Using span tables as1684 2

AS1684 provides guidance for timber framed construction in non-cyclonic areas. It contains span tables to help size timber members for roofs, walls, and floors based on wind zone and timber grade. Designers should start at the roof and work down, considering load paths and increasing member sizes for longer spans or indirect loads. Span refers to the distance between supports, while spacing is the distance between member centerlines.

Understanding Residential Timber AS1684 Framed Construction Timber Framing Using AS 1684.2 Span Tables
the timber framing standard Currently you should be using the 2006 Edition AS 1684 Residential timber-framed construction
the timber framing standard Provides the building industry with procedures that can be used to determine building practice, to • design or check construction details, • determine member sizes, and • bracing and fixing requirements for timber framed construction in non-cyclonic areas (N1 – N4) AS 1684 Residential timber-framed construction
AS 1684.2 – CD Span Tables Contains a CD of Span Tables (45 sets in all) for wind zones N1/N2, N3 and N4 for the following timber stress grades: Unseasoned softwood: F5, F7 Seasoned softwood: F5, F7, F8, MGP10, MGP12, MGP15, Unseasoned hardwood: F8, F11, F14, F17 Seasoned hardwood: F14, F17, F27
Timber Framed Construction Each set of Span Tables contains 53 separate design tables
Timber Framed Construction Using AS 1684 you should be able to design or check virtually every member in a building constructed using timber framing

AS1684 Scope & Limitations Where can AS1684 be used?
AS1684 Limitations - Physical Plan: rectangular, square or “L”-shaped Storeys: single and two storey construction Pitch: 35o max. roof pitch Width: 16m max. (Between the “pitching points” of the roof, ie excluding eaves) 16.0 m max. W W 16.0 m max.
Width Pitching Point Pitching Point of main roof. of main roof. Pitching Point Pitching Point of verandah or of garage roof. patio roof. Garage Main house Verandah or Patio 16.0 m max. 16.0 m max. 16.0 m max. The geometric limits of the span tables often will limit these widths.
Wall Height The maximum wall height shall be 3000 mm (floor to ceiling) as measured at common external walls, i.e. not gable or skillion ends.
Design Forces on Buildings Suction (uplift) Construction loads (people, materials) DEAD LOAD (structure) Internal pressure LIVE LOADS (people, furniture etc.) Wind Suction DEAD LOAD (structure) (a) Gravity loads (b) Wind loads AS1684 can be used to design for Gravity Loads (dead & live) and wind loads.
Wind Classification Non-Cyclonic Regions A & B only N1 - W28N 100km/h gust N2 - W33N 120km/h gust N3 - W41N 150km/h gust N4 - W50N 180km/h gust
Wind Classification Wind Classification is dependant on : • Building height • Geographic (or wind) region (A for Victoria) • Terrain category (roughness of terrain) • Shielding classification (effect of surrounding objects) • Topographic classification (effect of hills, ridges, etc)
Wind Classification - Simple Reference Geographic Region A Site Location Below top 1/3 Top 1/3 of hill of hill or ridge or ridge Suburban site 1. Not within two rows from • The city or town perimeter as estimated 5 years hence N1 N2 • Open areas larger than 250,000m2 2. Less than 250m from • The sea or • open water wider than 250m 3.Within two rows from • The city or town perimeter as estimated 5 years hence N2 N3 • Open areas larger than 250,000m2 Rural areas

