Keeping Standards up-to-date

Australian Standards® are living documents that reflect progress in science, technology and
systems. To maintain their currency, all Standards are periodically reviewed, and new editions
are published. Between editions, amendments may be issued.

Standards may also be withdrawn. It is important that readers assure themselves they are
using a current Standard, which should include any amendments that may have been
published since the Standard was published.

Detailed information about Australian Standards, drafts, amendments and new projects can
be found by visiting www.standards.org.au

Standards Australia welcomes suggestions for improvements, and encourages readers to

notify us immediately of any apparent inaccuracies or ambiguities. Contact us via email at

NOTES:
i) Maximum roof load widths are based on the support of a maximum total sheet roof, framing and ceiling mass of 40 kg/m2. and a maximum tile roof, framing and
ceiling mass of 90 kg/m2. For guidance on roof and ceiling mass refer to Appendix B.
ii) Where studs supporting concentrations of load occur in external walls, they shall be installed in addition to common studs.
iii) For studs supporting hanging beams, the area supported shall be one half of the ceiling area supported by the beam and the size determined fromthe sheet roof
section.
iv) Large stud sizes may be made up by vertical nail lamination as per Clause 2.4.
v) For design parameters refer to Figure 6.13.
vi) Where studs are used for tie-down, the maximum tension load that can be imparted to the stud is 8.5kN per stud or laminate where they are nail laminated.

NOTES:
i) Maximum roof load widths are based on the support of a maximum total sheet roof, framing and ceiling mass of 40 kg/m2. For guidance on roof and ceiling mass
refer to Appendix B.
ii) Where rafters or trusses are supported directly over studs or within 1.5 times the thickness of the top plate from the studs the top plate may be a minimum 35 mm
deep.
iii) Where plates support concentrated loads such as roof beams, struts, strutting beams, hanging beams, counter beams, combined strutting/hanging beams or girder
trusses etc., the load shall be supported directly over a stud(s) designed to carry the load or the plate stiffened in accordance with Clause 6.2.2.3.
iv) Plates may be trenched up to a maximum of 3 mm for studs.
v) Multiple plates shall be nailed together as per Clause 2.5.
vi) For design parameters refer to Figure 6.19.
vii) Where wind uplift forces on rafters or trusses are taken to the substructure, bypassing the top plate, the top plate size may be determined using the tie-down spacing
of “0” in the table.

NOTES:
i) Maximum roof load widths are based on the support of a maximum total tile roof, framing and ceiling mass of 90 kg/m2. For guidance on roof and ceiling mass refer
to Appendix B.
ii) Where rafters or trusses are supported directly over studs or within 1.5 times the thickness of the top plate from the studs the top plate may be a minimum 35 mm
deep.
iii) Where plates support concentrated loads such as roof beams, struts, strutting beams, hanging beams, counter beams, combined strutting/hanging beams or girder
trusses etc., the load shall be supported directly over a stud(s) designed to carry the load or the plate stiffened in accordance with Clause 6.2.2.3.
iv) Plates may be trenched up to a maximum of 3 mm for studs.
v) Multiple plates shall be nailed together as per Clause 2.5.
vi) For design parameters refer to Figure 6.19.
vii) Where wind uplift forces on rafters or trusses are taken to the substructure, bypassing the top plate, the top plate size may be determined using the tie-down spacing
of “0” in the table.

NOTES:
i) Maximum Lintel Spans are based on the support of a maximum total sheet roof, framing and ceiling mass of 40 kg/m2. For guidance on roof and ceiling mass refer
to Appendix B.
ii) For lintels supporting hanging beams, the area supported shall be taken as one half of the ceiling area supported by the lintel and the size determined from the sheet
roof section.
iii) Minimum bearing length = 35 mm at end supports. Subscript values indicate the minimum additional bearing length where required to be greater than 35 mm.
iv) Multiple members nailed together as per Clause 2.3.
v) For roof area supported refer Clause 2.6.5.
vi) Lintels must be used in conjunction with top plates, ledgers and head trimmers.
vii) When lintels are used to their maximun design limits, deflections of up to 10 mm (deadload) or 15mm (live load) may be expected.
viii) The roof area supported by the lintel should only be that proportion of roof area contributing to the concentrated load on the lintel, ie the roof area input for a lintel
supporting a strutting beam should be proportioned according to the area distributed to either end of the strutting beam.

