I believe the IRC requires the manufactures specifications for installation to be followed and all the engineered lumber manufactures I have used had "FREE" online calculators that I have used that produce a printout showing pass or fail for the use fore which the homeowner can drop in a note on the plans and supply the printout from the manufacture.
Here is one of the ones I used in my personal project. They are simple to produce the manufactures report if you know the information you are inputting.
As an inspector or plan reviewer not sure how much time you want to spend searching for things like this, therefore require that it be in the submittal.
Mark, though the manufactures span tables might not be in the code specifically, aren't the span tables considered the manufactures installation instructions and does not the IRC direct all product to be installed per the manufactures directions, thus does this not drag the tables in to the code by the IRC requirement?
And by dragging in the manufactures instructions, does that not alleviate the need for an engineers report?
As to the submittal, requiring the applicant to submit copies of the engineered lumber manufactures installation instructions and copies of highlighted tables showing each members call out would seem reasonable to me. They had to review it to draw it, and if my memory serves me right depending on the lumber yard and supplier, they produce full floor plan sets and layouts with the manufactures instruction notes on them that can also be obtained on larger homes.
