[Exigences d'évaluation du CCMC] ANSI/APA PRR 410-2021, catégorie C2

De : Conseil national de recherches Canada

Le présent document résume les exigences minimales imposées par le Centre canadien de matériaux de construction (CCMC) pour toutes les évaluations fondées sur les critères énoncés dans le document ci-après. Pour certaines évaluations, et au besoin, des exigences supplémentaires pourraient être imposées par le CCMC, ces dernières étant détaillées dans l'évaluation en question.

Document énonçant les critères d'évaluation

Portée

These evaluations are in accordance with ANSI/APA PRR 410-21, “Standard for Performance-Rated Engineered Wood Rim Boards.” The standard applies to products manufactured from either structural-use panels sawn into rim board dimensions, re-sawn structural glued laminated timber, or structural composite lumber manufactured specifically to meet the performance requirements of rim boards in wood-frame construction.

Grade C2 rim boards meeting the requirements in ANSI/APA PRR 410 have a thickness-based rim board grade of 25.4 mm (1 in.) thick or higher.

The maximum depth of these rim boards is 610 mm (24 in.). 

In accordance with structural performance criteria, “APA Rim Board” is equivalent to Grade C2 rim boards as listed in Table 2.

The rim boards are intended for use in engineered wood joist floor assemblies in dry service conditions only (i.e., conditions where the mean equilibrium moisture content of solid sawn lumber is less than 16%). The rim boards are manufactured to meet the standard and are subject to a third-party certification program accredited by the Standards Council of Canada.

Exigences matérielles

Le titulaire de l'évaluation doit démontrer que le produit satisfait aux exigences suivantes (au besoin, des exigences supplémentaires pourraient être imposées par le CCMC, et ces dernières sont détaillées dans l'évaluation en question) :

The standard prescriptive and performance requirements are summarized below. This standard addresses the following aspects:

  1. Dimensions and dimensional tolerances;
  2. Structural performance:
    1. Horizontal load transfer capacity;
    2. Uniform vertical load capacity;
    3. 12.7-mm-diameter (1/2 in.) lag screw lateral resistance;
    4. Concentrated vertical load capacity;
    5. Edge nailing durability; and
    6. Physical properties (not applicable to plywood panels, laminated veneer lumber, or glulam material):
      1. Thickness swell,
      2. Density, and
      3. Internal bond.

Structural performance

The horizontal load transfer capacity, uniform vertical load capacity, 12.7-mm-diameter (1/2 in.) lag screw lateral resistance, and concentrated vertical load capacity must meet the required mean test values specified in ANSI/APA PRR 410. The design values outlined in Table 2 apply only to engineered wood rim boards meeting the minimum structural performance specified in ANSI/APA PRR 410. Table 2 outlines the design values for engineered buildings. These factored resistance values for limit states design are soft-converted from the allowable working stress design values.

To determine the factored resistances, tests are carried out in accordance with the standard, which also specifies sample preparation. All the samples are assembled and nailed in accordance with the nailing schedule shown in Table 3, which complies with the NBC 2015 requirements.

The nailing schedule in Table 3 was used to prepare the samples to test for the structural performance criteria. It is also the nailing schedule required by the NBC 2015 and should be followed during field installation. Figure 1 graphically displays the nailing requirements.

Edge nailing durability criteria

The mean edge nailing durability of the conditioned samples must be at least 75% of the mean horizontal load transfer capacity of the unconditioned samples.

Physical properties (not applicable to plywood panels, laminated veneer lumber or glulam material)

After conditioning, the mean thickness swell must not exceed 10% and the thickness swell of individual samples must not exceed 12%. The density values and internal bond measurements are used to establish quality control values for the quality assurance use.

Vapour barrier

A 15 ng/(Pa∙s∙m2) vapour barrier must be installed on the interior side to address the requirements of Article 9.25.4.2., Vapour barrier materials, and subsection 9.25.5., properties and position of materials in the building envelope, of Division B of the NBC 2020.
