EFFICIENT ALTERNATIVE TO KCS JOIST

General Joist
Information
When the approximate locations of concentrated loads are known, the designer has the opportunity to design a more efficient joist.
These joists can be designed to support concentrated loads residing in specific areas defined as “load zones”. With boundaries of
zones defined and the corresponding concentrated load specified, New Millennium can design a more efficient joist.
1. Load zone joists can be designated as either KZ (K-Series) or LHZ (LH-Series) joists. The following design example shows KZ
Design Guide
joists in place of standard KCS joists. The same design approach can be used for LHZ joists in place of standard LH-Series joists.
Economical
2. Shear and moment envelopes are developed for all load cases within the zones and the joists are designed accordingly,
including any stress reversal which may occur.
3. The designer may specify as many loads and corresponding “load zones” as needed. The fewer zones specified, the more
efficient the joist will be.
Ext., K-Series
Top Chord
4. Joist chords and web members will be designed to adequately support all specified load combinations. If a concentrated load
does not occur at a panel point, then a field installed web member must be placed from a panel point to the point of concentrated
load. Alternatively, some portion of the load may be specified as a bending load that may be located between panel points. This
option eliminates the requirement for a field installed web member, at the expense of a larger chord size.
Joist Substitutes
and Outriggers
5. Joist chords will be checked so that bridging utilized for adjacent joists will be adequate for the “load zone” joists.
6. How to specify “load zone” joists: The figure shown below is a typical framing plan. There are two load zones indicated with
hatched lines. The Zone A boundary covers an area 2 feet from the left side to 12 feet from the left side over three joists. The Zone
B boundary covers an area beginning 10 feet from the left side to 17 feet from the left side over 6 joists. Zone A will have a 1000
pound concentrated load which may occur anywhere within the zone. Zone B will have a 2000 pound concentrated load
KCS Joists
occurring anywhere within the zone. The joists not affected by the concentrated loads are designated as 26K200/100. The first
three joists from the top of the plan are affected by Zones A and B and will be labeled as: 26KZ200/100 (A,B). The next three
joists are affected by only Zone B. They will be labeled as: 26KZ200/100 (B). In near proximity with the corresponding framing
plan the load zone information should be listed as follows:
Joist Minimum
Zone A – 1000 lb. 2’ to 12’

Shear
Zone B – 2000 lb. 10’ to 17’

Note that the dimensions are from one end of the framing plan. Actual dimensions may be placed on the framing plan as shown below.
7. Compare the weight of the 26KZ200/100 (A,B) joist to a KCS joist selected to carry the same loads: Determining the shear

and moment envelopes we find that (Mmax = 1077 in. kips and the Max. Shear = 7324 lbs.) the KCS selection would be a

26KCS4 per KCS load table). The KCS joist weighs 16.5 lbs. per foot. The load zone joist design shows that the 26KZ200/100
(A,B) weighs 12.4 lbs. per foot. Multiplying the weight per foot difference (16.5 minus 12.4 equals 4.1) times the length of the joist
(50 feet) reveals that the load zone joist would weigh 204 lbs. less than the KCS joist.
Note: If using LRFD, be sure specify it as such and state whether the specified loads are factored or unfactored.

Joists at columns that are not framed in at least two directions with
structural steel, are required to be bolted at the column to provide
lateral stability to the column during erection. Joist bottom chords are
to be extended at columns onto vertical stabilizer plates to prevent

overturning during erection. Hoisting cables are to remain until both
ends of joists are field-bolted and bottom chords are restrained by
column stabilizer plates.
Where joists do not occur at columns and columns are not framed
in at least two directions by structural steel, the joists on both sides of
column, are to be field-bolted at both ends where constructability

allows. Hoisting cables are to remain until joists are field-bolted
and an alternate means of stabilizing joists is installed.
OSHA has adopted an enforcement policy effective indefinitely,
for column joists or near column joists spanning 60’-0” or less,

The New Millennium standard connection for Joist Girders to columns is 13/16” x 1 1/2” slots utilizing a 5” gage with ASTM A325
3/4” diameter bolts (bolts are by others). In addition to the bolted connection, welds can also be specified if required to transmit
horizontal forces. The final connection shall be made by welding or as designated by the specifying professional.
Stabilizer plates (not sized nor provided by New Millennium) are required on the columns located at the bottom chord of the Joist
Girder to brace the Joist Girder from overturning during the erection process. Welding the bottom chord to the stabilizer plate should

not be done unless required to resist horizontal forces. This should only be done after the dead loads have been applied.
Joists are connected to the Joist Girders by welding except that joists 40’ and longer shall be bolted to Joist Girders.
The Joist Girder bottom chord must be braced so that its slenderness ratio about the Y axis does not exceed 240. New Millennium will
supply bottom chord braces as required by the design.

