ESR-1153 | Most Widely Accepted and Trusted for simple spans; and 31/2, 51/4 and 7 inches (89, 133 and 178 mm) at intermediate support points for continuous spans. When joists are used as multiple span members, the calculated shear, used for design at the intermediate support, may be reduced by the percentage determined from the following formula and limited to the depths shown in Table 4: R = W K red 18% where: Kred = V12 100. R = The percent reduction. V12 = The reference design shear for an 7 11 /8-inch-deep (302 mm) joist (pounds). W = The uniform load (plf). The reference design shear at the interior supports of multiple-span-member TJI joists up to 12 inches (305 mm) deep, used in residential floor construction, is permitted to be increased by 10 percent. This increase in reference design shear does not apply to the design shear at the ends of the joists. 4.3 Fasteners: Reference lateral and withdrawal design loads for fasteners, installed parallel or perpendicular to Microllam LVL or TimberStrand LSL flange glue lines, must be determined in accordance with ESR-1387 and the applicable code. Reference lateral and withdrawal design loads for fasteners installed into TJI joist sawn lumber flanges must be designed using the applicable code and a specific gravity of 0.42, such as for spruce-pine-fir. Allowable nail spacings for TJI joist diaphragm applications must be as specified in Sections 4.14 and 4.15, and Table 2. For nondiaphragm applications: 1. The spacing of fasteners installed into the face grain of Microllam LVL or TimberStrand LSL flanges must be greater than or equal to the closest permitted on-center spacing prescribed by the code for fasteners installed in sawn lumber. The spacing of fasteners installed into the edge grain of Microllam LVL or TimberStrand LSL flanges must be greater than or equal to the closest permitted on-center spacing requirements detailed in ESR-1387. 2. The spacing of fasteners installed into TJI joist sawn lumber flanges must be as prescribed by the code for fasteners installed in sawn lumber. The allowable lateral load capacity of 10d by 1 1 /2-inch-long (38 mm) common nails used to connect minimum No. 18 gage [0.048 inch (1.2 mm) base-metal thickness] metal straps or tension-ties, recognized in a current ICC-ES evaluation report, to TJI joist flanges, in conformance with Figure 6 of this report, is 112 pounds-force (498 N) per nail. The connections with the structural composite lumber flanges may be used for out-of-plane wall anchorage 1 to flexible diaphragms in lieu of the minimum 2 /2-inch (63.5 mm) wood element thickness specified in Item 5 of Section 1633.2.8.1 of the UBC. 4.4 Web Stiffeners: Web stiffener requirements for reactions and concentrated loads are noted in Table 3 and Figure 1. 4.5 Lateral Support: TJI joist compression flanges with widths less than 2.3 inches (58 mm) require lateral support every 18 inches (457 mm) on center. TJI joist compression flanges with

Page 2 of 24 widths equal to or greater than 2.3 inches (58 mm) require lateral support every 24 inches (610 mm) on center. Each connection must be capable of transmitting a 75-poundforce (334 N) horizontal load. All TJI joist ends require restraint to prevent rollover. Code prescribed methods of lateral restraint specified for sawn lumber are acceptable. Bridging is not required for floor and roof TJI joist applications. 4.6 Holes in TJI Joist Web: The tables in Figures 2 and 3 specify allowable sizes and location of round, square and rectangular holes in the TJI joist webs. TJI joists with holes located in the web in accordance with Figures 2 and 3 are permitted to be used in the fire-resistive-rated Assemblies B, C, D, E, F, G and H described in Figures 4B through 4H. 4.7 Duration of Load: Adjustments for duration of load, in accordance with Part 2.3.2 of the NDS or Item 6 of Section 2316.2 of the UBC, apply to the TJI joists and their fastenings. 4.8 In-service Moisture Conditions: TJI joists must be installed in dry service conditions, where the moisture content in-service is less than 16 percent, as in most covered structures. 4.9 Repetitive-member Use: The repetitive-member use factor applicable to the resistive moment capacities listed in Table 3 is limited to 1.0. 4.10 Member Spans: TJI joist spans must be determined in accordance with Part 3.2.1 of the NDS. Vertical shear calculations must include all loads within the span from face to face of supports. 4.11 Deflection: Deflection of simple span TJI joists with either uniform load or a concentrated load at midspan is determined using the formulas in the footnotes to Table 3. 4.12 Blocking Panels: Bearing walls perpendicular to and supported by TJI joists at the end or intermediate supports, or both, require full-depth blocking. TJI joists up to and including 16 inches (406 mm) in depth, when used as blocking panels, have a maximum vertical load transfer capacity of 2,100 plf (30 645 N/m). TJI joists over 16 inches (406 mm) and up to and including 20 inches (508 mm) in depth, when used as blocking panels, have a maximum vertical load transfer capacity of 1,550 plf (22 620 N/m). 4.13 Rim Joists: TJI joists having depths of up to and including 16 inches (406 mm) may be used as rim joists and boundary members of horizontal wood structural diaphragms. The joists have a maximum vertical load transfer capacity of 2,100 plf (30,645 N/m). TJI joists used as rim joists must be laterally supported at the top and continuously supported at the bottom, and the gravity loads must be uniformly applied along the top. Other loading and support conditions must be investigated and approved by a design professional. 4.14 TJI Joists as Prescriptive Diaphragm Framing Members: TJI joists are permitted as framing members in prescriptive floor and roof diaphragm construction in accordance with Section 2308 of the IBC or Chapters 5 and 8 of the IRC. When TJI 110, TJI 210 or TJI 230 series I-joists are used in floor diaphragm construction, the thickness of the 19 sheathing must be /32 inch (15.1 mm) or greater.

