Roof framing analysis · Equipment support design · Sealed drawings

The project

A national pet retailer’s Oshawa store needed new rooftop HVAC equipment. Mechanical units add heavy, concentrated loads to a roof designed years earlier, so the structure had to be analyzed and the supports engineered before installation.

What KMG did

  • Analyzed the existing roof framing for the new equipment loads

  • Designed the support details for the rooftop units

  • Issued sealed drawings for the mechanical contractor

  • Coordinated with the project team to keep the install on track

The result

The new units went in on a roof structure that was checked and detailed for the added loads, with engineering the owner, contractor and city could rely on.
