system performance
The ultimate goal in the design of a floor or roof system is the end
users safety and satisfaction. Although joists used at spans indicated
in this guide meet or exceed minimum code criteria and will safely
support the loads imposed on them as outlined in this guide,
judgement must be used to adequately meet user expectation
levels . These expectations may vary from one user to another.
A stiffer floor will result from using a live load deflection limit
of L/480 versus the code minimum L/360. A roof system with
less total load deflection than the code required L/180 may be
achieved by using an L/240 criterion.
dEC 2012
PaGE
Vibrations may occur in floor systems with very little dead load,
as in large empty rooms. A gypsum wallboard ceiling attached to
the bottom of the joists will generally dampen vibration as will
interior partition walls running perpendicular to the joists. If a
ceiling will not be attached to the bottom of the joists, vibration
can be minimized by nailing a continuous 2x4 perpendicular to
the bottom of the joists at midspan running from end wall to end
wall. Where future finishing of the ceiling is likely, x-bridging or
Wood I Beam blocking panels may be used in place of the 2x4.

NOTES:
1 . These span tables are based on uniform loads, as noted above; live load deflection is
limited to L/480 for better performance. Floor performance is greatly influenced
by the stiffness of the floor joists . Experience has shown that joists designed to the
code minimum live load deflection (L/360) will result in a floor which may not meet the
expectations of some end users . Floor spans for Wood I Beam joists in this table are
based on L/480 live load deflection . (One-third stiffer than required by code .)
PaGE
2 . Spans are clear distances between supports, and are based on composite action with
glued-nailed APA Rated sheathing or Sturd-I-Floor panels of minimum thickness 19 329
(40/20 or 20 o .c .) for joist spacing of 19 .29 or less, or 23 329 (48/24 or 24 o .c .) for a joist
spacing of 249 .
dEC 2012
Adhesive must meet APA AFG-01 or ASTM D 3498 . Apply a continuous line of
adhesive (about 149 diameter) to top flange of joists . All surfaces must be clean and dry .
If sheathing is nailed only (not recommended), reduce spans by 129 .
3. Minimum end bearing length is 13 49. Minimum intermediate bearing length is 31 29.
4 . For multiple-span joists: End spans must be at least 40% of the adjacent span . Spans
shown above cover a broad range of applications . It may be possible to exceed these
spans by analyzing a specific application with FASTBeam selection software .
5 . For loading other than that shown above, refer to Uniform Load Tables, use FASTBeam
software, or contact Georgia-Pacific Engineered Lumber Technical Services .

General notes and information for allowable uniform Loads floor and roof
(use these general notes for pages 12-13)
1 . Table values are based on: (a) clear distance between supports, (b) simple or multiple
spans, (c) spans of multiple span joists at least 40% of adjacent span .
2 . Uniform loads shown below cover a broad range of applications . It may be possible
to exceed these loads by analyzing a specific application using FASTBeam software .
For cases with cantilevers or point loads, use FASTBeam software or contact
Georgia-Pacific .
3 . Both live and total loads must be checkedlive load against the Live row and total
load against the Total row . When no value is shown in the Live row, Total load will
govern .
4 . Verify that the deflection criteria herein are accepted by local codes and authorities .
5 . Provide lateral support at bearing points and continuous lateral support along
the compression flange of each joist .
6 . Minimum end bearing length is 13 49 . Minimum intermediate bearing length is 31 29 .
7 . For double joists, double the table values and connect joists per detail F11 .
8 . For proper installation procedures, refer to appropriate sections in this publication .
9 . Table does not include additional stiffness from composite action with glue-nailed or
nailed decking .

A. Engineered lumber must not be installed in direct contact with
concrete or masonry construction per code and shall be used in
covered, dry-use conditions only (moisture content less than 16%).
B. Except for cutting to length and birdsmouth cuts, top and bottom
flanges of Wood I Beam joists shall not be cut, drilled or
notched.
C. Concentrated loads shall only be applied to the upper surface of
the top flange, not suspended from the bottom flange. Contact
Georgia-Pacific for exceptions.
D. When nailing to the wide face of the flange surface, maintain
spacing in the ranges shown below:

( 3 49 for WI joists) and staggered .
2 . 14 gauge staples may be substituted for 8d nails if staples penetrate the
joist flange at least 19 .
3 . Do not use nails larger than those shown above when attaching sheathing
to flanges of Wood I Beam joists .
Example: When using 8d common nails and GPI 20 series joists, space no
closer (min .) than 3 9 o .c . and no farther (max .) than 169 o .c .

Table 720.1(3) of the 2009 and 2006 IBC, and Table 721.1(3) of the
2012 IBC. Several of the details and similar assemblies are provided in
the Gypsum Associations Fire Resistance Design Manual (GA-600-2012).
Additional generic assemblies appear in various APA publications
and in the APA ICC-ES code report ESR-1405. Instead of being
specific to a single manufacturer, generic assemblies are generally
dependent on the product dimensions for wood I-joists, and the
product grades for gypsum board. All Wood I Beam (GPI and WI)
series in this guide can be used in the following common assembly
(WIJ-1.6 from DCA 3).

