installed on the floor would not adversely impact the structural integrity of the house. The bottom sheeting installed to the
floor joists provide additional strength to the structure. The drop down plywood to cover the plumbing is purely aesthetic and
was installed to not adversely impacted the structure. I also certified that the bottom 2' of the right side of the exiting siding
was replaced with hardie panels according to FL13223_R1_II_Install FL product approval.
