The challengesnd opportunities for quality home designs extend to all aspects

    of the structureincluding the walls.

    Trus Joists TimberStrand laminated strand lumber (LSL) andParallam parallel strand lumber (PSL) are fast becoming idealraming choices for:

    straight, flush, walls that are critical for tile applications.

    kitchen and bath walls that demand ease of countertop andcabinet installation.

    tall, straight walls in great rooms and entryways.

    window walls.

    walls with a brittle finish.

    tud-framed walls in residential construction are routinely builtusing the conventional construction provisions of the buildingodes, and these applications have demonstrated a history ofatisfactory performance. TimberStrand LSL is recognized as an

    cceptable framing material and may be used in stud applicationshat are prescribed by the building code. The advantages oftrong, straight studs in these applications are clear, and buildersrequently zone frame, using TimberStrand LSL premium studs

    in critical applications such as kitchens and baths that demandstraight walls.

    Engineered Design Assumptions

    Trus Joist Residential Wall Specifiers Guide 2126 March 2005

    CALIFORNIA NEVADA ARIZONA

    Assumptions

    Design applications are limited to vertical loads, and to lateral wind loads that are perpendicular to the wall framing only.Table information is based on the strength calculations and deflection limits of wall framing members, and was generated with thefollowing assumptions:

    Member design and lateral support requirements for bending are based on National Design Specification (NDS) 2001.

    Stud and column tables assume structural sheathing on one side of the wall, or a combination of gypsum wallboard and non-structural sheathing or siding applied to each side of the wall, or equivalent.

    Blocking/bracing at 8' on-center maximum (see page 12).

    If stud spacing is 19.2" or 24" on-center, trusses or rafters must be installed within 3" of the stud locations. This does not applyif studs are spaced at 16" on-center or less.

    The Components & Cladding (C&C) pressures shown in the Wall Design Wind Pressure table below are used only for strengthcalculations.

    Deflection limits are based on Main Wind Force Resisting System pressures, which were estimated by multiplying the C&Cpressure by 0.70 (2003 IRC, Table R301.7; 2003 IBC, Table 1604.3).

    (1) Tabulated pressures are based on the Analytical Procedure defined in ASCE 7-02 (3 second gust). Values assume aComponents & Cladding (C&C) member in the interior zone of an enclosed structure, with the following factors:

    Importance factor of 1.0 Topographical factor of 1.0 Mean roof height of 33'

    (2) Exposure Categories are generally defined as follows (see ASCE 7-02, Section 6.5.6 for complete definition):

    B = Urban and suburban areas, wooded areas

    C = Open terrain with scattered obstructions generally less than 30' in height

    D = Flat unobstructed areas

    (3) Effective Wind Area is the maximum of span times tributary width, or L2/3. For values of effective wind areas notlisted, interpolation between 10 ft2 and 100 ft2 is allowed.

    Design Example

    Trus Joist Residential Wall Specifiers Guide 2126 March 200

    CALIFORNIA NEVADA ARIZONA

    When designing with C&C pressures, the effective wind area (L2/3) helpsdetermine the wall design wind pressure. A smaller effective wind area results in ahigher wind pressure. The effective wind area should not be confused with the

    tributary area, which is used to determine the amount of load applied to anindividual member.

    1. Determine effective wind areas (ft2):

    For the studs and columns, refer to the Effective Wind Area table on page 4.A 20 stud or column will have an effective wind area of 100 ft2.

    For the headers, consult the drawing at right and use the maximum value ofthe rough opening (L) times the tributary width, orL2/3, whichever is greater.

    For the top header in our example wall, use the maximum of either(6'x5'=30 f t2) or (62/3=12 ft2).

    For the bottom header in our example wall, use the maximum of either(6'x10'=60 ft2) or (62/3=12 ft2).

    The effective wind areas calculate to 30 ft2 for the top header and 60 ft2 for

    the bottom header, so interpolation would be required to find exact pressures.For simplicity, we will use an effective wind area of 10 ft2 for each header. Thisallows us to skip the interpolation exercise, and provides a more conservativewind pressure.

    2. Determine design wind pressure: Consult the Wall Design Wind Pressure tableon page 4, using the example walls criteria of Exposure B, a 110 mph basic windspeed, and an effective wind area as calculated above:

    For studs/columns with an effective area of 100 ft2, the wall design windpressure is 20.9 psf.

    For headers with an effective area of 10 ft2, the wall design wind pressure is24.3 psf.

    3. Determine appropriate deflection criteria: Consult the Code MinimumDeflection Criteria on page 2. Our example wall contains both windows (mini-

    mum L/175) and a flexible finish (minimum L/120). Because the L/175 deflec-tion will control, the wall should be designed using the L/180 deflection valuesin this guide.

