1、Designation: D 6513 00 (Reapproved 2005)Standard Practice forCalculating the Superimposed Load on Wood-frame Wallsfor Standard Fire-Endurance Tests1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 6513; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,
2、in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers procedures for calculating thesuperimposed axial load requi

4、e to those wood-frameassemblies for which the nationally recognized structuraldesign criteria is the National Design Specification for WoodConstruction (NDS).21.4 The system of units to be used is that of the nationallyrecognized structural design criteria. For the NDS, the units areinch-pound.1.5 T
