This structural detail specifies loading criteria for an open-web joist or truss. A three-inch wood nailer is attached along the top chord. Design requirements include a horizontal force of sixteen kips under load and resistance factor design, along with an additional one-thousand-pound concentrated point load applied at any joint producing maximum stress.
JOIST (SEE MANUFACTURER'S DRAWINGS FOR DIMENSIONS) FH= 16 K (LRFD) 3x NAILER IN ADDITION TO THE ROOF LOADS AND FLOOR LOADS, ADD A POINT LOAD OF 1000# @ ANY JOINT THAT WILL CAUSE MAX STRESS OF TRUSS.
