Wood Diaphragm to Masonry Wall
Wood Diaphragm to Masonry Wall
(OP)
Trying to get an idea of what details people use to connect a wood diaphragm to the side of a masonry wall w/parapet. Any suggestions?
When was the last time you drove down the highway without seeing a commercial truck hauling goods?

I understand why, but where does the code (IBC or referenced) require you to use a treated ledger. The only thing I have found is if the ground is within 8", than it needs to be treated (2304.11.2.2)

The way I read 1403.6 that is only a requirement for buildings in flood hazard areas.
