For other fastener types, refer to Table 22. It provides the withdrawal resistance for a number of different fastener types
(smooth-, ring- and screw-shank nails; wood screws and vinyl siding nails). Together with the
in the
2006 and 2009 International Residential Codes,
the attachment schedules for any
combination of siding type, continuous wood structural panel sheathing, design wind speed and exposure can be
determined. See
for more information
including wind load tables and a sample calculation.

(a) Withdrawal capacities are based on the duration of load factor of 1.6 for wind applications. Adjustments for wet service and temperature are
normally not required for attachment to the wood structural panel nailable sheathing.
(b) For ring-shank nails, the withdrawal capacities (W) are based on specific gravities (G) of 0.70 in accordance with
and
W = 1380 G
