1. See pp. 266–267 for Straps and Ties General Notes. 2. Calculate the connector value for a reduced number of nails as follows:

No. of Nails Used No. of Nails in Table

x Table Load

Allowable Load =

Example: CMSTC16 in DF/SP with 40 nails total. (Half of the nails in each member being connected)

50 Nails (Table) 40 Nails (Used)

Allowable Load =

x 4,690 lb. = 3,752 lb.
