CHAPTER 23

WOOD

User notes:

About this chapter: Chapter 23 provides minimum requirements for the design of buildings and structures that use wood and wood-based products. The chapter is organized around three design methodologies: allowable stress design (ASD), load and resistance factor design (LRFD) and conventional light-frame construction. In addition it allows the use of the American Wood Council Wood Frame Construction Manual for a limited range of structures. Included in the chapter are references to design and manufacturing standards for various wood and wood-based products; general construction requirements; design criteria for lateral force-resisting systems and specific requirements for the application of the three design methods.

Code development reminder: Code change proposals to this chapter will be considered by the IBC—Structural Code Development Commit- tee during the 2022 (Group B) Code Development Cycle.

2308.6 (Wall bracing), engineering analysis shall be¶

furnished that demonstrates compliance of lateral- force-resisting systems with Section 2305.
