Attn: Mark Rutt P.M.B. 344 1001A East Harmony Road Fort Collins, Colorado 80525-3354 Re: Lot 14, Harmony Ridge PUD (Unit #83); Fort Collins, Colorado 4702 Dusty Sage Drive "'�? Dear Mr. Rutt, SHEAR ENGINEERING CORPORATION Shear Engineering Corporation has been involved in certain requested design changes and has conducted several framing observations throughout construction at the above referenced site. Certain observations were made on Tuesday, September 19, 2002. These observations were made primarily concerning the posting requirements for the second floor post near the stairs. For reasons unknown to Shear Engineering Corporation, the main floor and second floor beams did not line up. They are offset by approximately three (3) inches. Shear Engineering Corporation analyzed the beam loading and the post bearing requirements. Our analysis indicated that a three (3) inch notch could be cut into the 6x6 posts. This three (3) inch by six (6) inch bearing seat will provide adequate support for the second floor beam and stacks on top of the main floor beam. Shear Engineering Corporation recommends installing two (2) half -inch diameter bolts through the remainder of the 6x6 post and the second floor microllam beam. See the attached exhibit for details. If you have any questions concerning our observations or recommendations, please call (970) 226-5334. Sincerely, yatt M. Knutson, E.I.T. Shear Engineering Corporation attachment BWS / wmk Brian W.
