About this detail

A deflection slip track connects the top of the metal stud partition to the structure above using compatible fasteners spaced at twenty-four inches on center with a three-quarter inch clearance. The vertical studs remain free to move vertically within the slip track while secured by screws on each side of the wall. Interior bridging stabilizes the stud framing at intermediate heights. At the base, the bottom track anchors directly to the concrete slab using powder-driven fasteners spaced at twenty-four inches on center with a one-and-one-quarter inch minimum penetration.
