Re: Jack studs, Lot 13, Estates at Clay West
Dear Mr. Moet:
Following our meeting at this new homc under construction this morning, I have researched
the issue of the need for multiple jack studs underthe hcaders ofthe large doors and windows
on Ihe first floor and in the basement All of/he opening.' have 2 x 12 headers that are
supported by single jack sluds on each end.
Tablc RS02.5 (]) shows the requirements for headers and jack studs for cxterior 1Nalls. A copy
of the table is attached.
In the greal room on the first floor, there are 4-foot openings in a wall that supports a cathedral
ceiling and roof. U11dcmeath the great room are similar openings in the basemcnt According
to the Code, those opcnings could have used 2 x 6 headers with single jack studs; SO these
window openings meet code.
In the nook, there is a 6-1'001 opening in the back wall that supports the floor above, and a 7-
foot- 4-inch opcning in the side wall that does not support the floor above. In the basement
bdow the nook, there is a door in Ihc side wall with a 6-foot- 4-ineh openi.ng. According to Ihe
Code, the 6-1'001 opening in the back wall should have two jack studs, but since thc span of the
joists above is only 11 feet and 4 inches, I believe that the single jack stud is acceptable.
In the library and dining room, there arc 7-1'001- 4-ineh openings for windows in walls that
support thc floors above that have IS-foot spans. With those combinations of faclors, [can not
interpret the Code as allowing single jack studs. [ believe they need doubles.
In the master bedroom, there is a [O-foor- 6-ineh, 3-ply L VL across an opening supporting the
roof above that has a 20-fool span. As 1 intetprel dle Code, that could have been framed with
3,2 x lO's with single jack studs; so that I believe that is within dle Code requiremenL'.

In my opinion the window openings in the back wall of the nook, in the lihrary, and in the
dining room should have douhle jack studs. The other openings are satisfactory.
