Install in accordance with manufacturer's instructions. Joist Spacing: As required by design. Align joist bearing at foundation walls by means of shims or non-setting grout. Locate joists or load distribution member directly over bearing studs at top of bearing walls. Provide web stiffeners at reaction points or points of concentrated loads or where indicated on Drawings. Install joist bridging where indicated on Drawings. Install additional joists under parallel partitions when partition length exceeds one-half joist span and around floor and roof openings that interrupt one or more spanning members, unless otherwise indicated. Install end blocking where joist ends are not otherwise restrained from rotation. INSTALLATION - TRUSSES Install in accordance with manufacturer's instructions. Truss Spacing: As required by design. Install trusses in accordance with Code requirements and truss manufacturer's instructions. Install roof bracing in accordance with truss design. Install trusses with plane of truss webs plumb and parallel to each other, aligned, and accurately positioned. Install each truss directly over bearing stud or load distribution member designed for this purpose. Install lateral supports as required by manufacturer's design. Immediately after installation, install bridging and permanently brace trusses per truss design. Install approved uplift connectors to connect individual truss to wall studs as required by design. PROTECTION Protect installed products until completion of project. Touch-up, repair or replace damaged products before Substantial Completion. END OF SECTION
