NOTES FOR PCM, US-NATION-WIDE, GENERIC, PV, STRUCTURAL INSTALLATION
THIS SEALED PLAN CONFORMS TO: ASCE 7-10; INTERNATIONAL BUILDING CODE (IBC) 2010 - PLUS EARLIER VERSIONS; STATE BUILDING CODES
BASED UPON IBC - FLORIDA 2010 FBC IN PARTICULAR.
THIS PLAN IS:
• INTENDED FOR THE STRUCTURAL ATTACHMENT OF ANY AND ALL APPROVED PV MODULES OF STANDARD LENGTH & WIDTH DIMENSIONS AND
PROPORTIONS.
• INTENDED FOR USE WITH ROOF COVERINGS OF ALL TYPES AND ON ALL ROOF SLOPES FROM FLAT THRU 12-IN-12 AT ROOF HEIGHTS OF 60-FT
OR LESS WITHIN US.
• SHALL ONLY BE USED FOR PV INSTALLATIONS UTILIZING PCM RAILS & SPECIFIED HARDWARE. THIS PLAN SHALL ONLY BE USED FOR MOUNTING
PV MODULES:
• THE DETAILS SPECIFIED ON THIS “PAPER” PLAN ARE CONSIDERED TO BE THE MINIMUM NEEDED BY AHJ AND INSTALLERS. USERS ARE
ENCOURAGED TO ACCESS AN EV (ELECTRONIC VERSION) OF THIS PLAN AT WWW.GEZELMANPE.COM/PV/0203P.PCM10_US.PDF . HYPERLINKS
ARE EMBEDDED IN EV WHICH PROVIDE EASY ACCESS TO SUPPLEMENTAL OEM, GOVERNMENTAL, AND OTHER INFORMATION SOURCES OF
VALUE. EV ALSO ALLOWS VIEWER TO STUDY THE PLAN AT A MAGNIFICATION OF HIS CHOICE UP TO 6400%. IF A CONFLICT SHOULD OCCUR
BETWEEN THE SPECIFICATIONS HEREON AND AN OEM DETAIL, OEM SHALL PREVAIL.
MOUNTING LIMITATIONS:
1. ROOF PRESSURE ZONE 3 (PZ-3) SHALL NOT BE USED WITHIN MIAMI-DADE. OUTSIDE MIAMI-DADE, PZ3 MAY BE USED WITH AN EOR (ENGINEER OF
RECORD) SPECIAL REQUEST, SEALED, LETTER WHICH SHALL PROVIDE DETAILS FOR SITE-SPECIFIC ADAPATION OF THIS PLAN. PZ1 & PZ2 MAY BE
USED ANYWHERE IAW (IN ACCORDANCE WITH) PCM RAIL SPACING SPECIFIED IN FIGURE 02 THIS PLAN.
2. PV MODULES SHALL BE MOUNTED PARALLEL WITH ROOF (AND WITHIN A FEW INCHES) OR TILTED UP AT NOT GREATER THAN (NGT) 15-DEGREES
FROM THE HORIZONTAL .
3. THOSE DESIRING THAT EOR PROVIDE PLANS FOR CONDITIONS OTHER THAN HEREIN STATED, AND/OR RACKING OTHER THAN PCM, AND/OR
INSTALLATION IN ROOF PRESSURE ZONES OTHER THAN PZ1 & PZ2, AND/OR TILT-UP GREATER THAN 15-DEGREES ABOVE THE ROOF PLANE, AND/OR
INSTALLATIONS OUTSIDE OF US, AND/OR ELECTRICAL DESIGN, ARE REQUESTED TO CONTACT E0R DIRECTLY-OFFICE: 813 909 1956, E-MAIL:
[email protected]
STRUCTURAL:
· SEISMIC - THIS PLAN IS EXEMPT IAW SUB-PARAGRAPH 6 OF ASCE 7-10 PARAGRAPH 13.1.4
· SNOW - SPECIFIED MATERIALS & METHODS ARE SUFFICIENTLY STRONG TO ACCOMODATE SNOW LOADS OF 10-PSF AND UNDER USING PCM RAIL
ATTACHMENT SPACING
SPECIFIED IN FIGURE 02. IN AREAS OF GREATER THAN 10-PSF GROUND SNOW LOAD AS DETERMINED BY ASCE 7 OR AHJ, USE SNOW & WIND
COMBINATION RAIL-TO-ROOF
ATTACHMENT SPACING TABLE WWW.GEZELMANPE.COM/GENERIC/PCM.WINDSNOW_US.HTM
· WIND IS THE MAJOR STRUCTURAL CONSIDERATION FOR ROOF-MOUNTED SOLAR EQUIPMENT
THERE SHALL BE TWO PCM RAILS EQUALLY-SPACED UNDER EVERY PV MODULE (ABOUT 25% IN).
PV MODULES MAY BE LANDSCAPE OR PORTRAIT AT CONTRACTOR OPTION. PCM RAILS SHALL RUN PERPENDICULAR TO ROOF FRAMING.
PCM RAILS SHALL BE ATTACHED TO ROOF FRAMING MEMBERS AT DISTANCES NGT (NOT GREATER THAN) CENTER-TO-CENTER DISTANCES
SPECIFIED IN FIGURE 02.
ROOF ATTACHMENT: AT EACH SPECIFIED ANCHOR POINT - A SINGLE CORROSION RESISTANT STEEL (CRS), 5/16” MINIMUM DIAMETER LAG, 3” LONG
IS ACCEPTABLE AT WINDSPEEDS 150 OR LESS. ABOVE THAT, TWO LAGS ARE REQUIRED. A SINGLE, 3/8TH INCH DIAMETER, “J” BOLT IS ACCEPTABLE
ANCHORAGE AT ALL WINDSPEEDS. PV MODULES SHALL ATTACH TO PCM RAILS AT EVERY CROSSING POINT WITH A GSAS MODULE CLAMP OR PCM
CLAMP. ADJOINING MODULES MAY SHARE ATTACHMENT CLAMPS.
S-5 CLAMPS SHALL BE USED ON STANDING SEAM MEATAL ROOFS IN CONJUNCTION WITH PCM RAILS RUNNING PERPENDICULAR TO STANDING
SEAMS. RAIL TO STANDING SEAM CONNECTIONS SHALL BE MADE USING S-5 CLAMPS AT NGT 6-FT S-5 TO S-5 IN PZ1 AND NGT 4-FT S-5 TO S-5 IN PZ-2.
WATERPROOFING; S-5 INSTALLATIONS INVOLVE NO ROOF PENETRATIONS. FOR OTHER ROOFS, LAGGING THRU A GENEROUS PUDDLE OF NOA/PCA
(MIAMI-DADE/FLORIDA) APPROVED ROOFING SEALANT SHALL BE ADEQUATE. CONTRACTOR MAY, WITH APPROVAL OF AHJ, USE ALTERNATE MEANS
& METHODS. CONTRACTOR SHALL ADHERE TO BEST PRACTICES/MEANS & METHODS OF ROOFING CHAPTER OF APPLICABLE BUILDING CODE AND
NRCA ROOFING & WATERPROOFING MANUAL TO ENSURE NO ROOF LEAKS AT SYSTEM START-UP OR AS SYSTEM AGES.
