About this detail

A horizontal metal track backing plate notches around continuous cold-formed metal studs to support equipment weighing up to one hundred pounds. The assembly consists of minimum 362S162-33 or 600S162-33 metal studs combined with double metal studs occurring at openings, paired with a 600T162-43 metal track backing plate. Each metal stud connection utilizes four number ten self-tapping pan head sheet metal screws spaced one inch from the top or bottom edge and one inch on center. Wall stud flanges remain continuous through the backing installation. Field personnel must verify the length, mounting height, quantities, and location of the backing plate with the accessory manufacturer, and use number twelve by one and one-half inch self-tapping pan head sheet metal screws for final accessory attachment.
