COLUMN JOISTS
Joists at columns that are not framed in at least
two directions with structural steel, are required to
be bolted at the column to provide lateral stability to
the column during erection. Joist bottom chords are to
be extended at columns onto vertical stabilizer plates
to prevent overturning during erection. Hoisting cables
are to remain until both ends of joists are field-bolted
and bottom chords are restrained by column
stabilizer plates.

Design Guide
Joist Girder uplift is calculated by determining the amount of roof area (tributary area) supported by each Joist
Girder panel point. It is applied in the form of a Kip load at each joist bearing location. To calculate Joist Girder
uplift, use the formula and example supplied below. Net uplift equals 10 psf.
((1/2 Near Bay + 1/2 Far Bay) x Uplift in PSF x Largest Joist Space) / 1000
Example: ((20 + 15) x 10 x 4) / 1000 = 1.4 Kips
Joist Girder uplift should be included at the end of the Joist Girder designation 24G7N10.0K1.4

If OSHA holes are required for joist bearing on a Joist Girder, then specify which side requires holes. In the example
shown below, a pair of holes will be provided at 3-11 3/4 (A), from base length at the left end, and then at every
4-0 (N) intermediate panel location on far side as denoted by placing an F in the OH column. Unless otherwise
noted, top chord holes are provided in the standard configuration listed next to the diagram on the Joist Girder bill.
MINIMUM BEARING
Achieving minimum bearing (as per SJI) on lists provided by the customer, is the responsibility of the customer.
The maximum portion of the seat that may hang off of the inside edge of the support, and still allow the member
to achieve minimum bearing, is as follows: 112 for K-Series joists, 2 for LH, DLH-Series joists, and 2 for Joist Girders.
These are the maximum values allowed by SJI and require special design consideration for masonry bearing
conditions. Please refer to SJI specifications provided in the appropriate sections of this New Millennium catalog.
