I am designing a light gauge steel building. I proposed the below connection to client between roof joist to wall stud however outside wall is going up to parapet level as shown.
So I am confused about the strength of this connection does this scheme will work or not under the 6 KN load (joist is simply supported and carrying the UDL load). i am worried about the bottom flange bending of U profile (how I can check) and screw pullout strength.
Please advise how I can make this connection better and what check do I need to analyze.
