ATTENTION: Mr. Vaughn Cook
REFERENCE: ROCKWELL FIBERGLASS WINDOW WELL
RISA 3D ANALYSIS OF 8' -6" TALL WINDOW WELL
Mr. Cook:
Per your request, we have created a computer model of the Rockwell Window Well using
RISA 31). Using the RISA 3D computer model, we have analyzed the Rockwell Fiberglass
Window Well to determine if the window well can support lateral earth pressures up to 62poundspercubicfoot (pco. The following criteria was used in the analysis:
1. Window well dimensions = 66 inches wide x 44 inches deep x 102 inches
high. See sheets 5 thin 7 in the structural calculations for actual shape
and dimensions of window well.
2. Wall connection = Minimum of eight (8) anchors at each flange on each
side of window well. Anchors to be spaced a maximum of 18 inches on
center.
Fiberglass material properties:
Flexural Yielding Stress = 35,064 psi
Flexural Modulus = 1,516,000 psi
Shear Yielding Stress = 48,555 psi
Compression Yielding Stress = 15,189 psi
Tension Yielding Stress = 13,747 psi
Coefficient of Thermal Expansion = 0.000015 in/in/ °F
Based on our computer analysis using RISA 31), the above referenced Rockwell Fiberglass
Window Well can support lateral soil pressures up to 62 pcf. See the structural calculations
prepared by our office) dated August 29, 2008 for supporting calculations and additional
information.
We hope this meets your needs. If you have any fiuther questions regarding this matter,
please contact this office at your convenience.
