    Connections play a vital role in the performance of light-gaugeframing assemblies. Connectors, clips or framing hardware areused to either make or support cold-formed framing connections. The most common types of connections are rigid( fixed) connections and deflection (movement) connections.Dietrich Metal Framing provides one of the widest selections ofconnectors, clips, supports and framing hardware for just aboutevery rigid or deflection connection. This wide selection ofoptions gives the designer the ability to attain optimalperformance at the most economical costs.

    understanding FRAMINGCONNECTIONS

    Rigid Connectors Rigid connectors and supports are used in a variety of ways to secure cold-formed framingmembers to each other or to the building structure. Some of the most common types ofrigid or fixed connections include joist connections, punched openings, beam/wall connections and bridging, header and truss connections.

    Dietrich Metal Framing provides one of the widestselections of rigid connectorsand supports available. Thisextensive line provides a widearray of options to provide themost efficient load transferpath.

    Design Considerations One of the most important considerations is load transfer. Whensizing a connector, it is important to consider forces in all directions. This could include shear, vertical or horizontal, tension, compression or moments. For the purpose of this catalog,the load capacities are defined by direction as listed below.

    F1 = Shear F2 = Tension F3 = Compression M = Moment or Rotation

    When we developed our extensive line of clips, connectors andframing hardware we did so with two key elements in mind:Provide cost effective solutions that satisfy design and performance requirements and reduce or streamline installation. By partnering with architects, specifiers,designers, engineers and installers, we were able to learn,understand and ultimately develop products and technologiesthat provide highly cost-effective solutions that satisfy buildingrequirements. Many of our products were developed by or inconjunction with framing installers who desperately sought efficient solutions to common framing problems. We delivered.

    FastClip Technology Many of the Dietrich clips are embossed andprepunched to ensure accurate fastener placement and proper clip performance. TheFastClips and Uni-Clips also feature reinforced and stiffened corners that providesuperior design values for maximum performance and economy.

  • 5Easy-to-Read and Clearly Marked Connectors All too often, clips, connectors and supports arefabricated or made from local job shops or onthe jobsite from generic or surplus framing materials, which may or may not be the proper gauge,strength or coating needed to meet specific performance criteria.

    In order to alleviate any liability or performance issues, Dietrich embosses almost every clip, connector or support with easy-to-find andeasy-to-read product identifiers so you can quickly verify that the properclip or connector is being used. When you design or specify by part nameor number, you know youre getting an engineered connector and willeliminate any weak link between design and installation.

    FastClipDeflection

    Screw

    Deflection DistancesDeflection distance is a measure of the maximum vertical distance that the primary structure is anticipated to move due to the imposition and orremoval of live loading. Dietrich deflection productspermit deflection ranging from 1/2" to over 4" based on thespecific product. Each catalog page indicates the range ofdeflection so the designer can easily and economically choosethe correct connector to meet their specific requirements.

    Standoff DistancesStandoff distance is defined as the distancebetween the secondary frame andthe primary frame. The primary frame is the mainbuilding structural supportusually consisting of red ironor concrete. The secondary frame isthe curtain-wall assembly comprised ofcold-formed light steel framing. Thestandoff distance allows for the framerto install the cold-formed framing in atrue line while the structure of the building may vary either in or out or mayvary out of plumb from floor to floor. Dietrichdeflection clips permit or accept standoff fromas little as 1/8" up to 21" inches to accommodate just about every framing condition. Custom products are available to accommodate even greater standoff.

    FastClip Fasteners Many of the Dietrich deflection clips includeour proprietary FastClip deflection screwthat has been specifically designed to providefriction-free deflection. These fasteners feature a smooth shoulder that eliminate drag,binding or resistance that can often occur withcommon fasteners. FastClip deflection screw:

    Ensures friction-free deflection Reduces the potential for over

    tightening

    Eliminates the chance of using wrongfasteners

    Correctly indicates proper fastenerplacement

    No bushings or additional pieces thatfall out, get lost or never get used.

