Dear Mr. Laprade:
For the above address, the replaced impact, PGT Industries, Series SH 7700A minimum required wind
pressures which are based on FBC 2017 wind load calculations. The applied wind pressures are as follows per
the proposed replacement glazed units for Exposure D, wind zone 5: (SGD NOA: 20-0401.11):
6th Floor: Glazed Unit: Wind Zone: Applied Wind Pressure:
(1) 36.75”x50.75” Single Hung Window: 5 +58.3 / -75.7 psf;
In reviewing respective NOA for the above glazed units, the allowable design pressure of +65/-80 psf exceeds
these respective applied pressures and as such is acceptable to this office
If you have any questions, please contact me at any time.
