About this detail

A continuous six-inch, sixteen-gauge unpunched runner track acts as wall backing and is fastened horizontally across vertical metal studs. Each stud requires the flange to be cut and bent to receive the horizontal runner track. Three number ten sheet metal screws fasten the runner track to each stud intersection. Additional support is required for bariatric grab bars. Backing must be provided behind toilet accessories, diaper decks, grab bars, handrail brackets, urinal screens, paper towel dispensers, shelving, and wall-mounted equipment wherever shown.
