Notes:

Effective properties incorporate the strength increase from the cold-work of forming as applicable per AISI A7.2.
Tabulated gross properties are based on the full-unreduced cross section of the studs, away from punchouts.
Allowable moment is the lesser of M_al and M_ad. Stud distortional buckling is based on an assumed k_Φ = 0.
For deflection calculations, use the effective moment of inertia.
The effective moment of inertia for deflection is calculated at a stress which results in a section modulus such that the stress times the section modulus at that stress is equal to the allowable moment. AISI S100-07 Procedure I for serviceability determination has been used.

Notes:

Effective properties incorporate the strength increase from the cold-work of forming as applicable per AISI A7.2.
Tabulated gross properties are based on the full-unreduced cross section of the studs, away from punchouts.
Allowable moment is the lesser of M_al and M_ad. Stud distortional buckling is based on an assumed k_Φ = 0.
For deflection calculations, use the effective moment of inertia.
The effective moment of inertia for deflection is calculated at a stress which results in a section modulus such that the stress times the section modulus at that stress is equal to the allowable moment. AISI S100-07 Procedure I for serviceability determination has been used.

JamStud^® Design Example


1. Basis for Tables:

The JamStud^® allowable heights tables on this site cover the following basic load combination for strength determination using the Allowable Stress Design (ASD) Method (IBC 2009/2012 and ASCE 7-05/10):
	D + W_C&C D + 0.6W_C&C	(ASCE 7-05) (ASCE 7-10)

W_C&C is the component & cladding wind load. The Dead Load (D) acting on the stud is assumed minimum and therefore neglected in the tables.

For deflection determination IBC 2009 and IBC 2012-Sec. 1604.3 and AISI-S211-07 Wall Stud Design Standard Sec. A3.1 allow for a reduction factor of 0.7 on the component & cladding wind load (0.7W_C&C).

The "JamStud^® - Allowable Heights" tables are based on the following assumptions:
	4-Way distribution of lateral wind pressure acting on the opening Opening height extends from floor level to the bottom surface of the header Jamb member supports wind pressure from opening, wind pressure from half distance to adjacent stud, and header reaction

The input for the tables include: the JamStud section, the opening width (ft.), the opening height (ft.), the design wind pressure (WC&C, psf), and the specified deflection limit. The output from the tables reflects the allowable JamStud height (ft.-in.) and the controlling design factor, whether it is strength or deflection (“f” denotes strength, “d” denotes deflection). An "*" denotes critical web crippling at support of jamb. The use of stiffening clips at supports typically eliminates the web crippling condition.

2. Design Example:

	Given: Wind Pressure (WC&C)(ASCE 7-05) or (0.6WC&C)(ASCE 7-10) Wall Width Wall Height Opening Width Opening Height Stud Spacing Specified Deflection Limit Typical Stud	= 30 psf = 6.0 in. = 14.0 ft. = 8.0 ft. = 10.0 ft. = 16 in. o.c. = L/360 600S162-43

Bridging (Lateral Bracing) is recommended at a vertical spacing of 60” o.c. with both JamStud flanges connected to the sheathing.

Design Jamb:

Go to the “JamStud – Allowable Heights” table with 6” stud member, 30 psf wind load, L/360 deflection limit, 8.0 ft. opening width, and 10.0 ft. opening height. Possible JamStud selections from table for 14.0 ft. height are 600JAM250-97 (allowable height = 15’ 0”) and 600JAM350-68 (allowable height = 14’ 6”). The alternative with typical 43mil “cee” studs result in a built-up section comprised of (3) 600S162-43 capped by (2) 600T162-43.

Conclusion:

The second option, 600JAM350-68, is a lighter section with a lesser thickness. Use 600JAM350-68 (50ksi) (with design thickness = 0.0713” and Fy = 50 ksi). Allow 2 rows of bridging for the wall (including jamb stud) arranged so that the maximum spacing does not exceed 60 in. (5 ft.).

3. Extra Design Considerations:

Strength determination in the “JamStud – Allowable Heights” tables includes checks for bending and shear capacity values of the stud and a check for lateral end reaction of the stud for web crippling. If tables indicate critical web crippling (denoted with an “*”), you may use a clip at the top and bottom ends of stud to eliminate the web crippling condition.
