The Awards Committee panel member posts a question in the Education and Training section, once per week at a random time on a random day.
All parts of the question must be answered in one post. You may not post more than once. The first(and only) post counts, get it right the first time.
Do not edit your posts as the Awards Committee can see that time stamp in the edited post…it just makes our sorting it out more cumbersome.
First correct answer (as judged by the question poster, and the award committee) wins. The lucky winner gets one case of “Now that you’ve had a Home Inspection Books” shipped to you. Courtesy of Nick G. Your prize will be shipped to the address on file.

Notches at the ends of the member shall not exceed one-fourth the depth of the member. The tension side of members 4 inches (102 mm) or greater in nominal thickness shall not be notched except at the ends of the members. The diameter of holes bored or cut into members shall not exceed one-third the depth of the member. Holes shall not be closer than 2 inches (51 mm) to the top or bottom of the member, or to any other hole located in the member. Where the member is also notched, the hole shall not be closer than 2 inches (51 mm) to the notch.
I’ll give everyone till tomorrow night to fill in the blank without creating your own verbiage.

Notches at the **ends of the member should not be more than one-quarter of the depth of the member (D/4). Notches located in the outer thirds of the member should not be more than one-sixth of the depth of the member (D/6). **
**Notches in solid lumber joists, rafters and beams should not be longer than one-third of the depth of the member (D/3), and should not be located in the middle third of the span.
I don’t think Your question is not worded correctly if you were expecting the 1st answer.