Design Fundamentals & Basic Terminology
Design Fundamentals Battens Roofing NOTE Rafters Ridge beam While you might build from the Ceiling battens Ceiling Bottom – Up Flooring Hanging beams Ceiling battens First floor wall frames You design from the Floor joists Ceiling Lintel Roof – Down Wall stud As loads from aboveExternal cladding can Wall frame Internal cladding impact on members below – so Floor joists start with the roof andFlooring work Bearers down to the ground level or piles Stumps
Design Fundamentals Roof • Understanding the concept of a „load path‟ Load is critical. Loads need to be supported down the building to the ground Indirect Load path due to cantilever • As a general rule it is necessary to increase the timber member size when: – Load increases (a function of dead, live, wind loads) Ground level – Span increases (a function of load paths across openings) – Indirect load paths occur (e.g. cantilevers and offsets) • It is possible to decrease timber member size when: – Sharing loads across many members – Using members with higher stress grades
Load distribution
Loads distributed Loads distributed equally between Points of support. Of the total load on MEMBER X, half (2000mm) will be supported by the beam or wall at A and half (2000mm) will be supported by the beam or wall at B. MEMBER X A B
If MEMBER X is supported at 3 or more points, it is assumed that half the load carried by the spans either side of supports will be equally distributed. MEMBER X A B C Beam B will carry 3000mm Beam AC will carry 2000 mm load Beam will carry 1000 mm of (1000 mm plus the 2000 mm on the other side)
Span & Spacing
Terminology - Span and Spacing Spacing The centre-to-centre distance between structural members, unless otherwise indicated. Joists spacing Joists span (between (centre-line to faces of support mem centre-line) Bearer spacing (centre-line to centre-line) Bearers and Floor joists
Terminology - Span and Spacing Span The face-to-face distance between points capable of giving full support to structural members or assemblies. Joists spacing Joists span (between internal (centre-line to faces of support members) centre-line) Bearers and Bearer spacing Floor joists (centre-line to centre-line)
Terminology - Single Span The span of a member supported at or near both ends with no immediate supports. Single span This includes the case where members are partially cut through over intermediate supports to remove spring. Saw cut Joint or lap Single span Single span Joint or saw cut over supports
Terminology - Continuous Span The term applied to members supported at or near both ends and at one or more intermediate points such that no span is greater than twice another. Continuous Continuous span span NOTE: The design span is the average span unless one span is more than 10% longer than another, in which case the design span is the longest span.
Example: Continuous Span 6000mm 1/3 (2000mm) 1/3 (2000mm) 1/3 (2000mm) The centre support must be wholly within the middle third. •Span 1 (2000mm) Span 2 (3925mm) 75mm 75mm 75mm Span 2 is not to be greater than twice Span 1. This span is used to determine the size using the continuous span tables.
Terminology – Rafter Span and Overhang n r spa ft e Ra n g e r ha Ov Rafter Rafter spans are measured as the distance between points of support along the length of the rafter and not as the horizontal projection of this distance.
Terminology – Wall Construction Loadbearing wall A wall that supports roof or floor loads, or both roof and floor loads. Non-loadbearing walls A non-loadbearing internal wall does not support roof or floor loads but may support ceiling loads and act as a bracing wall. The main consideration for a non-loadbearing internal wall is its stiffness. i.e. resistance to movement from someone leaning on the wall, doors slamming shut etc.
Terminology – Roof Construction Coupled roof Ridge board Rafter Ceiling joist otherwise there is nothing to stop the walls from spreading Rafters & Ceiling Joist must be and the roof from collapsing fixed together at the pitching points Ridge board When the rafters are tied Rafter together by ceiling joists so that they cannot spread the Ceiling joist roof is said to be coupled (Collar Tie) This method of roof construction is not covered by AS1684
Terminology – Roof Construction Non-coupled roof A pitched roof that is not a coupled roof and includes cathedral roofs and roofs constructed using ridge and intermediate beams. A non-coupled roof relies on ridge and intermediate beams to support the centre of the roof. These ridge and intermediate beams are supported by walls and/or posts at either end. Ridge Beam Rafter Intermediate Beam

Typical Basic Roof Shapes • The footprint of a building generally consists of a rectangular block or multiple blocks joined together • Roof shapes are made to Skillion cover the footprint while also providing sloping planes able to shed water Gable (Cathedral or flat ceiling) Hip • Common roof shapes Dutch Hip (or Dutch Gable) used to cover the required area are shown above Hip and valley
Typical Roof Framing Members Rafter Ridgeboard Collar tie Top plate Top plate Underpurlin Strut Strut Ceiling joist Strutting beam
Transferring Loads to Pitched Roofs 3. Rafters – take batten loads and transfers them to the support 2. Battens - take structure below e.g. roofing loads and walls transfers them to the rafters/trusses Support wall 1. Roofing materials - take live/dead/wind loads and transfers them to the battens
Batten Design Batten Batten Typical Process Span Spacing Step 1: Determine the wind classification to factor in wind loads – for the example assume noncyclonic winds (N1 or N2) Step 2: Determine type of roof - tiled roof or sheet Step 3: Determine the batten spacing – typically 330mm for tiles, or 450, 600, 900, 1200mm sheet Step 4: Determine the batten span – this will be the supporting rafter spacing
Batten Design Batten Span Batten Step 5: Look up Volume 2 of AS1684 (i.e. Spacing non-cyclonic winds N1 & N2) and go to the batten span tables Step 6: Choose a table reflecting your preferred stress grade Step 7: Determine which column in the table to select using the previous “batten spacing” and “batten span” assumptions
Roof Batten Design Example Inputs required • Wind Classification = N2 • Timber Stress Grade = F8 • Roof Type = Steel Sheet (20 kg/m2) • Batten Spacing = 900 mm • Batten Span = 900 mm
Roof Batten Size 2006 Simplify table Inputs required A 38 x 75mm F8 • Wind Classification = N2 Batten Is adequate • Timber Stress Grade = F8 • Roof Type = Steel Sheet (20 kg/m2) • Batten Spacing = 900 mm • Batten Span = 900 mm
Rafter Design Scenario - Rafters for a Ridge beam Cathedral Roof Step 1: Determine the wind classification to factor in wind loads – for the example assume noncyclonic winds (N1 or N2) Step 2: Determine dead/live loads on rafters – for the example assume loads are as for a tiled roof with battens e.g. 60kgs/m2 Step 3: Determine the rafter span – for Rafter the example assume a 2100mm Spacing single rafter span Step 4: Determine the rafter overhang which creates a cantilever span adding extra load – for the example assume a 500mm overhang Step 5: Determine the rafter spacing as this determines how much roof loads are shared between rafters – for the example assume a 600mm spacing
Step 6 Look up Volume 2 of AS1684 (N1 & N2) Step 7 Choose a table reflecting your preferred stress grade Step 8 Determine which column in the table to select using the previous “rafter spacing” and “single span” assumptions Step 9 Go down the column until reaching the assumed rafter span and overhang – 2100 and 500mm Step 10 Check the spans work with the assumed roof load of 60kgs/m2 Step 11 Read off the rafter size – 90x45mm
Rafter Design Example Inputs required • Wind Classification = N2 • Stress Grade = F8 • Rafter Spacing = 900 mm • Rafter Span = 2200 mm • Single or Continuous Span = Single • Roof Mass (Sheet or Tile) = Steel Sheet (20 kg/m2)

