    Rules of Thumb
    October 19, 2011 SBC Breakfast Moses Structural Engineers Inc.

    CLT design has the feel of concrete Floor span-to-depth ratios 20-30 Roof span-to-depth ratios 30-40 Deflection and vibration control design(not strength) Engineers must consider creep and rolling shear Effective stiffness increases for longer spans
