					 determines, based on information received from a qualified person who is
					 experienced in structural design, that the structure or portion of the

					 subsection, the design load strength refers to the load bearing capacity of a
					 structural member(s) computed on the basis of the allowable stresses which are
					 assumed in the design.

(1) Trusses and beams shall be braced
					 laterally and progressively during construction to prevent buckling or
					 overturning.

					 shall be plumbed, connected, braced and/or guyed against shifting before
					 succeeding members are erected and secured to it.
(3) The total system shall be adequately
					 braced and stabilized to the foundation, to suitable anchors buried in the
					 ground, or by other equivalent method(s).
(4) Beams, trusses and other material being

Clipped end connections are connection material on the
						end of a structural member which has a notch at the bottom and/or top to allow
						the bolt(s) of the first member placed on the opposite side of the central
						member to remain in place. The notch(es) fits around the nut or bolt head of
						the opposing member to allow the second member to be bolted up without removing
						the bolt(s) holding the first member.
Click

Staggered connections are connection material on a
						structural member in which all of the bolt holes in the common member web are
						not shared by the two incoming members in the final connection. The extra hole
						in the column web allows the erector to maintain at least a one bolt connection
						at all times while making the double connection.
