QUESTION $1$

Below shown three$-$story building is constructed with $\backslash (38\backslash$times $235\backslash$mathrm$\{$~mm$\}\backslash )$ solid sawn floor joists on all storeys, and $\backslash (38\backslash$times $140\backslash$mathrm$\{$~mm$\}\backslash )$ SPF No$1/$No$2$ bottom and top plates. The third and second$-$storey walls have double top plates and single bottom plates, and the first storey has a double top plate and a sill plate. You are asked to reasonably anticipate the total shrinkage of the building one year after construction when the wood EMC is at $\backslash (8\backslash \%\backslash )$ and if the builder used wood stamped. Calculate the shrinkage when ;

$1.$ S$-$GREEN and a technician using a moisture meter measured MC up to $\backslash (38\backslash \%\backslash )$ in a pile of wood;

$2.$ S$-$DRY Condition

$3.\backslash (\backslash$mathrm$\{$MC$\}-15\backslash \%\backslash )$

$-$ Do you have recommendations to give to the builder? If so$,$ what are they?

Note: Use the Dimensional Change equation provided in the manual and consider changes in all three primary directions. Assume the FSP is $28\backslash \%($following the same solution we did in the class example$).$
