Notes: 1. All section properties and strengths are reported per foot of panel width. 2. All section properties and ASD flexural strengths are calculated in accordance with ANSI/SDI C-2011, Section 2.4.A.1; p = Property in positive bending; n = Property in negative bending. 3. Moments of Inertia are calculated at 0.60Fy.

Notes: 1. All construction load spans are calculated using loads and load combinations in accordance with ANSI/SDI C-2011, Section 2.4.A. The 20 psf uniform load is the minimum required construction load. Specific construction operations may require greater construction loads. 2. Bending Moment and Deflection formulae are in accordance with ANSI/SDI C-2011, Appendix A