JOISTS GIRDERS USED AS PART OF A RIGID MOMENT FRAME

General Joist
Information
The design of rigid moment frames using Joist Girders is very similar to that of wide-flange beams. End fixity is achieved by
restraining the rotation at the ends of the Joist Girders. As with wide-flange beams, there are several methods of achieving this fixity,
and for each approach specific design, fabrication, and erection concerns must be considered. With close coordination between
the specifying professional and New Millennium Building Systems, material savings may be achieved without increasing fabrication
or erection cost. In some cases, it is possible to attain savings in several phases of the project.
Design Guide
Economical
Advantages of using Joist Girders as part of a lateral load resistant frame include material efficiencies and a more evenly distributed
diaphragm load path, as well as decreased erection cost. Material efficiencies may be achieved utilizing Joist Girder chords in
continuity moments as well as lateral frame moments. By collecting the diaphragm loads at each frame line, the diaphragm shear
requirements and attachment may be reduced, as compared to using braced frames or shear walls at only a few locations.
Ext., K-Series
Top Chord
TECHNICAL ISSUES
At the top chord, the connection can be problematic since a standard anchorage condition, in which the seat is welded to the
column cap plate, develops an eccentric moment in the top-chord of the Joist Girders. When this eccentric moment becomes large,
it may govern the size of the Joist Girder top chord, or result in expensive chord reinforcement. The best way to minimize the effects
Joist Substitutes
and Outriggers
of this moment is to either design the seat and weldment of the joist and Joist Girder seat angles to the cap plate as an extension of
the column; with sufficient strength and stiffness to absorb eccentric moment from the anchorage point to the top-chord, or to install a
mechanism to tie the Joist Girder top chords together, thereby eliminating the eccentricity all-together. The following details illustrate
this load path eccentricity issue, as well as some common methods used to achieve a more direct load path.

CALCULATING JOIST GIRDER NET UPLIFT

General Joist
Information
Joist Girder net uplift is calculated by determining the amount of roof area (tributary area) supported by each girder panel point.
It is applied in the form of a Kip load at each joist bearing location. To calculate Joist Girder net uplift, use the formula and example
supplied below. The example shown is based on a net uplift of 10 psf and framing as indicated in figure below.
(1/2 Near Bay (ft) + 1/2 Far Bay (ft)) x Net Uplift (psf) x Largest Joist Space (ft) / 1000
Design Guide
Economical
Example: (20 + 15) x 10 x 4 / 1000 = 1.4 Kips

Joist Girder
Achieving minimum bearing as specified by SJI, on lists provided by the Customer is the responsibility of the Customer. The
maximum portion of the seat that may hang off of the inside edge of the support (see figure above), and still allow the member
to achieve minimum bearing is as follows: 1 1/2” for K-Series joists, 2” for LH, DLH-Series joists, and 2” for Joist Girders.
These are maximum values allowed by SJI and require special design consideration for masonry/concrete bearing conditions.

ECONOMICAL LOAD TABLES
General Joist
Information
The following Economical Design Guide Load Tables are provided to aid designers in selecting the most economical joist for a
given span and loading condition. The joist selections shown are listed based on production costs starting with the lowest cost joist
for each span from 10 feet through 240 feet. Refer to following page for definition of “Span”. Bridging and erection costs have not
been considered in the joist selections. The tables include K, LH and DLH-Series joists.
Total load capacities are listed for both LRFD and ASD load conditions. Live loads which will produce an approximate deflection