Building codes may also require that framing assemblies meet certain
noise ratings. The assembly is typically rated for both noise transmission typesairborne (sound transmission class or STC number) and
impact (impact insulation class or IIC number). The higher the
number, the better the noise control. For reference, an STC rating
of 25 would allow normal speech to be heard quite clearly, while an
STC of 50 would limit loud speech to an inaudible range.
All Wood I Beam joist series in this guide can be used in the noise
rated assembly shown here. Many more noise rated assemblies are
in the AWC, APA, and Gypsum Association references listed in the
section above. Further general information on noise rated assemblies
is given in APA Form No. W460 (www.apawood.org/publications).

NOTES:
1 . Hole locations are based on worst case of simple and multiple span conditions with
uniform floor loads of 40 PSF live load and 10 or 20 PSF dead load, and spans from page 6 .
2 . Small holes not greater than 1 .59 in diameter can be placed anywhere in the web, but each
hole must be spaced a minimum horizontal clear distance of 2 times its diameter (but not
less than 19) from any adjacent hole . No more than two small holes can be placed next to
each other and/or adjacent to larger holes following the guidelines in this note . More than
one group of small holes is permitted on a joist, but adjacent groups must be spaced a
minimum horizontal clear distance of 129 .
3 . For holes greater than 1 .59 diameter, minimum clear distance between
a) two round holes is 2 times the diameter of the larger hole
b) a round hole and a rectangular hole is the larger of 2 times the hole
diameter or twice the rectangular hole width
PaGE
4 . For rectangular holes, the longest side may not exceed 75% of a round hole diameter
permitted at that location; i .e ., if an 8 inch round hole is permitted, the longest side of a
rectangular hole centered at that location is 89 x 0 .75 = 69 .

5 . A group of round holes at approximately the same location shall be permitted if they meet
the requirements for a single round hole circumscribed around them .
6 . For joists with more than one span, use the longest span to determine hole location in
either span . For large differences in adjacent span lengths, use FASTBeam software .
7 . All holes shown on this table may be located vertically anywhere within the web;
a clear distance of at least 189 must be maintained from the hole edge to the inner
surface of the closest flange .
8 . For other conditions use FASTBeam software . Analysis using FASTBeam software could
permit larger holes, or holes closer to the supports than shown in this table .
ExaMplE:
Determine the allowable location of a 99 round hole in a 149 deep GPI Series joist which
spans 208 .
Enter the table in the left column and find 149 joist depth, move to the right and find 208
in the joist span column and move across the table to intersect the 99 round hole column .
The nearest allowable location to either bearing is 68-99 .

naiLinG 7
NOTES:
1 . Capacity is for the stated duration of load 100% floor loading 115% roof snow loading .
Connector capacity depends on the model selected, required quantity and size of fasteners
used, and the size and type of connector support . Rect Hdr connector capacities are
based on the lesser value of GP Lam LVL or DF-L/SP (glulam or lumber) headers . SPF web
fillers have been assumed for WI 80, GPI 90, and all double face mount hangers, while DF-L
or SP web fillers have been assumed for all other fasteners through I-joist webs . I-J Hdr
connector capacities assume a one-ply or multi-ply I-joist header with the same series and
depth as the I-joist supported . All nails into the I-joist flange must be 10d x 1129 . Refer to
connector manufacturer for the potential for higher capacities and expanded design
information . Consult a qualified designer when maximum joist reactions exceed connector/
header/fastener combinations . VPA and TMP connectors do not permit increases for
duration of load and capacities are based on SPF wood plates . Clinch nails across grain when
possible .

4 . Bearing stiffeners required for I-joists . Refer to details F13 and F18 .
5 . . Rectangular header assumed . For I-joist header, multiply table value by 0 .86 . Beveled bearing
stiffeners are required . Refer to detail R8 . Maximum slope is 12/12 . A tie strap is required
for all I-joists with slopes of 3/12 and greater . Refer to detail R1 .
6 . TMP connectors may be used for slopes of 1/12 through 6/12 . For greater slopes use TMPH
series connectors with bearing stiffeners .
7 . Nailing key: 10d x 1129 nails are required where only the number of nails is shown . H
column indicates size of nails to connect hanger to supporting header . J column indicates
nails to attach the hanger to the joist . P indicates nails to connect to plate . Fill all nail
holes as required by hanger manufacturer . Clinch all nails that protrude on the back side .
Nails 10d x 1129 are 0 .148 x 1129 long, 10d nails are 0 .1489 x 39 long and 16d are 0 .1629 x
3129 long .

Connection requirements
approved applications
FiberStrong rim board has been tested and approved as a rim
board and starter joist by APA-EWS. FiberStrong rim board can
also be used as a short span, lightly loaded header (over windows,
doors, and vents). The maximum header span is 4 feet. For longer
spans, use GP Lam LVL headers. FiberStrong rim board is not
recommended as a structural joist, rafter, or ledger. Instead,
consider Wood I Beam joists and GP Lam LVL or contact
Georgia-Pacific. GP Lam LVL may be substituted for FiberStrong
rim board in all rim board and rim joist applications shown in this
product guide.
