About this detail

Cold-formed steel stud bridging utilizes a one-and-one-half-inch horizontal channel bridging member sized to match the steel stud gauge, positioned continuously through stud punchouts. A clip angle matching the gauge of the studs is fastened with two number ten screws to both the bridging channel and the studs, with an optional field weld permitted in lieu of screws. Steel stud bridging is installed at four feet on center maximum where sheathing does not occur on both sides of the stud for the full height, or wherever sheathing and finishes are discontinued.
