Quality results in durability. Anyone in
the new home building market will get a
head start if they adopt the 2004
building code for durability now.
The code will include:
1.All outer wall studs connected with
truss plates.
2.All structural sheathing attached
with screws. screws are now available
with strips for strip gun
drivers)
3.Prime lateral load outer wall
sheathing will be directly under the
drywall.
4.All shell drywall attached before
interior walls are started.
Local contractors will find that larger
than truss subassemblies will slowly
become available at truss
factories using the CAM part of CAD CAM
