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. 400 North Link Lane I Fort Collins, Colorado 80524 Telephone: 970-206-9455 Fax: 970-206-9441 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.
