Steel Joist Submittals
(OP)
Should open web steel joist shop drawing submittals be stamped?
I know that I never seen them stamped. But as far as whether or not they SHOULD be stamped, I'm not sure. The EOR usually sizes the joists based on the tables given in a joist manufacturer's catalog, but gives a net uplift design requirement for the which the joist supplier must consider. It seems like the uplift portion of the joist should be stamped somehow.

RE: Steel Joist Submittals
The uplift condition is somewhat different and should either be done by the EOR with info from the joist supplier or done by the supplier, signed and sealed for the project.
The EOR should have basic quality assurance documentation from the joist manufacturer on file to validate his reliance on their product information.
