4 Codes, Provisions, and Guidance CBC & ICC-ES Codes, Provisions, and Guidance National Design Specification for Wood Construction, 2005 Edition (NDS) Where to Find Specifics The NDS has design provisions Allowable = nominal x adjustment factors Adjustment factors account for a wide range of different end use applications 4

5 Basic Theory: Engineered Design Nominal Design Values defined by a table in code or NDS. Nominal Design Values based on equations in the NDS Nominal i ldesign Values Vl based on assumed end use conditions Normal Load Duration (10 year) Dry Condition of Use No Sustained exposure to elevated temperatures And others. Basic Theory: Engineered Design For nails, spikes, bolts, lag screws and wood screws Lateral load design values are calculated by yield limit equations Yield Model Withdrawal design capacity calculated from empirical (test based) equations. Split rings, shear plates, dowels, drift pins, and timber rivets etc. Lateral and withdrawal design values from empirically based tables. Connection Behavior Strength Ductility 5

10 Fastener Interchangeability NER 272 & ESR 1539 Has conversion tables for prescriptive requirements For example, if model code requires 8d commons at 6 oc, then what fastener type and spacing is equivalent Has values for engineered designs for staples and a variety of other power driven fasteners Available from international staple, nail and tool association (ISANTA) Mechanical Connections Nail installation Overdriving reduces performance Mechanical Connections Overdriven nails TT 012A APA Recommendations Prescriptive If < 20% fasteners overdriven by <1/8, then they may be ignored. If > 20% fasteners overdriven by >1/8, then add 1 additional fastener for every 2 overdriven. 10

11 CAUTION! If the additional nails violate the minimum spacing requirements (3 o.c. for 2 inch lumber for splitting), use staples and ignore the original nails. Mechanical Connections Overdriven nails APA Recommendations Mechanics Based If < 20% fasteners overdriven by <1/8, then they may be ignored. Otherwise, re analyze capacity based on average thickness of panel measured from the bottom of the nail head. (i.e. 5/8 panel with fasteners overdriven by 1/8 = capacity of ½ panel.) Adjust nailing schedule accordingly. The Basics - Engineered Withdrawal Connection Strength Depends On: Depth of penetration Wood density Fastener size and type Plus appropriate end use adjustment factors i.e. wet service, edge distance, end grain, etc. 11

Allow for dimensional changes in the wood due to potential in-service moisture cycling 3. Minimize exposure of end grain 4. Avoid moisture entrapment in connections 5. Use smaller multiple fastener connections 6. Multiple resource available to assist Quiz: Is the below a code conforming connection? Questions??? WoodWorks!
