NCARB 4 vignettet-Questions

Postby casey » Mon Nov 04, 2013 9:59 am

Hi, All
have some questions.
1.do I need beams on red marked area on lower level (A,B,C)?

I see solutions with beam in "A" but not the other area.
2.Why in "A" not the others?

3.Does "place beam under clerestory" mean the D area, blue rendered area on my solution? Am I right?

Thanks in advance for any comments and clarifications!

A good rule of thumb is to place a beam wherever yellow meets grey, on the lower framing plan. The B & C locations don't need beams, since they aren't carrying joists or other loads from above. A beam is required on the lower framing plan under the clerestory wall location.

Do you mean the blue marked area on my solution? just want to make sure.

Check the program. Don't remember off the top of my head where it is.
