End Bearing and Joint Strength of COM-PLY Joists. COM-PLY(Trademark) 20 Report

摘要

COM-PLY joists supported by four common methods were evaluated. These are: by end bearing on wood plates, by ledgers with end notching, by end bearing on metal joist hangers, and by nails only. Results show that end bearing and joint strength of COM-PLY joists proved satisfactory for all four common methods of support.
