RE: Foundation Plan for Branded Rock Shooting Building - DeBeque, CO
Dear Nate,
Following our phone conversation this morning, I am writing this letter to confirm that the
Foundation Plan for the Shooting Building, SES Job #20-125 dated Feb. 26, 2020, is acceptable
for the 40 psf snow load for this site location. For this structure, the thickened edges were sized
based on the dead loads being supported. This aspect of the design is unchanged by the
corrected snow load. The snow loading is applied to confirm that the maximum bearing capacity
of the prepared subgrade is not exceeded. In review of the anticipated loads, it would be our
opinion that the Foundation Plan as prepared is acceptable for the 40 psf snow load.
If there are any further concems regarding this issue, please feel to contact us at your
convenience.
Respectfully,
SHARPER Engineering Services
