- Description
- HUD sponsored the development of the 2000 edition of the Residential Structural Design Guide, a document to assist engineers, architects and other designers in developing resource efficient designs for residential buildings. Because many aspects of residential design typically rely on a prescriptive approach (such as 2x4 studs 16 inches on center) with little regard for the actual structural requirements, the requirements of an "engineered" design is often unfamiliar to engineers and architects. Since the Residential Structural Design Guide was published in 2000, many new building code requirements have been implemented and the understanding of the loads homes experience has improved. Additionally, new products have entered the market that may affect the way homes are designed. This project will serve to update the Residential Structural Design Guide to reflect current research and performance requirements (through added content or revisions).
