FOUNDATION LEVEL

 

Side Stem Wall  (loaded by roof)

• dimensions
  • sqft
• dead load
  • 8" thick
• live load
• snow load
• wind load
• seismic load

 

End Stem Wall  (not loaded by roof)

•  

 

Side Sill Plate (loaded by roof)

• dead load
  • 2x8 @ 28.52 lb/ft³ = 2.154 lb/ft
• live load
• snow load
• wind load
• seismic load

 

End Sill Plate  (not loaded by roof)

•  

 

Floor Beam

• dead load
  • four 2x10 @ 28.52 lb/ft³ = 10.99 lb/ft
• live load
• snow load
• wind load
• seismic load
• deflection limits  (IBC table 1604.3)
  • L/360 for L = 6 ft x 12in./ft / 360 = 0.2000 in. (beam wouldn't be simply supported every 6 ft, but this should be conservative)
  • L/240 for D + L  (or L + 0.5D if under dry conditions) = 6 ft x 12in./ft / 240 = 0.3000 in. (beam wouldn't be simply supported every 6 ft, but this should be conservative)

need to go back and calculate distributed loads instead of point loads...and consider using load reductions due to larger AT Stem Wall Under Side Wall loads PD = 108.9 lb (from rafter) + 110.1 lb (from second-floor ceiling joist) + 86.40 lb (from second-floor exterior side wall) + 86.4 lb (from first-floor exterior side wall) + 104.5 lb (from second-floor floor/ceiling joist) + 2.748 lb/ft (16 in. x 1 ft/12 in.) (from second-floor rim joist) + 81.20 lb (from first-floor floor joist) + 2.748 lb/ft (16 in. x 1 ft/12 in.) (from first-floor rim joist) PLr = 220.0 lb (from rafter) PL = 110.0 lb (from second-floor ceiling joist) + 440.0 lb (from second-floor floor/ceiling joist) + 440.0 lb (from first-floor floor joist) PS = 396.0 lb (from rafter) Stem Wall Under End Wall loads PD = 86.40 lb (from second-floor exterior end wall) + 86.40 lb (from second-floor exterior side wall) + 2.748 lb/ft (16 in. x 1 ft/12 in.)
