Shaft Wall Assembly at Non-Rated Floor & 2-Hr Shaft with Concrete Turned Down Beam

Description: Intermediate floor transition at shaft. 3-ply CLT cannot be in the shaft wall assembly so the turned down concrete beam provides the transition between floors where no beam is present.

Purpose: Shaft wall assembly at intermediate floors with glulam beam support.

 

Design Notes

  • Reinforced self-supporting concrete turned down beam used to support the shaft wall and maintain rating.
  • CLT floor outboard of shaft wall assembly.
  • Formwork and shoring required to cast turned down concrete beam where glulam beam is not present.

Acoustics:

  • Shaft wall assembly estimated at STC 39-45 depending on layers of gypsum for shaft rating CLT floor 3-ply (3.5″) with 3/4″ acoustic mat and 3″ concrete = IIC 45 & STC 53.

Fire:

  • Can be used to meet any shaft wall rating requirement.
