Tabulated loads are governed by tests and may not be increased. Refer to Steel Stress Increase for additional information.
Load based on truss steel properties of Fy=50 ksi and Fu=65 ksi. Reduce load direct proportionally for lower steel strength. For example: Truss with 43 mil (18 ga) thickness has a steel properties of Fy=33 ksi, Fu=45 ksi and is connected to 43 mil plate and wall stud. The adjusted allowable load = 550 lbs. x minimum [33/50 or 45/65] = 363 lbs.
