Question: Use the Wood Design Manual Joist Selection Tables and Serviceability Table (see this page and the next) to aid you in the following design


Use the Wood Design Manual Joist Selection Tables and Serviceability Table (see this page and the next) to aid you in the following design computations (a) Design single supported floor joists for the following conditions. In other words, choose the most optimal joist section for the conditions below. [28 marks] joist spacing= 400 mm joist span = 3.2 m specified dead load = 1.2 kPa specified live load = 4.8 kPa standard load duration dry service condition untreated joists fully laterally supported by subfloor Case 2 system Use S-P-F No.1/No.2 joist width = 38 mm (b) After the construction, and due to a change in use and occupancy, it is now being proposed to increase the specified dead load to 1.4 kPa without changing the specified live load. Check if the new design is feasible.
