Sill Retrofit Connector SRC The SRC Sill Retrofit Connector has been engineered as a ductile retrofit for older buildings in high seismic zone regions that require additional reinforcement. It can be installed where there is minimal space between the floor framing and top of the foundation wall. The SRC can also be used to reinforce buildings in high velocity wind zones. The two-piece design easily adjusts to foundations of varying thickness and can also be used where the sill plate may not be parallel to the face of the foundation wall. Features: • The flat plate design works without supplemental washers at the anchor bolts • Works with 2x solid-sawn sill plates or larger • Accommodates sill plate setbacks up to 2-1/2" and foundation walls with a sloped face up to 20 degrees. • Easy access to the hex head of the WS6 screws simplifies installation Materials: Channel - 12 gauge, Plate - 10 gauge Finish: G90 galvanizing F1 SRC channel Codes: ICC-ES ESR-3455, FL17244, LA RR 25745 F1 SRC Channel Sill plate Installation: Sill plate • Use all specified fasteners.

All brick veneer walls are drainage w a l l s .

Drainage space The first requirement for a brick veneer wall is a functional drain- age space. A minimum 1 inch of air space, clear of mortar bridg- ing, should be indicated on the drawings. If possible, design the 1 wall system with a 1 ⁄2- to 2-inch air space. A narrow air space can- not be kept clear of mortar extru- sions and mortar droppings. Fur- thermore, it is impossible for a Figure 1. Although brick veneer walls normally require a 1-inch minimum air mason to remove mortar from a space behind the brick, a new insulation and drainage board material used narrow air space with his trowel, in place of the usual sheathing and building wrap allows water to drain without knocking the brick out of without an open space. The vertical leg of the base flashing should be placed behind this material.

Building for High Wind Resistance in Light-Frame Wood Construction
Building for High Wind Resistance in Light-Frame Wood Construction DESIGN GUIDE Building for High Wind Resistance in Light-Frame Wood Construction Meeting the Challenge of High Wind Design Designing a structure to withstand the devastating forces of tornados is one of the greatest challenges a builder can face. There is a common myth that all tornados are so strong that structural failure is imminent, no matter how well a building is constructed. The fact is, weaker tornados rated as EF-0, EF-1 and EF-2 by the National Weather Service statistically comprise 95 percent of all tornados. A home that is carefully constructed, in accordance with current building codes, can withstand these smaller, less violent storms. Stronger tornados rating EF-3, EF-4 and EF-5 are much less common. While it is more difficult for homes to survive these storms, good design details can make a difference, particularly when the structure is located along the outer reaches of the area influenced by the vortex of the storm. The design and construction recommendations in this guide from APA contribute to improved overall performance in the structural shell and focus on good connection details to tie together exterior walls, roofs, and floors. Some of these design recommendations exceed the minimum code requirements and typical APA recommendations. These recommendations are intended for new construction only, although the principles may be appropriate for retrofit applications. The recommendations in this publication may not be appropriate for hurricane- prone regions. In those regions, local building code requirements must be followed. Whether caused by a tornado or severe wind storm, high wind forces follow the load path of a structure.

Framing & Building Basics
Framing & Building Basics Architectural Drawing & Interior Design Introduction to Framing • Once you have your floor plan design, you are now ready to plan for building. • In order to accomplish this, you must know the correct methods needed to properly frame a house. • While this can get extremely daunting in larger homes, in tiny houses it is much simpler. Structural Loads • Before we get started with framing we understand structural loads. • Structural loads are forces that get to applied to structures, e.g. wind, gravity, snow, earthquakes, people etc. • If your house cannot handle such loads your building(s) will collapse. • Structural Loads include dead loads, live loads, environmental loads. Structural Loads • A dead load is the actual weight of the materials used in the construction of the house, e.g. walls, floors, roofs. Fixed and considered permanent. • Live load’s are produced by the use and the occupancy of the building, e.g. people and furnishings. Variable and temporary. • Deflection is the bounce or give in a floor system as a person walks across a room. The stiffer the material the less deflection Wind Load • Lateral pressure may be positive (pushing) or negative (suction forces on the leeward side). • Wind pressure can also produce uplift. Hurricanes • Hurricane prone areas are the coastal areas of the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico where wind speed exceeds 90 mph. • Additional protection is required for exterior glazing where wind blown debris might be a problem. Snow • The IRC (International Residential Code) specifies that the snow load for the roof of a house must support 70 psf.
