Re: Structural Inspection: 7123 E. 6th, Spokane,WA
Dear Mr.Branch:
At your request, a limited inspection of the above property was performed on o March 2007.
The purpose was to evaluate the structural condition of the carport and bedroom addition.
Kenneth Pfaff, P.E.,performed this inspection. This inspection did not include an overall
evaluation of the home. We did not enter all portions of the home.
This inspection report is limited to observations made from visual evidence. No destructive
testing was performed. The report is not to be considered a guarantee of condition and no
warranty is implied. This inspection and report have been conducted in compliance with the
standards of practice of the National Academy of Building Inspection Engineers. As
Professional Engineer, it is our responsibility to evaluate available evidence relevant to the
purpose of this inspection. We are not responsible for conditions that could not be seen or were
not within the scope of our service.
Our evaluation of this structure is based on many indirect observations. As with any limited
inspection,it is possible that there are some deficiencies that cannot be known.
DESCRIPTION
This home is a one story"single-wide"manufactured home with an attached carport and
bedroom addition. The home has metal and T1-11 type.siding and an asphalt composition roof
surfacing. There is a crawl space under the building which was partially accessible for
inspection. •
The basic construction of the carport consists of precast concrete pedestal footings resting on the
ground,supporting 4 x 4 wood columns near the outer edge of the carport. The columns support a 4
x 8 inch beam which supports the outer roof rafters. The inner rafters are supported on a ledger
board attached to the manufactured home. The bedroom addition is supported at the outer edge on a -:.
poured concrete footing with a short stem wall supporting the outer end of the floor joists. The
inner end of the floor joists are supported by a ledger plate attached to the home.

As we understand, the carport and addition were not permitted when constructed. There is some
concern about the adequacy of their construction.
OBSERVATIONS
The 2 x 6 roof rafters are set 24 inches on center and span approximately 12 feet-4 inches which is
excessive. The inner end of the roof rafters are supported on the home which is generally not
recommended. Further,the rafters do not appear to be secured to the outer beam or wall plate.
The outer wall of the addition provides support for the outer end of the rafters. The wall
construction was not visible,but is assumed to be a framed 2 x 4 wall.
The carport's construction is light,but typical of many we see. The 4 x 8 beam supporting the outer
end of the rafters has a maximum unsupported span of 12 feet-9 inches between the 4 x 4 support
columns.
The addition floor joists are 2 x 8's 16 inches on center. The unsupported span is approximately 10
feet-7 inches to the support at the manufactured home wall. Support of the addition's outer wall and
the floor joists is by a full length stem wall and concrete footing in the crawl space underneath. The
stem wall is of 2 x 4 construction, 16 inches on center. The footing is 12 inches wide and 8 inches
thick and constructed on grade. The stern wall and footing are inset about 1 foot inside the wall
which means the wall is supported on the cantilevered floor joists.
Inside the crawl space,we found several items needing correction. The insulation on the underside
of the floor is installed upside-down with the vapor barrier on the bottom. This can trap moisure
against the flooring and lead to rot or mold. Also,no vapor barrier is provided over the bare soil in
the crawl space to help prevent water vapor from entering the living space. No ventilation is
provided for the crawl space which can lead to moisture problems. The T1-11 skirting is not well
supported and is not an appropriate material for a skirting wall.
The roofing is standard quality 3 tab asphalt composition shingle which is not recommended for a
low slope roof.
Another non-stuctural item we observed,but of concern was the pceecnce of m.id on the walls in
the addition. It is likely that there is mold in the wall cavities as well.
CONCLUSION and RECOMMENDATIONS
In order to achieve proper roof rafter design,we believe the easiest solution is to install another 2 x
6 rafter between each of the existing rafters,essentially making them 12 inches on center. This
would require removal of the addition ceiling to accomplish this.
The inner side of the carport and addition roof should not be supported by the home. Manufactured
homes are not designed to support any additional loads. At the carport,we recommend that a f
properly sized beam be installed under the rafters to take their loading and supported by treated
i
, Marr. 21 07 05: 09p D B 2 p. 3
wood columns on precast concrete footings,similar to the outer end. In order to help prevent roof
leakage,we would not detach the carport from the home.
The rafters must be properly secured to the beams and wall plate with properly sized rafter clips.
Additional support of the 4 x 8 rafter support beam is needed in order to reduce its unsupported
spans. Either re-spacing the 4 x 4 columns and pedestal footings to achieve a maximum eight foot
span,or installing additional 4 x 4 columns on pedestal footings between the existing columns is
recommended. The columns should be treated wood and should be secured top and bottom.
The floor joist span is within acceptable standards. The footing and stem wall appear to adequately
support the outer portion of the addition. The footing is inset about 2 feet from the edge of the
home,so is considered to be frost protected.
As with the rafters,the floor joists should not be supported by the home. We recommend installing
a proper girder in the crawl space under the floor joists adjacent to the manufactured home to
support the joist loads. The girder should be supported at a proper spacing by either concrete block
or treated wood piers secured to and resting on properly sized pre-cast concrete footings at grade.
The footings should be inset at least 2 feet away from the perimeter of the home so that they will be
protected from frost.
In the crawl space we recommend installing a plastic vapor barrier over the bare soil, installing
properly supported skirting material such as treated plywood,vinyl,or cement fiber boards,
providing adequate ventilation(1 sq. ft.for each 150 sq ft of crawl space area),and either removing
the vapor barrier from the insulation or replacing the insulation with unfaced insulation.
The roofing should be replaced with a system appropriate for a low slope roof such as properly
installed rolled granular asphaltic sheet over good quality underlayment.
With attention to these items,we believe the carport and addition's structure will serve you well for
quite some time. A hard copy of this report will follow our email. If you have any questions about
this report,we encourage you to call us. Thank you for the opportunity to be of assistance.
Sincerely,
•
