Problem 1a
How many board feet of base/top plates and studs are needed to construct the walls shown in
Figure 1A. The walls are constructed of 2x45 with the exterior walls being sheathed with 7/16
inch OSB. The walls bear on a concrete floor. Use Figures 1A as supplement diagrams to aid in
your estimate. Assume all corners of exterior and interior walls have (3) studs nailed together.

Pr 2a
You have been given the task to verify ifthe ridge beam is adequate for the loading provided.
(2) Calculate if the selected ridge beam meets the design criteria with span found between
bearing points of as seen between post to post footing. The requirements for the design are for
bending and shear stress capacities to be within 90%,
Governing load case is Wor + Wu, whereby DL = 18 psf & LL = 20 psf
‘The material properties of dimension lumber members to be used are:
E=1.6x 10° psi, Fy = 180 psi, & Fy = 900 psi
Governing Deflection ratio is L/240, whereby
Uniform loading deflection formula at mid-span is Sw!'/(384ED)
(b) How many 4-foot by 8-foot sheets of 5/8 inch OSB are needed to sheet the outside roof plane
found in Figure 2A. Use Figure as supplement diagrams toab Qt Pre axto Wg

Problem 3a
Determine the volume of concrete in cubic yards, the lineal feet of forms, and the rebar needed
(in tons) to complete the footings and slab shown in Figure 3A. Include 5% waste in the
calculated volume of concrete, and express the volume in quarter-yard increments. Provide 3
inches of cover for the rebar in the footings. The continuous rebar is purchased in 40-foot
lengths is lapped (horizontally) 16 inches.fe" 0. s2%e.e. p11"
