Framing Clarifications Letter
29.~8 Conquest Street
Lot 12, Block 16, Mosaic Subdivision
Timnath, Colorado
CTLIT Project Number: FC07735.151
It is our understanding that the a$-b1Jilt framing of the above structure varied from the design
drawings provided by CTL Thompson (project number FC07735.151, dated 08/08/2020). Studs
below the windows in the stair opening were framed using HF 2x6., wh.ereas .the plans specify 1
¾''x5 ½'' LSL studs at the stairwell. Additionally, a Simpson HU hangerwas·installed where an HUG
hanger was specified ln the "Roof Framing Plan." The flange that should be concealed has been
bent back and end-grain nailed into the carrying member.
Per your request, personnel from our office have reviewed the framing changes. The full height LSL
studs at t.he stairwell are required for out-of-plane wind loading, but only apply to the full height
studs and king studs. The HF 2x6 studs that have been installed as trimmer studs below the
windows· and are not full height. Therefore, the installed studs are acceptable by design and no
changes to the frami11g are required.

At this time, Simpson Specifications C<!n not be found allowing for the bending of a flange on a
hanger. Due to this, the bent hanger is not an acceptable replacement for the specified HUG
hanger. (2) 2X4 min studs shall be installed below the beam at the stairwell in order to provide solid
bearing support. The studs are supported below by the W14x30 steel beam requiring no further
framing addition to support the new stud pack.
