RE: JOB SITE 640 DAYTON ST., EDMONDS, WA. 98020
On Aug. 11, 2021, Our Company performed a field survey of the existing structure 640 Dayton Ave.,
Edmonds, WA.. Cascade General Contracting, Inc., the General Contractor, asked us to check the
elevations of each of the four main corners of the as built structure and the finish elevation of the
existing composition roof peak.
We used the same elevation benchmark as shown of the building plans, Page A1.1, which was the curb
catch basin rim next to the sidewalk near the Northeast corner of the building lot. The benchmark
elevation used was 120.48 ft. , The elevations measured at the four corners of the structure were as
follows:
NW corner: 119.59 ft.; NE corner: 120.58 SE corner: 113.80 SW corner: 113.95
The average of these four corners is 467.92 / 4 = 116.98 ft. compared to the average on the house
plans which was 116.95 ft..
Using the same catch basin benchmark of 120.48 ft., we then measured the roof peak to be 141.90 ft.
The approved house plans called for a maximum height of 141.95 ft., Therefore, it is our surveyed
measurement that the as built roof peak of this structure is 0.05 ft. under the allowable height.
Please feel free to call or email me during normal hours if you have any further questions or needed
information.
