c5.1 STICK FRAMING INTRODUCTION
Tyipcal components illustrated, terminology, loading intro.
c5.2 JOIST, BEAM PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS
Structural performance in compression and tension.
c5.3 JOIST, BEAM STRUCTURAL TYPES
Member types and their relative structural efficiencies.
c5.4 DIMENSIONAL LUMBER JOISTS
Characteristics, performance, and reading span charts.
c5.5 ENGINEERED JOISTS
Characteristics, sizes, spans, and deflection.
c5.6 TRUSS TYPE JOISTS
Several truss types for floor use. Dead loads introduced.
c5.7 JOIST CENTERS AND SHEATHING
All ‘repetitive’ joist members require ‘on center’ spacing.
c5.8 TYPICAL BEAMS
Flexible capacity is a benefit. Spans and loads vary a lot.
c5.9 JOIST AND BEAMS IN A FLOOR SYSTEM
Joist types and supporting beams want to cooperate.
c5.10 TRIBUTARY LOADING PRINCIPLES
Live and dead loads get ‘distributed’ using simple rules.
c5.11 TRIBUTARY LOADS – STACK CONSTRUCTION
Stacked ‘stick’ frame construction is simple and direct.
c5.12 TRIBUTARY LOADS – BOX CONSTRUCTION
Bigger span roof and floor trusses make it simpler.
c5.13 TRIBUTARY LOADS – COMPLEX CONSTRUCTION
Complex joist framing is complex to track.
c5.14 SUPPORTING FRAMING AT FDN WALLS
Joists and beams supported at the foundation walls.
c5.15 SUPPORTING FRAMING ON WALLS, POSTS, PIERS
Typical conditions are illustrated.
c5.16 WOOD AND STEEL POST CHARACTERISTICS
Wood posts have rules. Steel posts are very efficient.
c5.17 FLOOR LOADING CONDITIONS 1
Joining methods for joists to beams are illustrated.
c5.18 FLOOR LOADING CONDITIONS 2
Floor to floor load transfer conditions are illustrated.
c5.19 FLOOR LOADING CONDITIONS 3
Wall plate loads and loading perpendicular to the joists.
c5.20 FLOOR LOADING CONDITONS 4
Beam point loading – bottom bearing and hangers.
c5.21 STRUCTURAL CHECKS FOR SIMPLE BEAMS
Deflection, bending, horizontal and vertical shear.
c5.22 SPANS, CANTILEVERS, LOAD CASES
Behaviors change with different supporting conditions.