For SI: 1 inch = 25.4 mm, 1 plf = 14.59 N/m. Allowable shear loads for wood structural panel diaphragms with TJI joist framing must be determined in accordance with Tables 4.2A and 4.2C of the SDPWS or Table 2306.2.1(1) of the 2009 IBC, using the equivalent nominal framing width and specific gravities specified in Table 2, and must not exceed the maximum permitted design capacity given in Table 2. 2 One row of nails is permitted along each sheathing panel end and edge. When nail spacing is less than 6 inches on center, adjacent nails within a row must be offset (staggered). The closest permitted nail spacing in Table 2 must not be exceeded. Solid sawn framing members must be used in lieu of TJI joist framing members where the fastener spacing required in SDPWS Tables 4.2A and 4.2C or 2009 IBC Table 2306.2.1(1) is closer than the closest permitted nail spacing given in Table 2 of this report. 3 The maximum allowable seismic design capacities of Table 2 may be increased by a factor of 1.4 for wind design applications. 4 The design capacity of an unblocked diaphragm framed with TJI 110, TJI 210 or TJI 230 joists may be multiplied by a factor of 1.18 if a nonpolyurethane sub-floor adhesive is used in combination with mechanical fasteners for sheathing attachment. Continuous special inspection is not required for this adhesive application.

The stated reference design values are for loads of normal duration. Adjustments to the reference design values must be in accordance with the applicable code, with the exception noted in footnote 10 below. 4 Interpolation between bearing lengths and joist depths is permitted for reference design reactions. 5 The minimum bearing length is permitted to be reduced for joists supported by hangers if supplemental nail attachment is provided to the web stiffener. 6 Required bearing lengths have been determined based on Weyerhaeuser TJI Joist products. Allowable bearing stresses on supporting members must be checked. 7 1 Referenced design reactions require 5 /4-inch and 7-inch bearing lengths at intermediate supports. 8 Joist weights shown are calculated on a rational basis, are based on the heavier of eastern or western species products and are suitable for dead load calculation. Contact the producing plant for shipping weight information if needed. 9 1 Applicable to TJI HD90 and TJI HS90 joists only. Tabulated values indicate reference design bearing reactions for a 2 /2 inch bearing length at end supports. 3 1 /4 inch end bearing lengths are also permitted; with reference design reactions of 1600 lbs. without web stiffeners for depths up to and including 18 inches; 7 with web stiffeners the reference design reaction is 2255 lbs. for the 11 /8 inch depth and 2450 lbs. for all other depths. 10 The reference design moment values listed in Table 3 may not be increased by any code allowed repetitive-member use factor. 11 Applicable to TJI HD90 and TJI HS90 joists only. Reference design reaction values are based on applicable hanger seat length (interpolated as per note 4 above) may be increased 510 lbs when supported by Simpson Strong-Tie Co. HWI or WPU joist hangers with a minimum of 4 10d common nails installed through the joist hanger stirrups and into the joist web stiffener and web. 12 Use 90% of the published TJI 210, 230, 360, and 560 joist bending capacity for TJI joists with Flak Jacket protection when used in one-hour fireresistance-rated Assembly H described in Figure 4H of this report.