Economical
of 1/240 or 1/360 of the span are also listed. The tables also include an approximate weight per foot of each joist selection.
The tables have been shaded to indicate the joist selections requiring the installation of bolted diagonal bridging. Designers should
consider erection costs associated with the bridging requirements when making joist selections.
Where the joist designation is shaded RED, SJI requires the row of bridging nearest to mid-span to be bolted diagonal and shall be

completely installed prior to releasing the hoisting cables.
Where the joist designation is shaded BLUE, SJI requires all rows of bridging to be bolted diagonal with the two rows nearest to
the third points completely installed prior to releasing the hoisting cables.
Where the joist designation is shaded GRAY, SJI requires all rows of bridging to be bolted diagonal completely installed prior to

releasing the hoisting cables.
LRFD vs. ASD DESIGN EXAMPLE

For most joist applications, the designer can potentially select a more economical joist by specifying LRFD load combinations.
KCS Joists
For example: Given joist with a 50’-0” span where Dead Load = 20 psf, and Live Load = 30 psf. Spacing between Joists is 6’-0”
(roof application). The required Dead Load = 20 psf x 6 ft. = 120 plf, and the required Live Load = 30 psf x 6 ft. = 180 plf.
LRFD Load Case:
Joist Minimum
Using LRFD load case, the required factored load capacity for the joist is (1.2 x DL + 1.6 x LL) = (1.2 x 120 plf + 1.6 x 180 plf) =
Shear
432 plf. The Economical Load Tables shows that for 50 ft. joist span the designer should choose a joist with LRFD load capacity
of 436 plf. The table also shows that the service Live Load capacity for deflection of 1/240 of span (typical for roof application) is
249 plf >180 plf (required service LL). The most economical joist under LRFD load case is a 30K10 (joist weight = 11.5 plf).
ASD Load Case:
Standard LRFD
Load Tables
Using ASD load case, the required service load capacity for the joist is (DL + LL) = (120 plf + 180 plf) = 300 plf. The Economical
Load Tables shows that for 50 ft. joist span the designer should choose a joist with ASD load capacity of 333 plf. The most
economical joist under ASD load case is a 30K11 (joist weight = 13.1 plf).
The designer should note that a more economical joist design can be selected using LRFD load case.
Standard ASD
Load Tables
This condition is also true when using the published SJI Load Tables. Consider the previous example, where the maximum joist depth
is 30 inches. Based on the LRFD SJI Load Table the 30K10 with a factored-load capacity of 436 plf > 432 plf (required factored
TL) is selected. Based on the ASD SJI Load Table the 30K10 only has a service-load capacity of 291 plf < 300 plf (required TL)
therefore the heavier 30K11 with a service-load capacity of 333 plf > 300 plf (required TL) is selected.
Load/Load and
SP Designations
Again, it is shown that the LRFD load case can potentially allow the designer to select a more economical joist design. The LRFD
design methodology is particularly economically advantageous for conditions with a Design Live Load of less than three times the
Design Dead Load.

on the Steel Joist Institute 45th Edition Standard Specifications – SJI 100-2020.
Joist extensions are commonly furnished to support a variety of overhang conditions. The two TYPES of extensions are pictured
below. The first is the TOP CHORD EXTENSION or “S” TYPE, which has only the top chord angles extended. The second is the
EXTENDED END or “R” TYPE in which the end bearing depth (2 1/2 inches standard) is maintained over the entire length of the
extension. The “S” TYPE extension is so designated because of its Simple nature whereas the “R” TYPE involves Reinforcing of the

top chord angles. The specifying professional should be aware that an “S” TYPE is more economical and should be specified
whenever possible.
The tabulated values are the maximum allowable uniform loads. The “S” and “I” numbers shown in the Load Tables are the Elastic
Section Modulus and Moment of Inertia of the extension (Section) number with which they are associated.

values given in adjacent columns.
In cases where it is not possible to meet specific job requirements with a 2 1/2 inches deep “R” TYPE extension (refer to “S” and “I”
values in the Extended End Load Table), the depth of the extension must be increased to provide greater load-carrying capacity.
Joist Substitutes
and Outriggers
The “S” and “R” extension numbers are intended to be associated with Standard K-Series Joist Sizes of matching Section
Number. When possible, the extension number should be limited to no more than the Standard K-Series Joist Section Number,
for optimum economy.
When TOP CHORD EXTENSIONS or EXTENDED ENDS are specified, the bracing requirements must be considered by
the specifying professional.
KCS Joists
It should be noted that an “R” TYPE extension must be specified when building details dictate a 2 1/2 inch depth is required
at the end of the extension. In the absence of specific instructions New Millennium may provide either TYPE.

for erection stability bridging. Where the span of the KCS joist designation exceeds the span listed, the row of bridging nearest
the joist midspan shall be erection stability bridging. Where “NA” is listed in the column, the KCS joist designation does not require
bolted diagonal erection bridging regardless of span.

