the center of the array is offset 2, incbes ftom the center rafter. This prevents rail splices BD (3rd raiO and CE (4th rail) from fallin~ too close to the center of the spans between footings (Requirement 3, p. 11). Because foot. ings are not visible from ground level, there is negligible aesthetic loss. A Trim line (array edge) i · V 112".

Securing the first module Gather sufficient lengths of cap strip to cover the length of the first raft. For max/mum visual appeal and material conservation see "Material planning for rails and cap sttips" (p. 13). Slide the first module into final position at one end of the array. Lay the remaining modules in the top row, leaving a gap about a foot wide between the first and second modules (Fig. 13). The temporary gap allows the installer to place one of his feet between modules. He can access the section of the cap strip he needs to secure while leaning toward the peak of the roof. For the time being, the last module may overhang the rail by up to one third its width. Attach the end of the cap strip with the cap strip s~ews (Fig. 13, inset), so that the upper end of the first module is secure. AThe integrity of your array requires cap structural that strip screws fully engage the threaded rail. Use the cap strip screws supplied with your cap strips. Any substitute screws must be 1/~-20 Type F thread cutting (18-8 stainless steel) and the correct length. See Table 4 (pg. 15) to match screw length W the siee cap strip in your installation. AEvery cap strip segment must have a cap strip screw 4 inches or less fram each end. If the nearest predrilled hole falls more than 4 inches from any end, drill a V4.inch hole 2 inches from the end and install an additional AWherever it is necessary to make a new cap strip hole, drill a ~-inch hole before installing the cap strip screw. 7. Installing the remaining modules in the top row Slide the next module into final position and install the screws to secure it (Fig. 14). For a neat instanation, use cable ties to attach excess wiring to the rail beneath the flanges. UniRac's cane ties can be attached to the SunFrame rail by drilling a ¥4-inch hole in the rail and pushing the end of the tie into the hole. Continue the process until all modules in the top row are in final place and secured from the top. When complete, every prepunched hole in the cap strip will be secured by a screw, and the top end of the first row of modules will be secure. 8. Installing the remaining modules row by row Repeat Steps 6 and 7 for the remaing rows (Fig. 15). Each subsequent cap strip will secure the tops to the modules being installed and the bottoms of the modules in the row above. Place the final cap strip in the lowest rail, securing the bottom of the lowest module row. Figure 13. Begin cap strip installation. placed Figure 14.

The answer depends on the orientation of your L-feet and the length of your standoffs, if used. See the illusttation ap- propriate to your installation. How can I seal the roof penetration required when standoffs are lagged below the roofing material? Many types and brands of flashing can be used with Sun- Frame. UniRac offers a Oatey~ "No-CaLk" flashings for its steel standoffs and Oatey® or UniRac flashings for its aluminum two-piece standoffs. See our SunFrame Pro-Pak Price List. How do I attach SunFrame to a standing-seam metal roof? A good solution comes from Metal Roof Innovations, Ltd. (MKI). It manufactures the S-5! TM clamp, designed to attach a wide variety of products to most standing-seam metal roofs. It is an elegant solution that eliminates flashings and penetrations altogether. SunFrame L-feet will mount to the top of the S-5! clamps with the s/s-inch stainless steel bolt provided with the S-5! See www. s-5solutions.com for different clamp models and details regarding installation. When using S-5! clamps, make sure that there are enough damp/L-feet attachments to the metal roof to meet the Metal Roof Manufacturers' and MRI specifications regarding wind loads, etc. ~ ~ , Module thickness varies 21/4-_+ 1/8- ~ Module 2¥4'+- I/8' fhickness varies - ~ Sfondoff height (3', 4', 6', or 7' 31/8--+ 1/8' ~' all _+ 1/s') Module thickness varies 10 year limited Product Warranty, 5 year limited Finish Warranty UniRac, Inc., warrants to the original purchaser ("Purchaser") of product(s) that it manufactures ("Product") at the original installabon site that the Product shall be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of:en (10) years, except for the anodized finish,which finish shall be free from visible peeling, or cracking or chalking under normal atmospheric conditions for a period of fr~e (5) years, from the earlier of I ) the date the installation ot the ~roduct is completed, or 2) 30 days after the purchase ot the Product by the original Purchaser ("Finish Warranty").
