DESCRIPTION
Throughout the world there are great examples of historic wood structuresthat have withstood the test of time and exposure to various climates. Oneof the challenges that code officials and designers face for modifying existingwood structures is determining what design properties to use. This webinarwill address methods used to establish recommended allowable designproperties for structural wood members in existing buildings. Examplesfrom several interesting projects will be presented including buildings underrenovation and waterfront structures such as piers.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1. Understand methods used to identify wood species used as structural members in existing buildings.
2. Understand methods used to visually grade structural wood members in existing buildings.
3. Understand methods used to establish allowable design properties for visually graded lumber in existing buildings.
4. Understand methods used for condition assessment of in-service wood including quasi-nondestructive evaluation methods and equipment. 5

Second – Determine the Grade(Grade Stamps Would Be Nice)
23
TYPICAL BUILDING IN THE NORTHEAST
7-10 POTENTIAL SPECIES4-6 POTENTIAL RAFTER OR JOIST SIZES
10-16 POTENTIAL COLUMN, BEAM OR GIRT SIZES
Technically to grade a wood member you must:
Look at each member full length – close up
Look at all 4 sides and at least 1 end (typically not possible in a building)

A Reasonable ProcessGrade Each Column, Beam and Girt
(Heavy timbers are easier to grade than joists & raftersand there are generally fewer of them than joists & rafters)
(Generally more structurally significant than joists & rafters)(Provide a map showing the grade of each member)
Grade a representative sample of rafters and floor joists(A percentage on each level and a general overview
of the remainder looking for major problems)30

Third – With Known Species & GradeGet Recommended Allowable Properties
from the NDS
35
Allowable Design Stresses for Visual Grades
Lumber – ASTM D-245 (Small Clear Specimen Testing)
(Prior to 1991 all Design Stresses)
ASTM D-1990 (In Grade testing of Full Size Lumber)
(Initiated in 1977 at WWPA – Adopted 1n 1991)
Round Timber Piles – ASTM D-2899 (Small Specimen Testing)
(Some Adjustments Based on Large Tests)

Condition Assessment ToolsEvaluation of Decay
Incipient, Intermediate & Advanced Decay
1. Visual assessment – Intermediate and advanced decay 2. Moisture Meter – Potential for decay
3. Hammering – advanced internal decay 4. Pick test – Surface - incipient, intermediate and advanced decay
5. Resistograph - Internal intermediate and advanced decay 6. Core boring – All levels of decay

“Submerged wood will not rot or decay because of lack of air”
Wrong ,Wrong, Wrong, Wrong !!!!!
