1) Factored resistances have been increased 15% for short-term loads such as wind and earthquake; reduce for other load durations in accordance with the code.
2) Minimum nail embedment shall be 8 nail diameters (typ).
3) SPT22, SPT24, and SPT44: the two nails fastened to the wide face of the stud must be driven 30° from the perpendicular on the horizontal plane.
