(1) Moisture designations KD19, KD15,,
S-DRY, MC15 and MC19 all have identical design values.
(2) Repetitive member uses apply to joists, truss chords, rafters, studs, planks, decking
or similar members which are in contact or spaced not more than 24" on center, are
not less than three [3] in number, and are joined by floor, roof or other load
distributing elements adequate to support the design load. The Repetitive Member Factor, Cr=1.15,
has been included in the listed Repetitive Member Use design values.
(3) For Construction, Standard, and Utility grades, the Fb, Ft and Fc values apply to
4" wide lumber only.
(4) For lumber 4" thick and 8" or wide, the Fb value can be
multiplied by CF=1.1. |