SJI Specifications have a history of including minimum shear criteria for design of web members. The minimum shear criteria is
General Joist
intended to address the potential for loading variations due to partial span loading or from minor accumulation of uniformly

distributed loads.
SJI has adopted more stringent minimum shear criteria for open web steel joists under uniformly distributed design loading.
The specification continues to require a minimum shear of 25% of end reaction. Additionally, the SJI member companies have
agreed to conform to shear envelopes defined by 75% of uniform design loads assumed to be partial span loading of any length

Economical
at any location along the joist span, combined with full span loading of the remaining 25% of uniform design loads. The SJI
anticipates formally incorporating this change in the next Specification update.
The new minimum shear criteria for joist design is as follows:
The vertical shears to be used in the design of the web members shall be determined by including all loads, but such vertical
shears shall be not less than 25 percent of the maximum end reaction from the design load combinations.
Ext., K-Series
Top Chord
The web members shall also be designed for a vertical shear of not less than magnitude V:
V = 0.75 ER (1-Xpe/L)2 + 0.25 (ER-2 Xpe ER/L), lbs.
Where:
Joist Substitutes
and Outriggers
ER = End reaction based on the maximum uniform design total load occurring across the full length of span,
not including any other design loads, lbs.
L = joist design length between end reaction working points (Span - 0.33), ft.
Xpe = distance from the end reaction work point, to the panel point nearest this end reaction to which the
web connects, Xpe< L/2, ft.
KCS Joists
Tension web members shall be designed for an axial compression force due to a vertical shear of magnitude V:
V = 0.75 ER (Xpc/L)2 - 0.25 (ER-2 Xpc ER/L) only if V> 0, lbs.

Table of
The following Load Tables indicating the safe factored uniformly distributed load-carrying capacities of LRFD K, LH and
General Joist
DLH--Series Steel Joists are based on the Steel Joist Institute 45th Edition Standard Specifications - SJI 100-2020.
Information
The Load Tables apply to joists with either parallel chords or pitched top chords up to 1/2 inch per foot. If the pitch exceeds 1/2
inch per foot, the Load Tables do not apply. When top chords are pitched, the load-carrying capacities are determined by the
nominal depth of the joists at the center of the span for single-pitched top chords and at ridge line for double-pitched top chords.
Sloped parallel-chord joists shall use span as defined by the length along the slope.
Design Guide
Economical
The approximate joist weights given in the Load Tables may be added to the other building weights to determine the unfactored
DEAD load. In all cases the factored DEAD load, including the joist self-weight, must be deducted from the TOTAL load to determine
Ext., K-Series
the factored LIVE load. The approximate joist weights do not include accessories.
Top Chord
The BLACK figures in the Load Tables represent the TOTAL safe factored uniformly distributed load-carrying capacities.
The TOTAL safe factored uniformly distributed load-carrying capacities of LRFD K-Series Steel Joists shall not exceed 825 plf for
spans shorter than what is explicitly shown in the Load Tables. The maximum prorated RED load shall not exceed 550 plf (the
Joist Substitutes
and Outriggers
TOTAL load-carrying capacity of the joist as given in the Standard ASD Load Tables for K-Series Steel Joists).
*The safe factored uniform load for the spans shown in the SAFE LOAD Column is equal to (SAFE LOAD) / (span). The TOTAL safe
factored uniformly distributed load-carrying capacity for spans less than those shown in the SAFE LOAD Column are given in the
MAX LOAD Column.
The RED figures in the Load Tables represent the unfactored uniform load which will produce an approximate joist deflection of
KCS Joists
1/360 of the span. This load can be linearly prorated to obtain the unfactored uniform load for supplementary deflection criteria
(i.e. an unfactored uniform load which will produce a joist deflection of 1/240 of the span may be obtained by multiplying the
RED figures by 360/240). In no case shall the prorated unfactored load exceed the unfactored TOTAL load-carrying capacity of
the joist as given in the Standard ASD Load Tables.
To solve for an unfactored RED figure for spans shown in the SAFE LOAD Column (or lesser spans), multiply the unfactored RED
Joist Minimum
figure of the shortest span shown in the Load Table by (shortest span shown in Load Table – 0.33 feet)2 and divide by (actual span
Shear
– 0.33 feet)2. In no case shall the calculated unfactored load exceed the unfactored TOTAL load-carrying capacity of the joist as
determined from the Standard ASD Load Tables.
The approximate gross moment of inertia (not adjusted for shear deformation) of a standard joist listed in the Load Table may be
Standard LRFD
determined as follows:

Ij = 26.767(W)(L3)(10-6) in4, where W = RED figure in the Load Table and L = (span – 0.33) in feet

bridging is completely installed. The RED SHADED area extends up through 60’–0”.
Where the joist span is in the BLUE SHADED area of the Load Table, all rows of bridging shall be diagonal bridging with bolted
connections at chords and intersections. Hoisting cables shall not be released until the two rows of bridging nearest the third points
are completely installed. The BLUE SHADED area starts after 60’–0” and extends up through 100’–0”.

