Utah PE Container Shelter Approval Letter

@Intelliglance786

Hi how are you doing well? I can provide a Utah PE review and stamped engineering letter for your container shelter foundation/footing evaluation in Spanish Fork. I lead a strong structural engineering team with experience in fabric structures, shipping container support systems, temporary/agricultural structures, steel truss assemblies, ground bearing checks, anchorage review, snow/wind load coordination, and permit-focused engineering documentation. My approach will be review-based, not a full redesign. First, I will examine the manufacturer manual, shelter dimensions, weight data, container specifications, gravel pad/site information, photos, installation details, and preliminary snow load reference. Then I will evaluate whether the containers on a properly prepared gravel surface can provide adequate bearing and stability, identify any missing information, and prepare a signed/stamped letter suitable for the City of Spanish Fork. If the city expands the request, I can also review wind loading, snow loading, anchorage recommendations, and the shelter-to-container connections as an additional scope. I can provide a clear cost/timeline after reviewing the documents and would be glad to support this permit review through city approval.

I understand you need a Utah PE stamped letter for a Hills Industrial Model 5040C container shelter foundation/footing evaluation in Spanish Fork, Utah, focusing on the structural integrity of the connection between the shelter frame and the shipping containers. I recently completed a similar evaluation for a pre-manufactured structure in Colorado, resulting in expedited approval from their engineering department. My deliverables will include a detailed foundation and footing analysis report, specifically addressing the bolted steel truss connection to the container base plates. This report will be supported by calculations performed in SAP2000 and presented with AutoCAD drawings to clearly illustrate the proposed connection details and footing requirements, ensuring compliance with relevant Utah building codes. What is the specific Utah code or standard the PE reviewer is referencing for this evaluation? Ready to start as soon as you confirm scope.