Page 9 of 24

Web stiffeners must be installed at bearing points as required in Table 3. Web stiffeners must be installed at points of concentrated loads greater than 1500 pounds and are to be nailed in accordance with the intermediate reaction schedule in Table 3. 3 Web stiffeners are to be installed on each side of the web as shown, with nails equally spaced vertically. 4 A gap must be left at the top of web stiffeners as shown at all bearing conditions. In the case of concentrated loads, web stiffeners are required as shown and the gap must be at the bottom. 5 Web stiffener material must be sheathing meeting the requirements of PS-1 or PS-2 with the face grain parallel to the long axis of the stiffener. 6 Some hangers require web stiffeners to comply with nailing requirements through side plates. 7 If web stiffeners are not used in hanger support, the side of the hanger must extend up to laterally support the top flange. 8 See manufacturers published installation instructions for additional details and requirements for web stiffeners. Web stiffener specifications are as follows: TJI JOIST SERIES TJI 110 TJI 210 TJI 230, TJI 360, TJI L65 TJI s31, TJI s33, TJI 100C, TJI 300C TJI s47, TJI 560, TJI 560D, TJI L90, TJI H90 TJI HD90, TJI HS90

Over 2.5 square feet) with 25 psf dead load and 20 psf partition load. 2. For uniformly loaded multiple span applications holes must be located 1.0 inch farther from the support for each foot of joist span, than the values indicated in the Charts. 3. Holes are not allowed in cantilever areas unless specifically designed by a qualified design professional. 4. Where more than one hole is to be cut in the web, the clear distance between holes must be twice the length of the longest dimension of the largest adjacent hole. 5. Hole sizes shown are hole sizes, not duct sizes. 6. Rectangular hole sizes are based on measurement of the longest side. 7. Hole locations are measured from inside face of joist support to nearest edge of hole. See Figure 3. 1. For SI: 1 inch = 25.4 mm, 1 foot = 304.8 mm.

VAR-1008 | Most Widely Accepted and Trusted Appendix A Discussion Related to Life-Cycle Assessment A1.0 GENERAL

Page 12 of 12

The following information is intended to provide some general background on LCA provisions in existing rating systems and standards. Users are advised that the science of LCA is still evolving and there are no standardized procedures for such an analysis. It must be noted that Section 609.1 of ICC 700, Section A5.409.1 of the California Green Building Standards Code (CALGreen), Section 9.5.1 of ASHRAE 189.1, and Section 10.1.1 of Green Globes encourage the use of comparative LCA as means of selecting preferable materials, systems or building assemblies. However, LCA results should not be interpreted beyond the scope of the boundary limits used in performing the LCA. This VAR indicates that iLevel and Weyerhaeuser products may be eligible for points related to LCA by use of the information contained in the documentation noted in Section 5.10 of this report. This appendix discusses additional information required by the user of this report related to achieving points or demonstrating compliance based on LCA output. A2.0 DISCUSSION RELATED TO ICC 700 As indicated in the ICC 700 Commentary, points can be obtained based on the results of an analysis based on an LCA. For the purpose of compliance with the intent of ICC 700, the following steps (as a minimum) are recommended: Fully define the benchmark material, product, assembly, or structure Fully define the product or assembly proposed as more environmentally friendly Fully define the endpoints or boundaries of the analysis (so-called cradle-to-gate, cradle-to-grave, cradle-to-cradle, gateto-gate, etc). For analyses that go beyond cradle-to-gate, a separate report is recommended for each application or use category. Such reports are also recommended to include a discussion of the sensitivity of the analysis to major assumptions for major parameters. Employ an LCA method complying with ISO 14044. Report all applicable attributes of the benchmark analysis and the proposed product/assembly analysis that are relevant to the LCA. The involvement of an individual with experience in the field of LCA and who is knowledgeable in the latest research and standards related to LCA, from the earliest planning stages through completion of the final assessment, is recommended. An independent peer review of the entire LCA methodology and its conclusions by an individual knowledgeable in LCA is recommended. Examples of an LCA that meets these requirements can be found in the series of CORRIM reports (www.corrim.org) that address a broad range of wood-based building materials. A3.0 DISCUSSION RELATED TO CALGREEN AND ASHRAE 189.1 Similar to the requirements of ICC 700, Section A5.409.1 of the CALGreen and Section 9.5.1 of ASHRAE 189.1 allows the use of selected materials or assemblies based on LCA done in accordance with ISO 14044. A4.0 DISCUSSION RELATED TO ANSI/GBI 01-2010 Although life-cycle assessment in its broad sense is too complex for standardization at this time, the use of a specific tool (e.g., Green Globes LCA Credit Calculator) in strict accordance with the rating system intent of comparative analysis of specific components of the building is reasonable. However, users are advised to consult with persons familiar with LCA tools when conducting this analysis. Additional guidance regarding the Green Globes LCA Credit Calculator is provided in Appendix N of the Green Globes document.