    DeflectionConnectors Deflection or movement connectionsare designed to permit movement of the primary structure of the building without imposingany axial loading onto the exterior curtain wall orinterior head of wall. Movement of the primarystructure may result from thermal expansion and contraction, seismic disturbances, foundation settling or normal head ofwall compression. Deflection connectors are used in awide array of framing conditions including exterior,bypass, head of wall or infill and interior head of wall.Dietrich Metal Framing provides one of thewidest selections of deflection and slipconnections available. Thisextensive line provides awide array of options fromlowest installed costs tolowest unit costs so you candecide what works best for yourparticular situation. Many of the Dietrich

    deflection clips feature FastClip technology. These FastClips areembossed with fastening patterns toensure accurate and proper placement of fasteners. SpecialtyFastClip Deflection Screws are also provided with each clip to ensure friction-free deflection.

  • Screw Connections Self-Drilling Screws are externally threaded fasteners with the ability to drill their own hole andform, or tap, their own internal threads without deforming their thread and without breakingduring assembly. These screws are high-strength, one-piece installation fasteners and are used if theconnection is multiple thicknesses of 33 mil steel or thicker. One of the more common self-drillingscrews is a #10-16 x 5/8 HWH SD, which indicates a 10 diameter shaft, 16 threads per inch, 5/8length, hex washer head self-drilling screw.

    FastClip Deflection Screws Many of the Dietrich deflection clipsinclude our proprietary FastClip

    fastener that has been specificallydesigned to provide friction-freedeflection. These fasteners eliminatedrag, binding or resistance that canoften occur with common fasteners.

    FASTENING OPTIONS

    Connections can be made using a variety of fastening options.It is critical to specify the proper fastener to ensure the properperformance of the connections used in light-gauge (cold formed)steel construction. The most common and widely used connectionmethods include screw connections, welding connections andpowder-driven fastener connections. Each type of connectionmethod has various advantages and disadvantages. Therefore,we provide data for the three most common types so you canchoose your preferred connection method.

    Welded Connections Fillet welds are used to make lap joints, cornerjoints and T-joint connections. As the illustrationsuggests, the fillet weld is roughly triangular incross-section, although its shape is not alwaysa right triangle or an isosceles triangle. Weldmetal is deposited in a corner formed by thefit-up of the two members and penetrates andfuses with the base metal to form the joint.

    Flare welds, including Flare Bevel and Flare V,are used to join rounded or curved pieces.

    A Flare Bevel groove weld is commonly usedto join a rounded or curved piece to a flat piece.

    A Flare V groove weld is commonly used to jointwo rounded or curved parts.

    NOTE: For graphical clarity, the weld illustrationsdo not show the penetration of the welded material.Weld penetration is critical in determining thequality of the weld.

  • 9Yield Strength, Fy/(psi or ksi)Yield strength is the property by which the strength of steel is typicallydefined. The majority of clips, connectors, supports and framing hardwareare manufactured from mill certified, ASTM A 1003 Structural Grade 50Type H (340 MPa) steel. KSI is short for kips per square inch. One kip isequal to 1,000 pounds.

    Protective CoatingsDietrich Metal Framing offers a variety ofgalvanized products that can be selected tomeet the specific requirements of a project.

    Non-structural products have a corrosion resistantgalvanized coating that conforms to ASTMspecification A1003 G40 coating weight orequivalent corrosion protection. This coating is inaccordance with the industry standard coatingrequirements of ASTM C 645. These productscan also be ordered with enhanced coatings forspecial applications.

    Structural Framing products are available with avariety of protective coatings. G60 zinc coatingsmeet the most widely applicable building codesand we are able to provide certified G60 productthat meets the G60 coating weight provisions ofASTM to C 955. Certified G90 coatings are anenhanced option that can be requested for highlycorrosive environments. G60E coatings are aneconomical choice. G60E coatings for structuralproducts will pass the 100-hour salt spray testapplicable to equivalent coatings under ASTMA 1003, but cannot be certified by any supplierto meet the G60 minimum coating standardunder ASTM C 955. The buyer is solely responsi-ble to assure that products purchased properlysatisfy any applicable code or specification.

    Steel Thickness (Gauge)The steel thickness of a connector, clip, support or hanger is referenced in terms of gauge or mils. Thethickness or gauge is a key contributor to the strength of the product.

