With this simple shape and design, the solid hardwood is able to speak for itself. For these, the yellow poplar may work for these. Next would be the 2nd floor ceiling at L240 and finally the roof rafters (with greater than 3/12 pitch) of L180. Those floor joists look to be the most stringent deflection requirement. So this is now going somewhere.the table below tells me that if my red oak joist has a Fb value of 900 then I should be allowed to use 2x8's with a clear span of 10'7" and 16" oc, I can live with that On the other hand, if I use the red oak, then I have joists that have higher 'Bending Fb' numbers, 800-975 for the conservatively graded No.2, depending on whether its 'mixed oak' or 'Northern Red' (who can tell after its cut and dried?) My Yellow Poplar will barley meet those requirements and only if I space them 12" oc: Not what I thought but more importantly is the Fb numbers: Using the table from the AWC, to get the 'Bending design requirements Fb', I looked at this table and see that the bending values are the same regardless of what size of joists are used 2圆, 2x8, 2x10 etc. Next, the loading definitions for a room that isnt a bedroom is going to be 40 psf and for the 'dead load' a minimum of 10 psf: Using the deflection allowances for joists, I can see that the 元60 is the deflection required for a 2nd floor that isnt an attic: I see that I have to design this thing in reverse, starting with the code requirements. Such certification shall be filed as part of the building permit application. ![]() 2 grade of the species in accordance with the conditions set forth in American Softwood Lumber Standard (PS 20-99) published by the United States Department of Commerce. The producing mill shall certify in writing to the consumer or contract builder on a form to be provided by the authority having jurisdiction that the quality and safe working stresses of such lumber are equal to or exceed No. ![]() The producing mill shall sell or provide the lumber directly to the ultimate consumer or the consumer's contract builder for use in an approved structure.Ģ. In lieu of a grade mark, a certificate of inspection issued by a lumber grading or inspection agency meeting the requirements of this section shall be accepted.Įxception: Dimension lumber which is neither identified by a grade mark nor issued a certificate of inspection by a lumber grading or inspection agency may be used for load bearing purposes under the following conditions when authorized by the authority having jurisdiction:ġ. Load-bearing dimension lumber for joists, beams and girders shall be identified by a grade mark of a lumber grading or inspection agency that has been approved by an accreditation body that complies with DOC PS 20. The Building inspector also has to allow rough cut, some do, some don't. NY now uses a perscriptive code & there are span tables there. Here is the code on using rough cut lumber in residential construction for NY. Like Jwilly I too am a building inspector to help support my sawmill habit. (ps, if you dont want my stick framing post in the Post & Beam, forum, feel free to toss me out ! to the correct place for this topic ) Īm I on the right track, using the above documents to design my building ? 1' values for wood strength as these are the higest, but I am not sure if I can, maybe nobody cares for a 'accessory structure'. I would like to use the 'select structural' or 'No. The thing is that the tables rate different values for the lumber's bending design value according to which grade it is: So I consulted three documents to see if 2x8's can be used:Ī) for specs on poplar and northern red oak (my wood) I found " Design Values for Visually Graded Dimension Lumber" ī) for allowances for spans of 2x8's " American Wood Council SPAN TABLES FOR JOISTS AND RAFTERS" Ĭ) and finally, a tutorial to understand how to use the above documents to figure the allowable spans: " AWC Understanding Loads and Using Span Tables" My mill (Lucas 825) can easily cut 2x8's and with effort can cut 2x10's or larger.Īs I already have 2x8's cut and dried, I would like to frame the workshop with 2x8" x 12' max, joists & rafters. I am designing a workshop and trying to use my own lumber AND meet building code specifications for allowable spans. ![]()
