About this detail

Cold-formed steel framing details show lateral bracing configurations using 400S162-43 members connected to hanger studs and continuous strong backs. The 400S162-43 braces are spaced at four feet on center, unless noted otherwise, with brace lengths exceeding six feet requiring additional member provisions. Connections are secured using two number eight self-tapping sheet metal screws to each hanger, or four number eight self-tapping screws for alternative connections. Spacing for hanger line braces equals twice the hanger length, maintaining a six-inch maximum dimension where specified.
