About this detail

Cold-formed steel framing connects at a wind girt condition across three typical building junctions: at a standard metal stud wall, at glazing, and at a structural steel column. The assembly utilizes a continuous 3-inch by 7-inch by 18-gauge bent plate anchored to a 6-inch by 16-gauge continuous track (600T125-54) using two powder-actuated fasteners at 24 inches on center. Framing consists of 6-inch by 18-gauge studs (600S162-43) spaced at 16 inches on center, secured to the bent plate with two number 10 screws at each stud and one number 10 screw to the track at 16 inches on center. Exterior sheathing, insulation, and wall finishes are coordinated per architectural drawings.