Table of
The following Load Tables indicating the safe uniformly distributed load-carrying capacities of ASD K, LH and DLH-Series Steel
General Joist
Joists are based on the Steel Joist Institute 45th Edition Standard Specifications - SJI 100-2020.
Information
The Load Tables apply to joists with either parallel chords or pitched top chords up to 1/2 inch per foot. If the pitch exceeds
1/2 inch per foot, the Load Tables do not apply. When top chords are pitched, the load-carrying capacities are determined
by the nominal depth of the joists at the center of the span for single-pitched top chords and at ridge line for double-pitched top
chords. Sloped parallel-chord joists shall use span as defined by the length along the slope.
Design Guide
Economical
The approximate joist weights given in the Load Tables may be added to the other building weights to determine the DEAD load.
In all cases the DEAD load, including the joist self-weight, must be deducted from the TOTAL load to determine the LIVE load. The
Ext., K-Series
approximate joist weights do not include accessories.
Top Chord
The BLACK figures in the Load Tables represent the TOTAL safe unfactored uniformly distributed load-carrying capacities.
The TOTAL safe uniformly distributed load-carrying capacities of ASD K-Series Steel Joists shall not exceed 550 plf for spans
shorter than what is explicitly shown in the Load Tables.
Joist Substitutes
and Outriggers
*The safe uniform load for the spans shown in the SAFE LOAD Column is equal to (SAFE LOAD) / (span). The TOTAL safe uniformly
distributed load-carrying capacity for spans less than those shown in the SAFE LOAD Column are given in the MAX LOAD Column.
The RED figures in the Load Tables represent the uniform load which will produce an approximate joist deflection of 1/360 of the
span. This load can be linearly prorated to obtain the uniform load for supplementary deflection criteria (i.e. a uniform load which
will produce a joist deflection of 1/240 of the span may be obtained by multiplying the RED figures by 360/240). In no case
KCS Joists
shall the prorated load exceed the TOTAL load-carrying capacity of the joist.
To solve for a RED figure for spans shown in the SAFE LOAD Column (or lesser spans), multiply the RED figure of the shortest span
shown in the Load Table by (shortest span shown in Load Table – 0.33 feet)2 and divide by (actual span – 0.33 feet)2. In no case
shall the calculated load exceed the TOTAL load-carrying capacity of the joist.
Joist Minimum
The approximate gross moment of inertia (not adjusted for shear deformation) of a standard joist listed in the Load Table may be
Shear
determined as follows:
Ij = 26.767(W)(L3)(10-6) in4, where W = RED figure in the Load Table and L = (span – 0.33) in feet

Where the joist span is in the RED SHADED area of the Load Table, the row of bridging nearest the mid span shall be diagonal

bridging with bolted connections at chords and intersections. Hoisting cables shall not be released until this row of bolted diagonal
bridging is completely installed. The RED SHADED area extends up through 60’–0”.
Where the joist span is in the BLUE SHADED area of the Load Table, all rows of bridging shall be diagonal bridging with bolted
connections at chords and intersections. Hoisting cables shall not be released until the two rows of bridging nearest the third points

are completely installed. The BLUE SHADED area starts after 60’–0” and extends up through 100’–0”.
Where the joist span is in the GRAY SHADED area of the Load Table, all rows of bridging shall be diagonal bridging with bolted
connections at chords and intersections. Hoisting cables shall not be released until all rows of bridging are completely installed. The
GRAY SHADED area starts after 100’–0” and extends up through 240’–0”.

