About this detail

A structural steel column with spray-applied fireproofing is surrounded by a framed gypsum board enclosure. Minimum five-eighths inch, twenty gauge metal studs spaced at sixteen inches on center form the perimeter, with continuous corner bead at all exposed corners. Metal top and bottom runner tracks secure the framing at the floor and four inches above the finish ceiling. Two-inch by two-inch by sixteen gauge metal angle anchor brackets attach to both sides of the column at four inches above the finish ceiling using a minimum of two one-eighth inch powder-driven fasteners with one-half inch embedment. Two parallel #8 self-tapping sheet metal screws connect each runner track to the anchor brackets. Five-eighths inch gypsum board extends to four inches minimum above the finish ceiling.
