Photovoltaic System Description This photovoltaic system consists of (44) Evergreen Solar polycrystalline ES-A 205 watt modules installed in four rows on a Unirac RapidRac ballasted mounting system, facing due south on the fourth floor roof of the Daniel J. Evans Library. The DC electricity generated is converted to, and synchronized with, the AC power in the building at 208 volts via two Sunny Boy SB5000US inverters, and fed into the building power system through an equipment distribution panel on the fourth floor. Any interruption of utility power to the building will cause the inverters to shut off, per UL 1741. When utility power is restored, after a five-minute wait, the inverters will resume operation automatically. The performance of the system is monitored through the Sunny Web Box, a communication device that generates a web page that can be viewed by any computer connected by network to the Web Box, and by anyone on the world wide web via the Sunny Portal, a free service of SMA. The system is self-regulating and normally requires no attention. SMA inverters automatically wake up each day and disconnect from the grid each night. PV mounting at low elevation angles, such as with the RapidRac usually leads to some accumulation of atmospheric dust and particulates at the lower edge of the modules. Due to the Library’s location in a forested area, dust will not be as much of a factor as will pollen. Some gentle cleaning may be needed from time to time. The system is designed to be in service for decades of clean energy production.

System Design and Production Calculations The roof of the Daniel J Evans Library offers excellent solar access but there are some obstacles on the skyline. The orientation of the building is 25 degrees East of South, so the clock tower only causes negligble shading. The other skyline object is the HVAC enclosure at the southwest corner of the fourth floor roof. This only causes minor shading near the end of the day from November through January, the darkest time of year. The tree line adds to the late-year losses. The sun chart below shows the extent of shading. The net loss to this shading is about 2% of the total possible production.

The attached RETScreen model predicts an average production of 9.9 mWh/yr.

RapidRac™ Engineering Documentation, Planning and Assembly

Part II. Procedures for installations using the RapidRac™ ballasted PV Module Mounting System

This bulletin is designed to support applications for building permits for installations using the RapidRac™ minimally attached, ballasted PV Module Mounting System, manufactured by UniRac, Inc. Follow the seven steps below and the installation instructions on pages 6 –9 to install RapidRac™ in compliance with the 2006 International Building Code and ASCE 7-05. Before proceeding, note the following:

• This bulletin addresses seismic, snow, and wind loads. Wind produces the maximum load factor affecting an installation. Verify that other local factors, such as snow loads and earth quake effects, do not exceed the wind loads. Snow loading must be addressed for the building but should not exceed the capacity of the racking structure. Earthquake calculations are done based on spectral response acceleration for the maximum considered earthquake of 2.0, and Appendix B is based on the same. Adjustments can be made if local maximum considered earthquake factors are known. Wind loads create lift and drag proportional to the projected area of the modules normal to the plane of the roof.

• The roof on which the RapidRac™ Mounting System will be installed must have the capacity to resist the combined Design Dead Load and Live Load from the installed array.

Step 1. Determine Your Design Wind Speed

For the United States, the design wind speed is determined from the American Society of Civil Engineers Standard 7-05, chapter 6, pages 32-33, fi gure 6-1. This gives the nominal design 3 second gust wind speed measured over 50 years. This is the design speed used to determine wind loading. Your local building department will also have information for your area on design wind speeds. If your installation is outside the United States or if you need further assistance, consult a local professional engineer or your local building authority.

Figure 1. Basic Wind Speeds. ASCE/SEI 7-05, chap. 6, “Wind Loads,” p. 32–33, fi g. 6-1.

Notes:1. Values are nominal design 3-second gust wind speeds in miles per hour (m/s) at 33 ft. (10 m) above ground for Exposure C category.2. Linear interpolation between wind contours is permitted.3. Islands and coastal areas outside the last contour shall use the last wind speed contour of the coastal area.4. Mountainous terrain, gorges, ocean promontories, and special wind regions shall be examined for unusual wind condition.

Step 2. Determine Your Exposure Category

The International Building Code, section 1609.4.2, and 1609.4.3, pg. 293 (also referencing ASCE 7, chapter 6) defi nes wind exposure categories as follows:

exposure b Exposure B shall apply where the ground surface roughness condition, as defi ned by the surface roughness classifi cation B existing upwind of the structure in question for at least 2600 feet. (For buildings whose mean roof height is less than or equal to 30 feet, the upwind distance is permitted to be reduced to 1500 feet). Surface roughness category B is defi ned as: Urban and suburban living areas, wooded areas or other terrain with numerous closely spaced obstructions having the size of a single-family dwelling or larger.

exposure c Exposure C shall apply for all cases where Exposures B or D do not apply.

exposure d Exposure D shall apply where the ground surface roughness, as defi ned by surface roughness D, prevails in the upwind direction for a distance of at least 5000 feet, or 20 times the height of the building, whichever is greater. Exposure D shall extend inland from the shoreline for a distance of 6000 feet or 20 times the height of the building, whichever is greater. Surface roughness category D is defi ned as; Flat, unobstructed areas and water surfaces outside hurricane-prone regions, including smooth mud fl ats, salt fl ats, and unbroken ice.

Step 3. Determine Your Design Wind Pressure

Design Wind Pressure is the amount of wind pressure that a structure is designed to withstand, expressed here in pounds per square foot (psf). To determine the Design Wind Pressure required for your installation, apply the following factors:

• Basic Wind Speed (determined in step 1),

• Exposure category (determined in step 2) and

• Height of your roof above the ground.

These factors can be used to look up your design wind pressure on the Wind Loading Tables on the following page.

If your values fall signifi cantly outside the range of the table, consult a professional engineer, your local building authority, or your UniRac distributor.

The Wind force analysis is based on ASCE 7-05, Chapter 6. The details of how the wind tables are calculated are included in appendix A.
