    Vertical & Horizontal Irregularities, Type 4 (ASCE 07-16, 12.3.3)

    For light framed wood shear wall structures, is uplift required to be design with overstrength also? or only the compression? In figure c12.3-5, there is a note stating that anchorage is designed for standard load combinations. How do you typically approach this? Are there any other...

    Notching Cantilevered Beams

    Because there is no room to sister with 4 7x11.875 beams stitched together to take the load at the end. Too much deflection at the end to put a large joist in there. So, either notch, or just fur up shorter joists, or use full size and put a horizontal cut at the deck notch to prevent some...

    Notching Cantilevered Beams

    Were not ripping treated members. It's 3-layers of waterproof deck.

    Notching Cantilevered Beams

    Yes...I would agree. Wasn't an option in this case. Needed 4 7x10.33x 18' long PSL's stitched together to take a point load. Client wants Trex on deck over living, so that's why the 11.875 depths are notched down to 7.75" and then sloped to 5.75". I didn't want to do this, but what we did...

    Notching Cantilevered Beams

    Unsure of what you mean, nullifying visual grading. Can you clarify? It's a PSL with 3 layers of waterproofing at deck side.

    Notching Cantilevered Beams

    That's why I think NDS has the 1/6 Notch limitation.

    Notching Cantilevered Beams

    Are you saying this is what you do all the time? Over 4" of notch?

    Notching Cantilevered Beams

    NDS says that notching for a beam at the bearing point can be 1/4 depth per Figure 4A, NDS 2018. Does this same figure apply when cantilevering a beam, for example a house to deck, where the notch would occur on the top face where the deck steps down. When cantilevering from house to deck the...

    Is an SE license required for doing Structural Engineering in Tennessee

    Can you please site that? I just got my license there a year ago and had no such fee. I got my license thru reciprocity from CA. Hoping to do work there soon.

    Is an SE license required for doing Structural Engineering in Tennessee

    Not positive...but if its not a school or emergency facility, I imagine Civil is all you need.

    Is an SE license required for doing Structural Engineering in Tennessee

    No. Just a Civil for residential. What kind of work are you looking to do?

    Keep getting e-mail notifications despite disabling them all in preferences

    why would there be an option when watching a forum to send notifications for threads or messages....private messages then are not forum specific?

    Keep getting e-mail notifications despite disabling them all in preferences

    Thank you. however, I suppose that is my point. There is a receive news and update emails (not sure what that really means). The second one is when you haven't visited for a while. That does not indicate a daily update summary email. Last, it appears that a watched forum will send a new...

    Keep getting e-mail notifications despite disabling them all in preferences

    Sorry, I don't understand how your answer applies to my question. Can you relook at this more closely, please?

    Keep getting e-mail notifications despite disabling them all in preferences

    Is it possible to only get summary emails daily, instead of every email from a watched forum?

    Looking for Training on Risa Foundation for Residential Projects - JoshPlumSe, are you interested

    I'm looking for training with Risa Foundation for custom residential projects. I've got a few projects under my belt, but would love to pay someone that could give some ground up workflow and considerations for use, especially on using for additions and remodels on some complex projects.

    Components & Cladding for Partially Open Buildings

    I was looking at ASCE 7-22 last night, and missed that Part 1 does cover partially open buildings. So, just as you both shared, that does work. Thanks so much for your help.

    Components & Cladding for Partially Open Buildings

    From 7-16, I don't see provision here for partially open. I do see the GCPI factors from Tab 26.13-1. Am I missing something from Chp 30?

    Components & Cladding for Partially Open Buildings

    How does one design for components and cladding for a partially open building using ASCE 07-16 or 07-22? While I do see a definition for partially open buildings, and design for such for MWFRS, I don't see any design methods for CC. Thank you,

    Minimum Length Wood Shear Wall Panels

    I totally agree. I defintiely wasn't thinking of IRC/CRC here in Kali...but that obvioiusly reveals a "best practice" not explicitely stated in the SDPWS.
