STEEL STUD AND TRACK FOR DRYWALL PARTITIONS

TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE SAVINGS IN TIME AND MONEY OFFERED BY STEEL STUD CONSTRUCTION.

A FEW OF THE MANY BENEFITS ARE:

  • steel studs are manufactured to exact size requirements.
  • steel studs are pre-punched for services
  • steel studs do not warp, eliminating nail popping
  • steel is non-combustible
  • steel studs and track partitions are lightweight and extremely fast to install

METRIC 41 mm 64 mm 92 mm 152 mm

INTERIOR NON-COMPOSITE LIMITING WALL HEIGHT TABLE

Notes:

  • Studs are 0.0179 in. base steel thickness.
  • Limiting heights are based on continuous support of each flange over the full height of the stud.
  • Heights based on steel properties only,calculated in accordance with CSA-S136-2002.
