Letter of Compliance:
Per your request, we have reviewed the referenced project’s design parameters for the 30 mm
Caliza Limra Limestone units. This structural review was performed to determine the integrity of the
specified stone material and the specific requirements and/or deviations to the standard installation
requirements for the Gridworx Aluminum Anchoring System.
Design Wind and Seismic Pressures have been evaluated and determined in accordance with the
2013 California Building Code and ASCE 7-10. Interpretation of the Building Codes for the project
location, the maximum building height, and site specific parameters for Components and Cladding,
with tributary areas of 10 square feet, yields critical design pressures as follows:
Typical Wind Zone regions as +14.73 psf / -15.97 psf

Corner Wind Zone regions as +14.73 psf / -19.72 psf
Seismic on Body Components as +/- 10.575 psf

Seismic on Connection Components as +/- 33.047 psf
Specific site parameters for the project have been interpreted as:
Basic Wind Speed = 110 mph

Mean Roof Height = 45’-0”
Exposure = B
Category = II
Importance Factor, IW = 1.0
Importance Factor, IE = 1.0
Specific Requirements and Materials identified for compliance are as follows:
Stone Material = Caliza Limra

Limestone Min MOD Rupture = NA
Min FLEX Strength = 1000 psi
Density = 152 pcf
Weight (1.181” stone) = 16.54 psf
Nominal thickness = 1.181” Tolerance - (+ / - 1/8”)

Gage from face = 0.500” Tolerance - (+ / - 1/16”)
Kerf width = 0.188” Tolerance - (+ / - 1/16”)
Kerf depth = 0.500” Tolerance - (+ 1/8, - 1/16”)

SEISMIC ANALYSIS PER ASCE 7-10
Each element or component and its connections to the structure shall be designed to resist a total lateral
seismic force, Fp, as provided by the following ASCE 7-10 equation (13.3-1 pg. 113):
0.4 ⋅ ap ⋅ Sds ⋅ WE ⎛ z⎞
Fp ≔ ―――――⋅ ⎜1 + 2 ⋅ ― ⎟
⎛ Rp ⎞ ⎝ h⎠
⎜―― ⎟
⎝ IE ⎠
Coefficient Values for Input:
Sds ≔ 1.332 (Structural Notes Sheet S-000.00)
IE ≔ 1.0 (ASCE 7-10 - Section 13.1.3)
h ≔ 45 ⋅ ft (Structure Roof Height)
z ≔ 45 ⋅ ft (Worst Case Height of Component Attachment)
WE ≔ 16.54 ⋅ psf (Weight of 1.181" thick Caliza Limra Limestone + 1/8" Tolerance)
Due to the continuity of the curtainwall system and a series of lateral load resisting anchors, applied seismic loading
can be modified as a uniformly distributed load proportionate to the mass distribution over the height.
Therefore, the computed magnitude of the seismic load can be compared to the windload pressure to determine the
governing normal design load for anchoring components. In-plane requirements must be independently investigated
utilizing the computed seismic requirements and continuity developed by the applicable element.
Per Section 13.4 Nonstructural Component Anchorage:
1. Bodies of the connection shall be designed for the force determined by Equation (13.3-1) where:
Rp_Body ≔ 2.5 and ap_Body ≔ 1.0 (Values from Table 13.5-1 pg. 117)
0.4 ⋅ ap_Body ⋅ Sds ⋅ WE ⎛ z⎞

Therefore, Fp_Body ≔ ――――――― ⋅ ⎜1 + 2 ⋅ ―⎟ Fp_Body = 10.575 psf

2. All Fasteners in the connecting system. such as bolts, inserts, weld and dowels, shall be designed for
the forces determined by Equation (13.3-1) where:
Rp_Connection ≔ 1.0 and ap_Connection ≔ 1.25 (Values from Table 13.5-1 pg. 117)
0.4 ⋅ ap_Connection ⋅ Sds ⋅ WE ⎛ z⎞

Therefore, Fp_Connection ≔ ――――――――⋅ ⎜1 + 2 ⋅ ― ⎟ Fp_Connection = 33.047 psf
Rp_Connection ⎝ h⎠
――――

Note: The above values for Fp are derived using a factored load method. For use with allowable stress design
methods (ASD), these values can be multiplied by the seismic load factor of 0.7 per ASCE 7-10 Section 2.4 pg. 8.