    Note: All products comply with ASTM standards and Federal specifications as shown in Certification ofMaterials in the back of this catalog. Minimum thickness is 95% of the design thickness per AISI code.The trend today is to refer to steel thickness in terms of mil rather than gauge. This catalog includesboth for ease of use. One mil is equivalent to 1/1000, (0.001) of an inch. The mil thickness measuresthe uncoated base metal material. A 20-gauge stud measuring the minimum uncoated base metal at0.030 inches is 30 mils thick.

    Standards & SpecificationsAll structural properties are developed in accordancewith the American Iron and Steel Institutes (AISIs)Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed SteelStructural Members.

    Metric SpecificationsAt your request, Dietrich Metal Framing will providesoft metric conversions on its products and systems to help specifiers match metric designsizes. In addition, some products are availablewith hard metric dimensions from selected manufacturing facilities.

    WarrantyOur products are manufactured in accor-dance with company standards and/orindustry standards, as applicable. AllDietrich Metal Framing products are covered by our standard warranty which is contained in our Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale and which will beprovided upon request. Generally, we warrant our products will be free fromdefects in material and workmanship at thetime of shipment, subject to the limitationsstated in the warranty. Unless specificallyagreed in writing by us with respect to specific orders, we do not make any warranty of merchantability or fitness for aparticular purpose. The buyer is responsibleto assure that buyer orders the appropriateproduct for any applicable code or specifi-cation requirements.

    NOTICE: Our liability is expressly limited toreplacement of defective products. We shallnot be liable for incidental and consequentialdamages, nor for any loss caused by misuseor misapplication of our products. Any claimshall be deemed waived unless made in writing to us within thirty (30) days fromthe date it was or reasonably should havebeen discovered.

    WARNING: Not All LoadTables are Created Equal

    It is critical that the allowable load tables for clips, connectorsand fasteners are interpreted correctly. Especially when comparing the performance criteria from one companys clip toanother. The allowable load for a clip assembly is governed notonly by the capacity of the clip, but also by the method of attachment to the structure. Some manufacturers provide tablesthat display allowable loads for the clip, while ignoring theattachment to the structure. Unfortunately, when attaching aclip to the structure with pins, screws, welds or concrete anchorsthe overall capacity can often be lower than the publishedvalue. Load tables that ignore the attachment to the structureessentially imply that the clip or connector must be welded toachieve the stated values. More often than not, clips and connectors will not be welded based on the installation costs.

    In order to provide more accurate and realistic data, DietrichMetal Framing publishes its values for multiple attachmentmethods. That way the designer or engineer will have the proper information to correctly determine the appropriate clipor connector and have confidence that all load requirementshave been satisfied. As an example, the tabulated valuesDietrich provides for the FastClip includes data for 0.145 Hilti* X-EDNI pins and Buildex** #12-24 screws.

    *Hilti is a registered trademark of the Hilti Aktiengeseilschaft Corporation.

    **Buildex is a registered trademark of Illinois Tool Works, Inc.

    Be aware and make sure you arent comparing apples to oranges.

    General NotesThe data contained in this brochure is intendedto be used as a general guideline only and doesnot replace the judgments and designs of aqualified architect and/or engineer. Product,application renderings and photographs areprovided as a tool to show the general intent ofthe framing or finishing application only. Theserenderings or photographs may or may not beapplicable to a specific project. They do notreplace or supercede the architect or engineer ofrecord, ASTM guidelines, national or localbuilding codes or approved industry standards.It is the responsibility of the design engineer toproperly detail project drawings and documentsfor proper clip installation.

    Install products per installationinstructions detailed in this catalog.

    Install all connectors and fastenersbefore load application.

    Do not modify, change or alter any connector in this catalog.

    Do not bend connectors unless they are specifically designed to be bent.Connectors that are not designed to be bent may fracture. Fractured steel will not carry load and must bereplaced. Connectors that are designedto be bent shall only be bent one time.

    Install fasteners per the manufacturersinstructions.

    Load tables have been developed using the following fastener data:

    Hilti 0.145 dia. X-EDNI fasteners Reference 2002 Edition of the Hilti North American Product Technical Guide, page 29 for 3/16 steel

    Hilti Kwik-Con II Reference 2002Edition of the Hilti North AmericanProduct Technical Guide, page 180

    #10-16 Screws As applicable,capacities calculated according to the AISI North American Specificationfor the Design of Cold-Formed SteelMembers. The ultimate nominal screw shear capacity must be 1400# or greater.

