I understand that we are to consider the largest duct on a given floor.
Could NCARB ever have a plan on the exam where joists vary in size in different rooms?
For example:
In the room through which we are cutting the joist is 24 " deep and the duct is 12" but the room below it has a joist at 36" depth and the largest duct is 20" in the mechanical room. Are we to accommodate for 44" or are we do accommodate for 56"?
Thanks!
