Dear Steve:
Please address the following issues regarding the plans submitted for the permit referenced above.
1). The plans show a girder truss at the back of the garage. The included truss detaials do not
provide calculations for a girder truss at that location. Please provide truss detail and
make any ajustments to the foundation plan the may be necessary to support the point
loads from this girder truss. Also note that it appears that the left end reaction from beam 6
will combine with the right end reaction from this girder truss which would increase the
size of the spread footing required.
2). The calculations for the end reactions of girder truss 0 combined with the end reaction of
beam 6 at roof of porch create a point load of over 10,000 lbs. This load exceeds the
capacity of the 12 "x6" strip footing shown on the plans. Please revise foundation plan to
show adequete footing.
Please feel free to contact me at (503) 718 -2425 if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Mark VanDomelen
Plans Examiner
