initially i looked at table 602.3(3) and saw the above notes and took it as staples can be used but must be a minimum 7/16 crown.
now I'm looking at it and.. doesn't necessarily say staples are allowed for cs-wsp?

I sent an email to the engineer, so i'll hear soon... but what do ya'll think?

Amish builder said it was new to him.