NOTES:
i) Maximum spans are based on the support of a maximum sheet roof mass of 20 kg/m2 plus a total ceiling mass of 12 kg/m2 (including ceiling
joists)and a maximum tile roof mass of 60 kg/m2 plus a total ceiling mass of 12 kg/m2 . For guidance on roof and ceiling mass refer to Appendix B.
ii) Where the depth to breadth ratio exceeds 3:1, G.I. strapping or similar restraint is to be provided to the top edge of the beam at beam ends. Refer to
Clause 7.2.26.
iii) Beam ends may be chamfered to a minimum depth of 100 mm or 1/3 of the beam depth, whichever is greater.
iv) Where hanging beam spans are not the same each side of the strutting/counter beam, the average of the spans may be used.
v) Minimum bearing length = 70 mm at end supports.
vi) Multiple members nailed together as per Clause 2.3.
vii) For design parameters refer to Figure 7.22.

NOTES:
i) Maximum spans are based on the support of a maximum sheet roof mass of 20 kg/m2 plus a total ceiling mass of 12 kg/m2 (including ceiling
joists)and a maximum tile roof mass of 60 kg/m2 plus a total ceiling mass of 12 kg/m2 . For guidance on roof and ceiling mass refer to Appendix B. The
mass of rafters and underpurlins is accommodated in the span calculations.
ii) Where the depth to breadth ratio exceeds 3:1, G.I. strapping or similar restraint is to be provided to the top edge of the beam at beam ends. Refer to
Clause 7.2.26.
iii) Beam ends may be chamfered to a minimum depth of 100 mm or 1/3 of the beam depth, whichever is greater.
iv) Where hanging beam spans are not the same each side of the strutting/counter beam, the average of the spans may be used.
v) Minimum bearing length = 70 mm at end supports.
vi) Multiple members nailed together as per Clause 2.3.

NOTES:
i) Maximum spans are based on the support of roof mass only up to a maximum sheet roof mass of 20 kg/m2 and tile roof mass of 60 kg/m2 . For guidance
on roof and ceiling mass refer to Appendix B. The mass of rafters and underpurlins is accommodated in the span calculations.
ii) Where the depth to breadth ratio exceeds 3:1 G.I. strapping or similar restraint to the top edge of the beam is to be provided at the strutting points and at
beam ends. Refer to Clause 7.2.26.
iii) Beam ends may be chamfered to a minimum depth of 100 mm or 1/3 of the beam depth, which ever is greater.
iv) A minimum initial clearance of 25 mm shall be provided at mid-span between the underside of the strutting beam and the tops of ceiling joist, ceiling
lining or ceiling battens as appropriate.
v) Minimum bearing length = 70 mm at end supports.
vi) Multiple members nailed together as per Clause 2.3.

NOTES:
i) Maximum spans are based on the support of roof mass only for a coupled roof and the combined roof plus ceiling mass for a cathedral roof. For guidance on roof
and ceiling mass refer to Appendix B.
ii) Allowable overhangs are based on a maximum depth of birdsmouth of D/3. Refer Figure 7.28.
iii) Where rafters are not birdsmouthed, the allowable overhang may be increased to 30% of the allowable single span for that member. Overhang shall not exceed
50% of actual backspan.
iv) Overhang limits do not apply where rafter ends are tied back to wall frame.
v) Overhang limits are only applicable where rafter ends are supported by a structural fascia board. Refer to Clause 7.3.13.2.
vi) Multiple members shall be nailed together as per Clause 2.3.
vii) For design parameters refer to Figures 7.26 and 7.27.

NOTES:
i) Maximum Roof Load Widths are based on the support of a maximum total sheet roof, framing and ceiling mass of 40 kg/m2 , a maximum total tile roof, framing and
ceiling mass of 90 kg/m2 and a maximum flooring mass of 40 kg/m2. For guidance on roof and ceiling mass refer to Appendix B.
ii) Studs for internal non-loadbearing bracing walls and partitions (not carrying roof or floor loads) shall be as per Clause 6.3.5.
iii) Edge distances for some sheet bracing materials may require a minimum stud width of 45 mm for joining sheets.
iv) For gable or skillion end studs (not supporting floor or roof loads) refer Clause 6.3.2.5.
v) Large stud sizes may be made up by vertical nail lamination as per Clause 2.4.
vi) For design parameters refer to Figure 6.12.
vii) All stud walls shall be nogged at not more than 1350 mm centres.
viii) Where studs are used for tie-down, the maximum tension load that can be imparted to the stud is 8.5kN per stud or laminate where they are nail laminated.
