New APA Nail Schedule For Roofs

Dealen can expect an increase in sales of 8d conmm nails and a decrease in the number of 6d common nails sold with the adoption of new nail schedules by the American Plywood Association.

For most of the country 8d common nails re reconmended for applications where 6d common nails \perc prcviously acceptable. In regions with high wind expcureg such as the Gulf Coast and the F^stem SeaboarG APA rrconunends spacing 8d conmon nails six incbes on cent€r m all roof framing members. Panels over gable ends ue an exception and should be Miled four furches on center on all framing members. Pending changes in wind design rcquirements may lead to use of thicker rcof sbeething in coastal regions, but tbese will be independent of the new nailing recmrmendations.

The recommendations are under consideration in a number of local code jurisdictions.
