Abstract: A cantilevered peripheral portion of a light frame construction building, having a peripherally bounded interior, is disclosed. The cantilevered peripheral portion involves two structural engineered wood rim boards each having cavities facing the exterior of the building and joined at their terminal ends at an angle. One of the two structural engineered wood rim boards supports a first group of studs located above, along, and supported by, an upper flange a first of the two structural engineered wood rim boards. At least one supporting wall stud is located beneath a lower flange of a second of the two structural engineered wood rim boards such that a cantilevered overhang configuration is formed between the first group of studs and the at least one supporting wall stud.

Abstract: A peripheral portion of a light frame construction building constructed from structural engineered wood components involves first, second and third structural engineered wood rim boards each having a cavity on an exterior-facing side and a substantially flat interior-facing side, with ends of the second and third structural engineered wood rim boards abutting each other to form a corner, and an auxiliary corner support affixed to, and within the cavities of, the second and third structural engineered wood rim boards.

Abstract: A structural engineered wood rim board corner system for light frame construction involves two intersecting structural engineered wood rim boards each having a cavity on an exterior angle side of the intersection and an auxiliary corner support having two arms, each within a respective one of the cavities, is disclosed. A corresponding light frame construction corner forming method is also disclosed.
