    Calculations for Wood furring strip/cement panel siding fasteners

    Hey Guys, If someone was asking you to check the fasteners for wood furring strips/cement panel siding what would you be checking exactly? Just the withdrawal from wind and the weight of the material? In this case, it's nails.

    Hey guys, So I have a situation where I have a wood stair stringer connecting into a CFS Studd wall. I'm thinking of using a track spanned between 2 studs and bent diagonally to match the slope of the stringer with screws from underneath into the stringer to support. What do you guys think...

    Safety Factor/Load duration Factor for lifting wood panels

    Hey guys, I'm wondering if anyone has any knowledge on safety factors/other design considerations on lifting connections by crane. It seems like it would be more than the vertical load. In this case it's a lag screw connection into CLT. Thanks,

    Wood Stair Landing on Concrete Slab

    Hey Guys, So I have a wood stair landing only a couple of feet off of the ground., I am wanting to just build it up with studs, but if I do this, how would you go about attaching the studs to the concrete slab?

    0.7 deflection modifier on interior walls?

    Hey Guys, Does anyone know if you're allowed to take the 0.7 deflection modifier when designing interior walls? I can't seem to find a clear answer, the 5 psf is often treated as a "wind" load but not sure it actually qualifies for this factor. Thank you!

    @daveatkins thank you for the response, do you happen to know if that document has to be paid for everywhere or if it's been posted for free? I couldn't seem to find the full document without having to purchase but if that's the case then that's the case.

    Hey guys, What do you go off of to determine your lateral deflection limits for a header? Would it be the wall above limits? I can't seem to find much on this it's all vertical deflection. Thank you!

    Hey Guys, So I have a situation where I am needing to attach CFS track to a CLT deck in a "bearing" condition, and then also in a "bypass" condition where the wall ges past the deck.
