In hanger selector, please go to flush bottom option. There you will see a option to turn on ANSI/TPI Evaluation which is technically used for the calculation of tension perpendicular to grain.
I don't either think it always goes in for compression and toe nailing has some withdrawal capacity. And yes the min. CL, Cv applies and is considered for design.
Yes, It has an option to check for loading perpendicular to grain and below neutral axis, since the members are week for tension...
Hi, i am currently designing a long lvl beam for one of my client. The beam is 24' long and is supporting roof trusses spaced at 24" o.c
The beam is 2-ply 20" deep lvl. The trusses are hanging at the top of beam as shown in the image.
1. I am wondering whether i can make use of the connected...
Hi guys, I appreciate all responses and your valuable time. I was practicing with US standards (ASCE) and in there we have a wind speed (No separate category for ultimate and service) and an appropriate load factor for strength design.
When I started working with Australian standards I have...
Hi, I am new to this forum and I am new to Australian standards. For wind load calculations, I have seen serviceability and ultimate wind speed. I am wondering why there are two categories for wind. Where to use this serviceability wind loads?
Thankyou