    Tabular footnotes must be followed and supercede general notes when in conflict.

    Fasteners other that those specified may be substituted with the approval of the engineer of record

    Allowable loads and material data listed in this catalog supercedes allinformation in previous publications

    Allowable loads, in some cases, havebeen increased 1/3rd per allowablecodes. It is important to verify that the actual installation meets therequirements to allow the 1/3rdincrease. If not the engineer of recordshould adjust the loads down.

    Listed loads are the maximummonotonic design loads to be applied to the connection based on testing or calculations. Load tables have been developed using Allowable Stress Design methodologies.

    Allowable loads are the maximum forcesapplied in one direction only. When loadsare applied in multiple directions theengineer of record is responsible toverify the maximum capabilities basedon an appropriate interaction equation

    Where maximum movements (deflections) are specified they are the total movement in both directions. The fastener positioning and size will affect the amount of allowable movement.

    Dietrich Metal Framing strongly recommendsthe following language be included in plansand specifications: Dietrich Metal Framing con-nectors were utilized in developing the plansand specifications for this project. Before substi-tuting another brand, the engineer of recordmust verify the load capacities and approve thesubstitution in writing.

    Dietrich Metal Framing reserves the rightto change or modify the information and tech-nical data contained in this catalog withoutprior notice or obligation. The informationin this catalog supercedes all previously pub-lished data. Products and systems may beimproved and/or changed after this catalog isprinted.

    Dietrich Fast Top Clips are used in head-of-wall deflectionconditions for in-fill curtain wall assemblies to provide forvertical movement. These clips are used in place of or incombination with deflection track. They also make apositive attachment and do not require bridging installedcontinuously throughout the upper most punchouts. TheFast Top clip connectors can be attached to the undersideof structural members, concrete decks or floorassemblies. Studs must be cut less than fullheight to enable vertical movement up to 2-1/2" (1-1/4" up and down). Fast Top Clipsinstall quickly with welds, screws or poweractuated fasteners. FastClip deflectionscrews are used to attach the clip to thecold-formed framing and to ensurefrictionless deflection. These clips are alsoembossed with fastening patterns to ensureaccurate placement of fasteners.

    InstallationInstall long leg track and metal studs, utilizing Spazzer

    Bars to position and rigidly hold studs without fasteners inthe head track. The Spazzer 9200 Bars are passed throughthe upper stud knockouts (must be within 12" of the headtrack) and rotated 90 to position, engaging each side ofthe knockout. Spazzer Bars should not be spaced morethan 5'-0" on center and should not be used with studswider than 6".

    U.S. Patent No. 5, 784, 850 and 6, 021, 618

    Dietrich Spazzer 9200 is a prenotched, 20-gauge,galvanized steel spacer bar engineered to handle deflectionat the head track of interior, nonload-bearing,nonstructural stud walls. The prenotched slots andgripping power of the 50-inch bar holds studs into a rigid,accurately laid out gridwork that has excellent resistance tostud rotation and displacement. The Spazzer 9200 spacerbar saves time and material by eliminating the cost ofcustom head tracks and the time required to fasten andremove screws or layout stud spacing at the deck. Hangingdrywall is also faster and easier because the Spazzer 9200spacer bar eliminates the bow that often occurs in tallinterior studs.

    The TradeReady Spazzer 5400 prenotched, 16-gauge,galvanized steel spacer and bridging bar is engineered tofacilitate the rapid erection of exterior deflection wallframing. Before the Spazzer 5400 Bridging Bar, deflectionat the head track was addressed with a variety of systemsincluding double track, proprietary tracks, deep leg trackwith cold rolled channel, clip angles or welds, solid blocksand metal strap across the face of the studs or by fasteningthe studs to the top track and removing the screws prior toinstalling the wall sheathing.

    The prenotched slots and gripping power of the 50-inchSpazzer 5400 bridging bar assembles steel studs into arigid, accurate gridwork that allows for deflection andprovides excellent resistance to stud rotation anddisplacement without the use of mechanical attachmentsand welding equipment.
