This diagram establishes the structural criteria for drilling holes in parallel strand lumber joists supported by vertical members. Holes must be restricted to the middle one-third of the span and the middle one-third of the joist depth. Multiple holes within the designated parallel strand lumber hole zone require a clear horizontal spacing of at least two times the diameter of the largest hole.
