MANUAL

STANDARD BUILDING COD E

o F NEW JERSEY

GENERAL PROVISIONS

STR UCTURAL, FIRE, AND GENERAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

FOREWORD

This Manual is presented as a component part of the Standard Building Code

of the State of New Jersey. Its purpose is to control the construction, use.
and occupancy of all buildings, by presenting those standards of design and
construction which are currently cons idered reasonable and adequate to
assure public safety and health in the construction, use, and occupancy of
buildings and other structures within the State.

This Manual, through periodic revision by the State Board of Standards, wi l l

provide the elasticity necessary to keep the Code abreast of advancing tech-
niques and technological developments in the art of building construction.

Wherever possible, nationally recognized standards of good practice are

specified without modification. Where such standards are affected by state
law, or deviations are necessary for other reasons. requirements are set
forth for those matters in this Manual. Where recognized standards are not
available. or are published in a form not suited to adoption by reference in
this Manual, a New Jersey standard has been prepared from the most authori-
tative material available on the matter. If and when a recognized standard
becomes available on such matters, steps will be taken by the Board of
Standards to adopt them in this Manual.

The Manual will be revised from time to time as progress and technological
developments dictate. Additions will be made, covering other acceptable
materials and methods of construction which are found to conform to the
basic requirements set forth in the Code.

Users of the Code are required to comply with the standards of practice set
forth in this Manual unless permission in writing is granted by the Building
Official to use other standards of equal acceptability.

In order to facilitate its use, the sub-divisions of this Manual are titled to
correspond with the section titles in the Code. Where no corresponding
title is contained in the Manual, the pa r t icular matter is considered to be
fully covered by the provisions of the Code.

The material herein submitted is not intended to indicate the full contents of
this Manual. The Manual, in its developed form. will contain e s rrruch detailed
information as necessary or desirable.

SEC. MB-601.3a UNIT WCRKING STRESSES FOR CRDINARY MATERIALS (Con·t)

(3) Reinforced Gypwm Concrete. When ordinary nateria1s are used, the allowable
working stresses shall be based on the following proportions, measured dry
by weight with sufficient water to make a plastic mix that will fill the
forms: 100 per cent neat calcined gypsum: 97 per cent gypsum and 3 per
cent wood chips; shavings, or fibers; and 81.5 per cent gypSlm and 12.5
per cent wood chips, shavings, or fibers, with ultimate compressive
strengths of 1800, 1000 am 500 pounds per square inch respectively.

The working stresses shall not exceed the vakue e prescribed in the
standard for reinforced gypsum concrete herein listed subject to the ten
(10) per cent reduction prescribed for ordinary materials

(h) Steel Reinforcement. The allowable working stresses for reinforcement

specified in the standard building code requirements for reinforced
concrete herein listed shall be used in all reinforced construction,
including reinforced concrete, reinforced gypsum concrete and all forms
of' reinforced masonry subject to the ten (10) per cent reduction specified
for ordinary, unidentified materials except as follows:

Type of Steel Element Maximum stress in lb s,

per sq. inch
High Yield Strength Steel (50 per cent of' Yield Point) 30,000
Steel Pipe, concrete-filled (45 per cent of Yield Point) 16,000

( 5) Structural Steel. When materials are not identified as to manufacture

and grade, or do not conf'or'm to the requirements of SEC. 1.4 of the
AISC Specifications, or are not substantiated with certified mill test
reports, the allowable working stresses specified in the standard for
the design, fabrication and erection of structural steel shall be re-
duced ten (10) per cent. For proprietory steels substantiated
wi th certified mill test data, the above reduction shall be based
on the allowable stresses for the nearest applicable ASTM standard
cited in SEC. 1.4 of the AlSC Specifications, providing the test
data results equal or exceed those required by such ASTM standard.

(6) Cast Steel and Steel Forgings. The allowable stresses shall be the
same as those specified for Structural Steel.
