Find the ULW in the left-hand column of the table. If the value you have for this load
is not listed in the table, adjust up to the next value given. For example, for
1,250 pounds per linear foot, use 1,400 pounds per linear foot.
Move to the right across this row to either the single- or double-wale members
section. Then locate the wale size being used. The intersecting number is the tie-wire
spacing (in inches) based on the wale size.
EXAMPLE:
Determine the tie-wire spacing (in inches) if the ULW is 125 pounds per linear foot and
4- x 4-inch single wales are used.
