At Northern California, I don't use Southern Pine too often.
In the "NDS Examples" Example #5 on page 33, the Fb:=1050 psi was used.
However, when I check the NDS Supplement page 38, the Fb is listed for
No. 2 is 1500 psi.
Did he misplace the Ft for Fb?
Southern Pine should have better strength than Douglas Fir. Isn't it?
Please help.
Thanks
