SPS 327.20
SPS 327.20 Loads and materials. Every camping unit shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the requirements of this section.
SPS 327.20(1)
(1) Design load. Every camping unit shall be designed and constructed to support the actual dead load and live loads acting upon it without exceeding the allowable stresses of the material. The construction of camping units shall result in a system that provides a complete load path capable of transferring all loads from point of origin through the load-resisting elements to the ground.
SPS 327.20(1)(a)
(a)
Dead loads. Every camping unit shall be designed and constructed to support the actual weight of all components and materials. Earth-sheltered camping units shall be designed and constructed to support the actual weight of all soil loads.
SPS 327.20(1)(b)
(b)
Live loads. Floors and ceilings shall be designed and constructed to support the minimum live loads listed in Table 327.20-1. The design load shall be applied uniformly over the component area.
SPS 327.20(2)
(2) Methods of design. All camping units shall be designed by the method of structural analysis or the method of accepted practice specified in each part of this code.
SPS 327.20 Note
Note: See ch.
NR 116, rules of the department of natural resources, for special requirements relating to buildings located in flood plain zones. Information regarding the elevation of the regional flood may be obtained from the local zoning official.
SPS 327.20(3)(a)(a)
General. Design, construction, installation, practice and structural analysis shall conform to the following nationally recognized standards.
SPS 327.20(3)(b)1.1. Structural lumber, glue-laminated timber, timber pilings, and fastenings shall be designed in accordance with the “National Design Specification for Wood Construction" and the “Design Values for Wood Construction," a supplement to the National Design Specification for Wood Construction, except the provisions of section 4.1.7 shall also apply to reused lumber. Reused lumber shall be considered to have a duration of load factor of 0.90.
SPS 327.20(3)(b)2.
2. Span tables for joists and rafters approved by the department may be used in lieu of designing by structural analysis.
SPS 327.20(3)(b)3.
3. Sawn lumber that is not graded in accordance with the standards under
subd. 1., shall use the NDS published allowable design stresses for the lumber species using grade number 3 when used for studs, stringers, rafters or joists and may use grade number 1 when used for beams, posts, or timbers.
SPS 327.20(3)(c)
(c)
Whole logs. Camping units constructed of whole logs shall conform to ICC 400, Standard on the Design and Construction of Log Structures.
SPS 327.20 Note
Note: This standard requires the minimum log diameter to be 8 inches.
SPS 327.20(3)(d)1.1. All building components shall be fastened to withstand the dead load and live load.
SPS 327.20(3)(d)2.
2. Fasteners shall comply with the schedule listed in Table 327.20-2, except other fastening methods may be allowed if engineered under
s. SPS 327.20 (3).