Numbers. The format for a joist designation using the SJI Load Table Section Number are 28K9, 36LH12, or 60LH18, for example.
The format for a joist designation using the “load/load” format is ddKtl/ll, ddLHtl/ll, or ddDLHtl/ll where:
dd is the nominal depth (inches) of the joist

tl is the total uniformly distributed load (plf) applied to the joist top chord
Design Guide
Economical
ll is the uniform live load (plf) for which the deflection shall be checked and limited as required by the SJI-100 Specification
Refer to SJI Specification Section 1.4 for the range of permissible depths and spans for each Series.
This “load/load” method provides the advantages of ease of specifying and some economy where the required load capacity falls
Ext., K-Series
Top Chord
between two standard designation chord numbers. However, care and consideration are required to properly communicate the
scope of the total load. In some cases, particularly where seismic loads are involved, a simple designation of the format ddKSP,
ddLHSP, or ddDLHSP may be more appropriate, where “SP” refers to a loading schedule or diagrams.
Consider as an example: 24K250/150 ASD, spaced 5’-0” center to center.

Joist Substitutes
and Outriggers
For this example, the 250 plf total load could represent a dead load of 20 psf and a live load of 30 psf. That represents just one
of several possible load combinations. If it is indeed the controlling downward load combination, then this is a valid designation.
Other combinations of load may control, such as dead load, live load, and downward wind pressure. The specifying professional
shall utilize a designation based on the maximum uniform load resulting from all applicable load combinations or shall clearly
KCS Joists
indicate what additional loads or loading combinations need to be considered by New Millennium.
Consider three examples, all ASD and 5 feet center to center spacing:
Joist Minimum
Example 1: 20 psf dead load, 30 psf live load, 16 psf downward wind
Shear
DL + LL = 50 psf controls 50 psf x 5’-0” = 250 plf TL

DL + 0.75(LL + 0.6WL) = 49.7 psf
Hence, a designation 24K250/150 is adequate and no further instruction to New Millennium is required.
Standard LRFD
Load Tables
DL + LL = 40 psf
DL + 0.75(LL + 0.6WL) = 44 psf controls 44 psf x 5’-0” = 220 plf TL
Thus, the designation 24K220/120 can be utilized.
Standard ASD
Load Tables
DL + LL = 40 psf 40 psf x 5’-0” = 200 plf TL

A designation 24K200/100, based solely upon DL + LL could be utilized, along with a specific instruction
to New Millennium to also consider a downward wind pressure of 16 psf. However, a general reference
to ASCE, or wind load charts in the design loads section of structural contract drawings is not adequate.
Load/Load and
SP Designations
An instruction should be given in the joist notes or on the framing plan.
Note that when seismic loads are present and there are additional load combinations to be considered, a joist loading chart or
schedule provides the detail required for New Millennium to properly construct the required load combinations. A designation
such as 24KSP can be used where “SP” provides an indication that the loading information is to be found in a diagram or schedule.

Weight Tables – Joist Girders
Contents
Table of
The Joist Girders represented in the following Weight Tables are based on the Steel Joist Institute 45th Edition Standard
General Joist
Specifications - SJI 100-2020. The following Weight Tables are also based on the use of 50 ksi maximum yield strength steel.
Information
These Weight Tables are intended to be a tool to assist in the preliminary design and estimate for Joist Girders used in floors and
roofs. All of the JOIST GIRDER WEIGHT values shown are approximate and intended as a guide for the specifying professional.
New Millennium will design for the specific loads of the designation at the required span, and the values for self-weight may vary
from the tabulated values – the tabulated values are not design minimums or maximums. It is presumed that the designated kip load
Design Guide
Economical
includes an allowance for the Joist Girder self-weight, unless noted otherwise on the structural drawings.
There are countless combinations of span, number of panels, kip loads, and Joist Girder depths and the tables do not
represent all available combinations. Interpolation can be used for approximate values when needed between the columns
and rows of the table.
Ext., K-Series
The Weight Tables apply only to Joist Girders with parallel chords. The Joist Girder top chords are considered as being laterally

supported by positive attachment of the supported steel joists to the Joist Girder top chords.
The top (2) rows of figures present the total PANEL POINT LOAD to be applied to the Joist Girder at each joist location for LRFD
(factored) or ASD (unfactored) loading. The JOIST GIRDER WEIGHT values shown in the tables are based on the PANEL POINT
LOAD value including an allowance for an assumed Joist Girder self-weight.
Joist Substitutes
and Outriggers
Joist Girders weighing up to 149 plf are anticipated to have chord angles of 6 x 6 or smaller and shall have a 7 1/2 inch minimum
bearing seat depth.
Joist Girders weighing 150 plf or greater are considered high capacity Joist Girders requiring chord angles of 8 x 8 and shall have
a 10 inch minimum bearing seat depth.