Roof Member - Load Impacts The loads from roof members often impact on the design of members lower down in the structure. This impact can be determined from the following load sharing calculations Roof Load Width (RLW) Ceiling Load Width (CLW) Roof area supported
Roof Load Width (RLW)
RLW - Roof Load Width RLW is the width of roof that contributes roof load to a supporting member – it is used as an input to Span Tables for • Floor bearers • Wall studs • Lintels • Ridge or intermediate beams • Verandah beams
RLW - Roof Load Width 00 00 30 15 1 500 B Roof Load Widths A are measured on the rake of the roof.
RLW - Roof Load Width
RLW - Roof Load Width x y x y RLW wall A = a RLW wall B = b 2 2 LW RL R W x y a b The roof loads on trusses are distributed equally between walls 'A' and 'B'. A B Trusses
RLW - Roof Load Width Without ridge struts x y RLW wall A = a RLW wall B = b 2 2 * For a pitched roof without * * RL ridge struts, it is assumed W RL that some of the load from RLW RL W RL W W the un-supported ridge will travel down the rafter to x y walls 'A' and 'B'. The RLW's a 1 2 b for walls A & B are 3 increased accordingly. A B

Roof Area Supported
Roof Area Supported EXAMPLE: The STRUTTING BEAM span table requires a ‘Roof Area Supported (m2)’ input. Underpurlin The strutting beam shown A supports a single strut that A/2 B supports an underpurlin. B/2 The „area required‟, is the roof area supported by the strut. This is calculated as follows:- Strut The sum of, half the underpurlin spans either Strutting Beam Strutting Beam Span side of the strut (A/2), multiplied by the sum of half the A B rafter spans either side Roof Area Supported = of the underpurlin (B/2) 2 2

    Design Fundamentals Battens Roofing NOTE Rafters Ridge beam While you might build from the Ceiling battens Ceiling Bottom – Up Flooring Hanging beams Ceiling battens First floor wall frames You design from the Floor joists Ceiling Lintel Roof – Down Wall stud As loads from aboveExternal cladding can Wall frame Internal cladding impact on members below – so Floor joists start with the roof andFlooring work Bearers down to the ground level or piles Stumps
  • 19.
    Design Fundamentals Roof • Understanding the concept of a „load path‟ Load is critical. Loads need to be supported down the building to the ground Indirect Load path due to cantilever • As a general rule it is necessary to increase the timber member size when: – Load increases (a function of dead, live, wind loads) Ground level – Span increases (a function of load paths across openings) – Indirect load paths occur (e.g. cantilevers and offsets) • It is possible to decrease timber member size when: – Sharing loads across many members – Using members with higher stress grades
  • 20.
  • 21.
    Loads distributed Loads distributed equally between Points of support. Of the total load on MEMBER X, half (2000mm) will be supported by the beam or wall at A and half (2000mm) will be supported by the beam or wall at B. MEMBER X A B
  • 22.
    If MEMBER Xis supported at 3 or more points, it is assumed that half the load carried by the spans either side of supports will be equally distributed. MEMBER X A B C Beam B will carry 3000mm Beam AC will carry 2000 mm load Beam will carry 1000 mm of (1000 mm plus the 2000 mm on the other side)

