Roof Area 2 Factored Wind Load = -26.72 (1.6) = -42.75 psf<br />

Roof Area 3 Factored Wind Load = -16.89 (1.6) = -27.02 psf<br />

Factored Roof Dead Load = 0.9(7 psf) = 6.3 psf<br />

A plane frame truss analysis yields the following axial loads in the members labeled in<br />

the truss model shown.<br />

Member 1 -327.07 lb<br />

Member 2 -345.97 lb<br />

Area 2<br />

Member 3 -417.63 lb<br />

Member 4 -398.72 lb<br />

Member 5 275.58 lb<br />

Member 6 -1.06 lb<br />

Maximum load is in member 3, P = 417.63 lb<br />

V all per No. 8 screw = 165 lb<br />

No. of screws required = 417.63 = 2.54 screws, Use 3-No. 8 screws at each end of strap.<br />

F9 Ridge Tension Strap Design<br />

Calculate the minimum thickness of 1.25” steel strap with 6-No. 8 screws.<br />

T = A (0.6F y )<br />

T = 6(165) = 1320 lb<br />

1320 = [1.25(t)][33,000(0.6)(1.33)]<br />

t = 0.040 in<br />

Use 43-mil strap.
