To maintain maximum structural safety certain home
building rules must be followed.
1. Notch joists only in the end quarter - never notch
near the centre. Never notch . out more than one-
quarter of the joist depth. When notching nail a steel
brace of a 2" x 2" piece of wood across the notch.
2. Holes can be cut anywhere along the length of a
joists as long as the holes are centered between the top
and bottom and no closer than 2 inches from the edge.
Hole diameters should be no more than one quarter of
the depth of the joist.
3. When notching studs for pipes, never notch deeper
than two-thirds of the stud depth. In the lower half of the
stud do not notch deeper than one-third without
reinforcing with a steel strap or wood brace across the
notch. In a non-bearing wall, which excludes outside
walls and centre partitions, you can notch the upper
half of the stud to-ha-lf its depth if there are at least two
unnotched Studs left.