    Terminology - Spanand Spacing Spacing The centre-to-centre distance between structural members, unless otherwise indicated. Joists spacing Joists span (between (centre-line to faces of support mem centre-line) Bearer spacing (centre-line to centre-line) Bearers and Floor joists
  • 25.
    Terminology - Spanand Spacing Span The face-to-face distance between points capable of giving full support to structural members or assemblies. Joists spacing Joists span (between internal (centre-line to faces of support members) centre-line) Bearers and Bearer spacing Floor joists (centre-line to centre-line)
  • 26.
    Terminology - SingleSpan The span of a member supported at or near both ends with no immediate supports. Single span This includes the case where members are partially cut through over intermediate supports to remove spring. Saw cut Joint or lap Single span Single span Joint or saw cut over supports
  • 27.
    Terminology - ContinuousSpan The term applied to members supported at or near both ends and at one or more intermediate points such that no span is greater than twice another. Continuous Continuous span span NOTE: The design span is the average span unless one span is more than 10% longer than another, in which case the design span is the longest span.
  • 28.
    Example: Continuous Span 6000mm 1/3 (2000mm) 1/3 (2000mm) 1/3 (2000mm) The centre support must be wholly within the middle third. •Span 1 (2000mm) Span 2 (3925mm) 75mm 75mm 75mm Span 2 is not to be greater than twice Span 1. This span is used to determine the size using the continuous span tables.
  • 29.
    Terminology – RafterSpan and Overhang n r spa ft e Ra n g e r ha Ov Rafter Rafter spans are measured as the distance between points of support along the length of the rafter and not as the horizontal projection of this distance.
  • 30.
    Terminology – WallConstruction Loadbearing wall A wall that supports roof or floor loads, or both roof and floor loads. Non-loadbearing walls A non-loadbearing internal wall does not support roof or floor loads but may support ceiling loads and act as a bracing wall. The main consideration for a non-loadbearing internal wall is its stiffness. i.e. resistance to movement from someone leaning on the wall, doors slamming shut etc.
  • 31.
    Terminology – RoofConstruction Coupled roof Ridge board Rafter Ceiling joist otherwise there is nothing to stop the walls from spreading Rafters & Ceiling Joist must be and the roof from collapsing fixed together at the pitching points Ridge board When the rafters are tied Rafter together by ceiling joists so that they cannot spread the Ceiling joist roof is said to be coupled (Collar Tie) This method of roof construction is not covered by AS1684
  • 32.
    Terminology – RoofConstruction Non-coupled roof A pitched roof that is not a coupled roof and includes cathedral roofs and roofs constructed using ridge and intermediate beams. A non-coupled roof relies on ridge and intermediate beams to support the centre of the roof. These ridge and intermediate beams are supported by walls and/or posts at either end.

    Transferring Loads toPitched Roofs 3. Rafters – take batten loads and transfers them to the support 2. Battens - take structure below e.g. roofing loads and walls transfers them to the rafters/trusses Support wall 1. Roofing materials - take live/dead/wind loads and transfers them to the battens
  • 37.
    Batten Design Batten Batten Typical Process Span Spacing Step 1: Determine the wind classification to factor in wind loads – for the example assume noncyclonic winds (N1 or N2) Step 2: Determine type of roof - tiled roof or sheet Step 3: Determine the batten spacing – typically 330mm for tiles, or 450, 600, 900, 1200mm sheet Step 4: Determine the batten span – this will be the supporting rafter spacing
  • 38.
    Batten Design Batten Span Batten Step 5: Look up Volume 2 of AS1684 (i.e. Spacing non-cyclonic winds N1 & N2) and go to the batten span tables Step 6: Choose a table reflecting your preferred stress grade Step 7: Determine which column in the table to select using the previous “batten spacing” and “batten span” assumptions
  • 39.

    Rafter Design Scenario -Rafters for a Ridge beam Cathedral Roof Step 1: Determine the wind classification to factor in wind loads – for the example assume noncyclonic winds (N1 or N2) Step 2: Determine dead/live loads on rafters – for the example assume loads are as for a tiled roof with battens e.g. 60kgs/m2 Step 3: Determine the rafter span – for Rafter the example assume a 2100mm Spacing single rafter span Step 4: Determine the rafter overhang which creates a cantilever span adding extra load – for the example assume a 500mm overhang Step 5: Determine the rafter spacing as this determines how much roof loads are shared between rafters – for the example assume a 600mm spacing
  • 42.
    Step 6 Lookup Volume 2 of AS1684 (N1 & N2) Step 7 Choose a table reflecting your preferred stress grade Step 8 Determine which column in the table to select using the previous “rafter spacing” and “single span” assumptions Step 9 Go down the column until reaching the assumed rafter span and overhang – 2100 and 500mm Step 10 Check the spans work with the assumed roof load of 60kgs/m2 Step 11 Read off the rafter size – 90x45mm
