The Fruit Processing Building is located near the eastern edge of the property, south of the Feed Mill. Factory Mutual Criteria and Design Wind Pressures As requested, Factory Mutual (FM) recommendations for installing mechanically fastened single -ply roof covers, and design wind pressures determined in accordance with FM Data Sheet 1-28, were used to determine the fastener patterns provided in this report. The following criteria were used: • Basic Wind Speed: V = 135 mph (Per FM Global Plan Review Letter No. 262419 Resubmittal) • Exposure: C • Internal Pressure Coefficient: +/- 0.18 (Enclosed Building / Protected Openings) According to FM 1-28 Table 4, the Roof Field Area (Zone 1) Uplift Design Pressure is equal to 53 psf. Using the criteria and field pressure provided above, the recommended FM Approval rating for the system to be used in the Field Roof Area (Zone 1) is FM 1-120. The corresponding design pressures are as follows: • Roof Field Area = -60.0 psf • Roof Perimeter Area = -90.0 psf • Roof Corner Area = -135.0 psf The pressures stated above meet or exceed the nominal Components and Cladding uplift pressures determined in accordance with ASCE 7-10, Chapter 30, using the following criteria: • Ultimate Wind Speed: Vmc = 169 mph • Nominal Wind Speed: Vasd = 131 mph • Exposure: C - Risk Category: Category II, Ill or IV • Internal Pressure Coefficient: +/- 0.18 (Enclosed Building / Protected Openings) Pressures are allowable and include ASCE 7-10 Allowable Stress Design (ASD) load factor of 0.6. Pressures were determined for a building with a flat roof, a maximum roof height of 30'-0" and a minimum overall width of 220'-0".

The Fruit Processing Building is located near the eastern edge of the property, south of the Feed Mill. Factory Mutual Criteria and Design Wind Pressures As requested, Factory Mutual (FM) recommendations for installing mechanically fastened single -ply roof covers, and design wind pressures determined in accordance with FM Data Sheet 1-28, were used to determine the fastener patterns provided in this report. The following criteria were used: • Basic Wind Speed: V = 135 mph (Per FM Global Plan Review Letter No. 262419 Resubmittal) • Exposure: C • Intemal Pressure Coefficient: +/- 0.18 (Enclosed Building / Protected Openings) According to FM 1-28 Table 4, the Roof Field Area (Zone 1) Uplift Design Pressure is equal to 53 psf. Using the criteria and field pressure provided above, the recommended FM Approval rating for the system to be used in the Field Roof Area (Zone 1) is FM 1-120. The corresponding design pressures are as follows: • Roof Field Area = -60.0 psf • Roof Perimeter Area = -90.0 psf • Roof Corner Area = -135.0 psf The pressures stated above meet or exceed the nominal Components and Cladding uplift pressures determined in accordance with ASCE 7-10, Chapter 30, using the following criteria: • Ultimate Wind Speed: Vw = 169 mph • Nominal Wind Speed: Vasd =131 mph Exposure: C • Risk Category: Category II, III or IV • Internal Pressure Coefficient: +/- 0.18 (Enclosed Building / Protected Openings) Pressures are allowable and include ASCE 7-10 Allowable Stress Design (ASD) load factor of 0.6. Pressures were determined for a building with a flat roof, a maximum roof height of 30'-0" and a minimum overall width of 220'-0". See FM Global Plan Review Letter No. 262419 Resubmittal dated December 21, 2017 for edge distances and additional information.

Fasteners shall be corrosion resistant and each fastener must penetrate through the top flange of the steel deck a minimum of 3/4". The attachment of the single -ply roofing membrane shall be as follows: Zone 1 Provide whole sheets (6-2" wide each) with 5" wide side laps. Fasteners shall be spaced at 6" o.c. within the side laps which are spaced at 69" o.c. maximum. Zone 2 (Parallel) Sheets Parallel to Eave: Provide three half sheets (3'-1" wide each) with 5" wide side laps. Fasteners shall be spaced at 6" o.c. within the side laps. Alternately, one row of fasteners spaced at 6" o.c. in the center of whole sheets may be used. Fastener rows shall be approximately 34.5" o.c. maximum. Zone 2 (Perp.) Sheets Perpendicular to Eave: Within each whole sheet provide one row of fasteners spaced at 6" o.c. in the center of the sheet. Fastener rows shall be approximately 34.5" o.c. Extend center row of fasteners a minimum of 8'-0" in from the parapet or edge of roof. Zone 3 Provide three half sheets (T-1" wide each) with 5" wide side laps. Fasteners shall be spaced at 6" o.c. within the side laps. Within each half sheet, provide one row of fasteners spaced at 6" o.c. in the center of the sheet. Alternately, three equally spaced rows of fasteners spaced at 6" o.c. in whole sheets may be used. Fastener rows shall be approximately 17.25" o.c. maximum. Extend center rows of fasteners a minimum of 8'-0" in from the parapet or edge of roof. All Zones Each lap shall be sealed with a minimum 1.5" wide outside heat weld. Center row of fasteners shall be stripped -in with a 6" wide cover strip. Each edge of the cover strip shall be sealed with a minimum 1.5" wide heat weld. Fastener rows shall be installed perpendicular to steel deck flutes. Sheets shall not be "picture framed" unless the deck orientation changes. See Product Approval, FM Global Plan Review Letter and FiberTite literature and details for additional installation requirements. The new 1/2" coverboard shall be preliminarily fastened to the steel roof deck with FiberTite Insulation Fasteners and 3" Stress Plates. Provide six (6) fasteners and plates per 4'x8' board (minimum) or four (4) fasteners and plates per 4'x4' board (minimum) prior to placing the membrane. On -site withdrawal tests were performed at random locations to determine the average ultimate pullout value and to evaluate the ability of the roofing substrate to satisfactorily accept and retain the fasteners. The fastener patterns provided above were reviewed for an average ultimate pullout value of 667 Ibs per fastener, with a margin of safety for uplift resistance equal to 2.0. As requested, the fastening patterns provided above were extrapolated from the tested assembly fastener pattern provided in Miami Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA) No.: 16-0518.08, Page 61 of 75, and do not exceed the force per fastener determined using the above stated Product Approval and allowable pullout value. ti NF P Fj".1 Page12 of 3g Euilding°� �= ATLAS STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING, LLC F0 Box 4410IS781 Cape Coral, Florida 339€0-1578 ph9ee 239.27$.682.0 € CA t]`28380 Limitations The scope of this investigation does not include analysis of the load carrying capacity of these structures, and the fastener patterns provided in this report are based on the materials and fasteners stated above, provided by Sutter Roofing at the time of this investigation.