    Refer to stud, column, and header tables on pages 6, 8, 9, and 10 to design thecomponents for this example wall.

    Given:

    Wall height = 20'-0" Rough opening = 6'-0" Exposure Category B 110 mph basic wind speed

    Flexible exterior finish, walls supportwindow mullions

    Stud Example

    For the Design Example on page 5, design 20' studs for lateral wind pressure of20.9 psf and a maximum vertical load of 250 plf:

    Determine the maximum stud length:The maximum stud length in thisexample wall is 20'-0".

    Calculate the lateral load in plf:This example uses 16" on-center studs, socalculate the lateral load in plf and the vertical load in lbs as follows:

    20.9 psf x 16/12 = 28 plf; 250 plf x 16/12 = 333 lbs.

    Select the appropriate studs: In the Stud Load Table, scan across the 20'row until you find a cell in the 30 plf Lateral Load column that meets theL/180 deflection and the 333 lb. vertical load criteria. According to the table,a 1.6E TimberStrand LSL 2x6 stud is not an option. If the stud spacing ischanged to 12" on-center (for a plf of 20.9), it still would not meet theL/180 requirement. However, a 1.6E TimberStrand LSL 2x8 stud (at 4,180and L/238) spaced at 16" on-center meets the requirements, making it thebest option for this wall.

    Design stud connections: Convert 28 plf into a reaction: 28 (20/2) = 280 lbs.Use the Lateral Connections tables on page 13 to select a nail or angle clipconnection that meets or exceeds 280 lbs. For this example, a nailed connec-tion can be calculated as 280/104 = 2.69, so three 16d (314") pneumatic nails(nailed through the plate into the end grain) would work. For an angle clip

    connection, one Simpson Strong-Tie

    A34 angle clip at the top and bottomplate is sufficient.

    Column Example

    For the Design Example wall on page 5, design 20' columns for lateral windpressure of 20.9 psf and vertical loading of 5,000 lbs:

    Note: Vertical load is the load applied to the top of the column, excluding theheader reaction. The header reaction is assumed to transfer directly to thetrimmers.

    Calculate the lateral load in plf:The calculated wind pressure in theexample is 20.9, so 20.9 x 3.67' tributary width = 77 plf.

    Select an appropriate column: Scan the L/180 section of the Column LoadTables to find a 20' column that meets or exceeds the 77 plf lateral loadand the 5,000 lb vertical load. For this example, a 7" x 514" 1.8EParallam PSL column (at 79/8,530), used in plank orientation, will work fora 2x6 wall. Alternatively, a 312" x 7" 1.8E Parallam PSL column (at94/7,895) would work for a 2x8 wall.

    Design the column to wall plate connections: Convert 77 plf into areaction (uniform load x length/2): 77 (20'/2) = 770 lbs. Use the LateralConnections tables on page 13 to select a connection that meets orexceeds 770 lbs. For this example, 770/450 = 1.71, so accordingto theAngle Clips connection table, two Simpson Strong-Tie

    A35 connectors would be requiredone on each sideof the column, at both the top and bottom plates.

    Header Example

    The Design Example on page 5 assumes that both headers will be the same size,and considers worst-case loading. Design the headers for lateral wind pressure of24.3 psf based on the lower headers 6 ft rough opening and 10 ft tributarywidth, and a vertical load based on the upper headers maximum 250 plf.

    Calculate the lateral load in plf:The calculated wind pressure in theexample is 24.3 psf, so 24.3 x 10' tributary width = 243 plf.

    Select the appropriate header: Scan the L/180 section of the HeaderLoad Table to find a header that meets your requirements (243 plf lateraland 250 plf vertical). For this example, a 6' header of 514" x 514" 1.8EParallam PSL (at 500/956) will work for a 2x6 wall. Alternatively, a 7 14" x312" 1.3E TimberStrand LSL header (at 500/289), used in plank orienta-tion, will work for a 2x8 wall. Since the table numbers for these selectionsare not bold, only one trimmer stud is required for bearing. Headers thatdo not match the wall thickness must be directly attached to a plate thatmatches the wall thickness to provide lateral bracing (see detail L13 onpage 13).

    Design header to column connections: Convert 243 plf into a reaction(uniform load x length/2): 243 (6'/2) = 729 lbs. Use the LateralConnections tables on page 13 to select a connection that meets orexceeds 729 lbs. For this example, 729/450 = 1.62, so according to the

    Angle Clips connections table, two Simpson Strong-TieA35 connectors,

    one at the top and bottom on both sides of each header, is sufficient.
