4x6 wood post splice
4x6 wood post splice
(OP)
I have a four story building and need 4x6 post under the roof beam to go to the foundation. I need to splice the post at the second floor level because of the length of the post (approximately 40'). The floors provide lateral support for the post at the floor levels. Any easy detail to splice the 4x6 post at the mid span?

Usually though, if platform framing is used, the first two levels are platform framed and the next two are standard framing.
