Advantages of Timber Frame Construction
• Sustainable construction
• Speed of construction
• Dry envelope so finishing trades can start earlier
• With production of engineered lumber smaller sections of wood can be used in manufacture of sections

Racking Load on First Floor Wall from Wind on Gable Wall
(a) Area of gable wall transferring wind load to front racking wall
(b) Diaphragm action of roof trusses and ceiling transferring wind on gable wall to front and rear walls
(c) First floor acts as diaphragm transferring wind on gable to ground floor front and rear walls
![Page 19: Timber Frame Construction · 2016. 6. 21. · • Construction Problems – Nailing and tie details ... smaller sections of wood can be used in manufacture of sections. Timber Floor](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071611/614add9b12c9616cbc69b156/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• Not enough nails in bracing to act as diaphragm
• Plasterboard and trusses act together
• Easier in Scotland as most roofs sarked with ply/OSB/20mm timber boarding
• Eurocode 5 Clause 9.2.3.2 is more onerous and requires calculations to be undertaken
BS5268-6.1: 1996 Clause 4.5 Horizontal diaphragms
The design method for timber frame walls given in this British Standard assumes that, for the range of dwellings covered, the normal construction of floors and roofs provides adequate diaphragm action, provided that, in the case of intermediate floors, a floor deck or sub-deck is fixed directly to the top faces ofthe joists, or the floor is braced by some other means. In the case of pitched roofs it is assumed that the plasterboard ceiling under the roof, together with the roof bracing recommended in BS 5268-3 is sufficientto transfer applied wind forces to the resisting walls.
Due account should be taken of the eccentricity of the loading in relation to the wall panels providingresistance.
BS5268-3 1998 Standard bracing for rafter and web members of duopitch trussed rafters

Opening in Floor Deck
• Opening at stairwell has effect on diaphragm -internal ground floor wall may need to be sheathed to act as racking wall
• Flooring not laid but upper floor wall plate fixed

Typical Racking Panel
• Diaphragm action of roof and floor takes wind to stud wall
• Wall is sheathed to stop studs toppling and tied down to stop overturning
• CF bracing in steel frame
• Also the sliding of stud frame on underbuilding is to be checked and resisted
• Coefficient of Friction– BS5268 = 0 (but Trada
suggest 0.3)– Eurocode 5 = 0.25

• Design by Consultant was steel purlins supporting roof and spanning on to RHS at window
• This was timber kit as supplied by Timber Kit Manufacturer although their own designer had glulam roof purlins spanning on to glulam posts at windows
• Problem - Hinge formed at window head and no structural continuity between gable window and spandrel panel
