  1. The allowable loads are based on the use of SPF Grade 2 cross-laminated timber (CLT) material conforming to APA PRG-320.
  2. Installation and fastener schedule in "CLT Panel to Panel Connection" table assumes platform framing, i.e., install vertical leg at bottom edge of CLT wall panel, and horizontal leg on CLT floor panel with 3 7/8 in. min. edge distance.
  3. Allowable loads have been increased for wind or earthquake loading with no further increase allowed. Reduce for other load durations as required by code.
  4. The designer must specify the anchor bolt type, length, and embedment. Allowable load shall be taken as lower of anchorage capacity per designer and table load. See next page for Titen HD Anchorage Values.
  5. See Engineering Letter L-C-CLTABSDPWS for F1 loads calculated in accordance with Special Design Provisions for Wind and Seismic 2021 (SDPWS2021)
  6. Nails: 0.162" x 2 1/2" = 0.162 in. diameter x 2.5 in. long.
  7. Screws: SD10 x 1 1/2" and SD#10 x 2 1/2" = 0.162 in. shank diameter x 1.5 in. long and 2.5 in. long Simpson Strong-Drive® SD Connector screw respectively. SDHR27400 = 0.275 in. shank diameter x 4 in. long Simpson Strong-Drive® SDHR Combo-Head screw.

  1. Allowable anchor capacities have been determined using ACI318- 14 Chapter 17 calculations with a minimum concrete compressive strength (f'c) of 4,000 psi in normal weight concrete.
  2. Load values are for group anchors based on ACI318, Condition B, no supplemental edge reinforcement, ψc,V = 1.0 for cracked concrete and periodic inspection.
  3. Allowable Stress Design (ASD) values were determined by multiplying the LRF D capacities by a conversion factor, Alph a (a), of 0.7 for seismic and 0.6 of wind loads.
  4. Tabulated allowable ASD loads for Wind and Seismic in SDC A&B are based on a wind conversion factor and may be increased by 1.17 for SDC A&B only.
  5. Design loads shall include seismic overstrength factor per ASCE7 Section 12.4.3, as required.
  6. Allowable load shall be taken as lower of anchorage capacity or the connector capacity. Anchors subjected to both tension and shear loads shall be evaluated per ACI318 Section 17.6.
  7. Anchors: THD50400H = 1/2" diameter x 4"diameter long Titen HD(R) Heavy-Duty Screw Anchor.
