General Information

� Mechanical PropertiesAll Drywall steel studs, track and furring components manufac-tured by Super Stud conform to the requirements of ASTMC645. Additionally, these members are manufactured from steelmeeting the minimum ductility requirements of the AISISpecification for the Design of Cold Formed Steel StructuralMembers. Steel ductility is critical to its formability duringrolling processes and affects the performance of the cutting tipsof screw fasteners used to connect steel framing.

Drywall steel studs, track and furring components are formedfrom steel possessing a minimum yield strength of 33,000 PSI(33 KSI).

1-1/2" Hat Channel, formed from 18 and 16 gage steel, areformed from steel meeting the requirements of ASTM A466,Grade A, possessing a minimum yield strength of 33,000 PSI(33 KSI).

� Protective CoatingDrywall framing products are furnished galvanized in accordancewith ASTM A924 (formerly ASTM A525) or aluminized inaccordance with ASTM A463.

� Base Steel ThicknessThe structural properties and load tables were prepared usingthe following base steel thicknesses:

20 gage: 0.0326 inchStandard (STD) gage: 0.0188 inch

In conformance with the AISI Specification, the actual deliv-ered base steel thickness, individual measurement, must not beless than 95 percent of the values listed above.

� Fire Rated AssembliesSteel framed assemblies finished with gypsum sheathing andwallboard provide one, two and four hour fire resistance ratings.Reference the Fire Resistance Design Manual published by theGypsum Association or Underwriters Laboratories’ FireResistance Directory for specific information on rated wall andceiling assemblies.

Angle Clips are available in standard 2" or 3" leg dimensions.Non-standard angles with varying leg dimensions are also avail-able. Upon request, Angle Clips can be furnished pre-punchedto facilitate screw attachments.

� Furring Channel ClipsFurring Channel Clips are used toattach metal furring channel to 1-1/2"cold rolled channel in the constructionof ceiling grids.

� Flat Strap (FS)Standard Thicknesses Offering: STDand 20 Gage (Flat Strap formed from18, 16, 14 and 12 gage steel availableupon request)Standard Width: 4" & 6" (Customwidths available upon request)Standard Length: 10 Ft

Flat Strap has a variety of uses which include wall bridgingand backer plates to facilitate the installation of handrails andfixtures.

� New! Big Bead® and Super Bead

Big Bead® is a time saver where double 5/8” gypsum boardneeds to be finished. A positive attachment can be achieved with nails or screws.

High Quality Super Bead is used in conventional gypsum wallboard installations.

All our Corner Beads provide a straight, smooth finished surfacefor outside corners of gypsum wall board assemblies while itprotects the corner from abuse and wear after installations.

� Metal Trim Accessories J, U & L Trim

� Drywall Deflection Track (TW)

Steel Thicknesses: 20, 18 & 16 GageStandard Length: 10 FtDrywall Deflection Track is used to provide lateral support to aninterior wall assembly while it accommodates vertical deflectionsof the primary frame. As a result, the stud wall is not subjectedto axial loads resulting from the deflection of the primaryframe due to live loads, shrinkage, etc.

The track is typically furnished with 2" flanges. For applicationsinvolving greater anticipated frame deflection, Super Stud canfurnish flange lengths in excess of the standard 2" offering.

� Knee Wall Bracket(KWB)

Knee Wall Brackets provideoverturning resistance tointerior free standing parti-tions not exceeding 3 ft. inheight.

Use:For the selection ofinterior non-axiallyloaded standard gagestuds, interactingwith gypsum wall-board, subjected touniform lateral load.Select a stud, interms of interior lat-eral load (PSF), spac-ing (Inches O.C.) and Deflection Limit (L/240 & 120), whichprovides an allowable height, equal to or greater than the required.

Notes:1. Tables are reprinted, with permission, from the Annual Book

of ASTM Standards, copyright American Society for Testingand Materials.

2. Limiting heights are based on the results of lateral load testsinvolving the use of studs acting compositely with gypsumwallboard, installed full height to each side of the wall. Theuse of these tables is limited to the selection of uniformlyloaded, simply supported studs not subjected to axial load.

Applicationsinvolving multi-ple spans, can-tilevers, concen-trated loads,etc., should beinvestigated sep-arately.

3. Where studs arerigidly braced ator below maxi-mum height (bysuspended ceil-ing or separate bracing), the overall partition height may beincreased 50 percent.

4. Special height limitations or added bracing may be required forframing used for application of water resistant gypsum backingboard to receive ceramic tile. Consult the board manufacturer'srecommendations for special installation details.

5. 1-5/8" studs with a single layer of gypsum board are recom-mended for braced chase walls and closets only.

Use:For the selection of interior non-axially loaded studs subjected touniform lateral load. Select a stud, in terms of interior lateral load(PSF), spacing (Inches O.C.) and Deflection Limit (L/360, 240 &120), which provides an allowable height, equal to or greater thanthe required.

Notes:1. The use of these tables is limited to the selection of uniformly

loaded, simply supported studs not subjected to axial load.Applications involving multiple spans, cantilevers, concentratedloads, etc., should be investigated separately.

2. Limiting heights assume the stud is braced against minor axis(y-y) rotation by the attachment of minimum 1/2" thicknessgypsum wallboard or sheathing products of equivalentstrength, applied full height to each side of the wall. In applications where the wall is not sheathed full height, eachside, or sheathed on one side only, continuous bridging spacedat intervals not to exceed 5 feet on center, shall be installed.Reductions in allowable bending capacities must be investigatedseparately.

3. Deflections were calculated based on the properties of the studalone (i.e. without consideration of the composite contributionfrom the attachment of gypsum wallboard or sheathing.

4. The web to thickness ratio exceeds 200. Bearing stiffeners arerequired at support locations.

5. The web to thickness ratio exceeds 300.
