2 ICC-ES Evaluation Report ESR-1723 Reissued May 2016 This report is subject to renewal May (800) (562) A Subsidiary of the International Code Council DIVISION: METALS Section: Cold-Formed Metal Framing REPORT HOLDER: AEGIS METAL FRAMING, A MITEK COMPANY NORTH OUTER 40 DRIVE, SUITE 110 CHESTERFIELD, MISSOURI (314) EVALUATION SUBJECT: ULTRA-SPAN TRUSS SECTIONS 1.0 EVALUATION SCOPE Compliance with the following codes: 2006 International Building Code (IBC) 2006 International Residential Code (IRC) Property evaluated: Structural 2.0 USES The Ultra-Span Truss Sections are used as components of cold-formed steel truss assemblies. The sections may be used in structures regulated under the IRC, when an engineered design is submitted in accordance with IRC Section R DESCRIPTION Ultra-Span Truss Sections are cold-formed from steel conforming to ASTM A 653 SS Grade 50, Class 1. The steel has a galvanization coating designation of G60 or G90 in accordance with ASTM A 653. Design base-metal thicknesses (uncoated) are shown in Table 1. Truss chord sections are open shapes labeled USC and USD. Truss web sections are W- or C-shaped and are labeled USW and USWD. See Figure 1 for chord section profiles and dimensions, and Figure 2 for web section profiles and dimensions. 4.0 DESIGN AND INSTALLATION 4.1 General: Truss design, assembly and installation must comply with the AISI Standard for Cold-Formed Steel Framing - Truss Design, 2004 edition. 4.2 Chord Members: Section properties for Ultra-Span truss sections used as chord members are given in Table 1A. For chord sections subject to bending, the unbraced length of the compression flange must not exceed 24 inches (610 mm). For chord sections subject to axial compression, the unbraced length of the wider flange must not exceed 24 inches (610 mm). Spans for chord sections subjected to compression must not exceed 6 feet (1830 mm). In accordance with Section A1.1(b) of the 2001 AISI North American Specification for the Design of Cold-formed Steel Structural Members, including 2004 Supplement (AISI- NAS), chord members are designed using a rational analysis with Φ = 0.8 and Ω = 2.0, as applicable. Chord members must be designed in accordance with the provisions of AISI-NAS for point-symmetric sections, with the following modifications: For axial compression strength: P n = A e F n K (AISI-NAS Eq. C4-1 modified) where: A e = A e from Table 1A F n = F n determined in accordance with Section C4.1 of AISI-NAS K = Applicable correlation factor from Table 2 For flexural strength: M n = S c F c K (AISI-NAS Eq. C modified) where: S c = S x from Table 1A for positive or negative bending as applicable F c = F c determined in accordance with Section C of AISI-NAS K = Applicable correlation factor from Table Web Members: Section properties for for Ultra-Span Truss Sections used as web members are given in Table 1B. Member capacity must be calculated in accordance with Chapter C of AISI- NAS, using the section properties given in Table 1B. 5.0 CONDITIONS OF USE The Ultra-Span Truss Sections described in this report comply with, or are suitable alternatives to what is specified in, those codes listed in Section 1.0 of this report, subject to the following conditions: ICC-ES Evaluation Reports are not to be construed as representing aesthetics or any other attributes not specifically addressed, nor are they to be construed as an endorsement of the subject of the report or a recommendation for its use.

3 ESR-1723 Most Widely Accepted and Trusted Page 2 of Installation must comply with the approved plans and the applicable code. 5.2 For each project, complete plans and calculations verifying compliance with this report must be submitted to the code official for approval. These calculations must be prepared by a registered design professional where required by the statutes of the jurisdiction in which the project is to be constructed. 5.3 Uncoated minimum steel thickness of cold-formed members, as delivered to the jobsite, must be at least 95 percent of the uncoated design thickness indicated in Table 1A or 1B, as applicable. 5.4 Recognition of complete cold-formed steel truss assemblies is outside the scope of this report. The design, quality assurance, installation, and testing of the cold-formed steel trusses must comply with the AISI Standard for Cold-Formed Steel Framing Truss Design, 2004 edition, and are subject to approval by the code official. 5.5 Ultra-Span chord sections resisting axial compression have been evaluated for a span between truss panel points of up to 6 feet (1830 mm). Longer spans are outside the scope of this evaluation. 6.0 EVIDENCE SUBMITTED Data in accordance with the ICC-ES Acceptance Criteria for Cold-formed Steel Framing Members (AC46), dated February 2007 (editorially revised April 2008). 7.0 IDENTIFICATION Ultra-Span Truss Sections are identified by ink-jet labeling at 48 inches on center (1220 mm) with the manufacturer s name (Aegis), the minimum base steel thickness (uncoated) in decimal inches or mils, the minimum specified yield strength, the coating grade, the acronym ICC-ES, and the evaluation report number (ESR-1723).
