The American Wood Council (AWC) Span Calculator for Wood Joists and Rafters (Span Calc) performs calculations for all species and grades of commercially available softwood and hardwood lumber as found in the 2021 National Design Specification® (NDS®) for Wood Construction.  While every effort has been made to insure the accuracy of the information presented, and special effort has been made to assure that the information reflects the state-of-the-art, neither the American Wood Council nor its members assume any responsibility for any particular design prepared from this Span Calculator application.  · For joists and rafters, most building codes specify a minimum bearing length of 1.5 inches on wood or metal and not less than 3 inches on masonry or concrete.  · Joists and rafters carry only combinations of dead load plus live load (D + L), dead load plus snow load (D + S), or dead load plus roof live load (D + Lr).  The Span Calculator does not address cantilevered joists and rafters, multiple-span joists and rafters, or spliced joists and rafters.  · At least three joists or rafters are installed parallel to one another and spaced not more than 24 inches on-center, with properly designed sheathing attached on the top (compression) edge of each joist or rafter.  · Joists and rafters are oriented to support vertical loads applied to the narrow (1.5 in.  The Span Calculator does not address wind load or seismic load.  · Joists and rafters are single-span with adequate structural support at each end.  · Buildings in regions with ground snow loads greater than 70 psf should not use the prescriptive provisions of the governing building code without approval of the authority having jurisdiction.  A span options calculator allows selection of multiple species and grades for comparison purposes.  Joists and rafter spans for common loading conditions can be determined.  Those using this Span Calculator assume all liability from its use.  Buildings in these high snow zones should be designed in accordance with accepted engineering practice.  These minimum bearing lengths are to be used in the absence of calculated bearing lengths.  Consult the local building code for specific requirements.  thick) face of the member, resulting in strong-axis bending.
