Scenario 5

Find the NDS and LRFD published design values and applicable adjustment factors for a floor joist that is sheathed with plywood along its full length. The joists are untreated 2x8 S-P-F No. 3 spaced at 12 in. on center, and the floor system is considered a joint-glued assembly. The loads that are imposed are dead and occupancy live. The joists are supported by metal joist hangers at the ends, and at the center they rest on a 4x10 beam. Wet service conditions over a poorly ventilated crawlspace and normal temperature conditions are to be considered (MC > 19%).
