This presentation will provide an overview of the significant changes in the WFCM relative to the previous edition. This article provides an overview of the significant changes in the WFCM relative to the previous edition. A range of structural elements are included such as sawn lumber, structural glued laminated timber, wood structural panel sheathing, I-joists, and trusses.
Using plans from a 2-story residence, participants prescriptively design the structure to resist high wind, seismic, and typical residential gravity loads. Part 1 will provide an overview of appropriate loads to apply to residential structures and work through the roof story design. Part 2 will deal with design of wall and floor systems, including shear wall design and appropriate connections between roof, floor, wall, and foundations to maintain load path.
Attendees will learn to use checklists and detailing summaries to ensure a complete load path is prescriptively designed for the wall and floor systems.

Be familiar with additional resources that are available. Understand the WFCM uses and scope limitations.
Be familiar with the design approaches and referenced standards in the WFCM. Be familiar with specific provisions of the building codes referencing the WFCM. Learn the appropriate high wind, seismic, and snow loads to apply to residential structures based on code-referenced load standards. In general, the framing systems described in the WFCM utilize repetitive member wood assemblies. For a volume license the PDF is licensed to the person in which it is assigned.

Shear Wall Design Examples Several design tools and standards to assist engineers, architects, and building officials with the design of shear walls are available. The limitations of applicability are provided in Chapters 2 wwood 3. Permanent Bracing for Residential Metal-Plate-Connected Wood Trusses In this unit, the basics of permanent bracing design for wood trusses and the importance of a complete bracing system will be presented.
Chapter 3 provides several prescriptive solutions derived from Chapter 2 load requirements. Chapter 2 provides minimum loads buildings within the scope of this document for the purpose of establishing specific resistance requirements. The WFCM provides engineered and fraem design requirements for wood frame construction used in one and two-family dwellings.
This unit will provide a chapter by chapter overview of the WFCM which includes provisions for designing wood frame structures for wind, snow, and seismic loads. Frank Woeste ator e-mail: This option is mobile friendly and compatible with all devices, including mobile tablets and smart phones. These details have been derived from typical code provisions and are included in Chapter 2 for constuction convenience of the designer. Suppliers of building products used in the residential construction and their sales staff may benefit as well by enhancing their knowledge of a code-conforming whole building design.

The WFCM represents the state-of-the-art for design of one- and two-family dwellings for high wind, high seismic, and high snow loads.
Understand hold down design. Line, Philip and Bill Coulbourne. This webinar builds on the three previous Load, Load Path, and Connections webinars to describe how loads must be transferred through the building to reach the foundation system. The local authority having jurisdiction should be consulted to determine whether conversion to a mph basis is permissible. Add to Cart Add to Wishlist.
Prescriptive details for wrcm required lateral and diagonal bracing needed to meet the assumptions of the truss design drawings for residential applications will be reviewed. Browse FAQs for this topic. Shear wall segments are permitted to be offset out-of-plane from the story below by a maximum distance equal to the depth, d, of the floor joists Figure 2where all of the following conditions are met:.
The WFCM includes design and construction for connections, wall systems, floor systems, and roof systems. Chapter 3 provides several prescriptive solutions derived from Chapter 2 load requirements. Due to minimal design information on elevated foundations in the building code, this is intended to provide some design basics that may not be readily available.
He may be reached at bshowalter awc. Attendees will learn to use checklists and detailing summaries to ensure a complete load path is prescriptively designed for the wall and floor systems. More Wood Construction Short Courses. There are several design tools and standards to assist engineers, architects, and building officials with the design of shear walls.
Be familiar with specific provisions of building codes referencing the WFCM. For More Information For more specific information on course content, please contact Dr.
The latter tends to provide more conservative results.
