Simspon ats between floors only. Within the see footnotes column is a parameter listed as ns. Allowable loads for the rtud only. Check out three of these curvy topped shapes in the figure. We average about a 5 degree difference between our upstairs and downstairs but it gets larger in the heat of summer and cool time of winter.

Support floor joists with a depth to thickness ratio of six or more with bridging at intervals not exceeding 8.

Where framing is parallel to wall install blocking within 6 of each end of steel strong wall. The tension bridging spreads the weight load which reduces the possibility to structural damage as well. Hoping to gain a better understand of why and what to do about the large temperature difference between floors. If span is greater than 16 use more than one pair.

Simpson strong tie take up devices tuds and aluminum tuds atuds have very little deflection δ a δ r and therefore minimize the contribution of device displacement to the 0 20 deflection limit which allows for smaller rod diameters. Considering only construction type and occupancy and use type table 506 2 lists the allowable areas. Base material temperature f. Blocking depth shall match floor framing depth.

See the simpson strong tie wood shrinkage calculator for more information regarding wood shrinkage. Tension bridging works only in tension so must be used in cross pairs. If span is greater than 16 use more than one pair. You can call them trapezoids because they play the same role in simpson s rule as the true trapezoids play in the trapezoid rule.
