Fastener Rows Placement and Types

How do I determine the number of fastener rows my crate needs? 





Best Answer

Fasteners are placed in rows whose quantity is determined by the width of the material. Fastener placement on junctions is based on the width of all materials. Fastener type is based on materials being used on purpose of connection, such as for cleat attachment versus skids to base. For reference 


As a general rule, a fastener row is assumed for every 2 nominal inches of wood width.
