| | |
| | 1) FBCM 301.13 MECHANICAL UNITS EXPOSED TO WIND. FOR |
| | THE SANYO OUTDOOR UNITS THE FIFTH PAGE (UNNUMBERED) OF |
| | THE CALCULATION REPORT ONLY ADDRESSES AND SPECIFIES THE |

| | HOLDING THE PANELS TOGETHER, AND THERE ARE NO |
| | CALCULATIONS FOR THE PANELS THEMSELVES (SHEAR AT HOLES |
| | BASED ON HOLE SIZE AND EDGE DISTANCE , ETC.). AS SUCH |
