BYPASS FRAMING SIDE-CLIP CONNECTORS

At Studco, we are dedicated to providing our customers with the best products, however, we cannot manufacture all of them ourselves. We partnered with Simpson Strong-Tie to provide our customers with the best clips and connectors on the market for steel-studs. This is what we are offering:

The SCB/MSCB side-clip connectors are high performance connectors for bypass framing applications designed to reduce design time and overall installed cost. Various anchorage methods have been tested, and the resulting allowable loads eliminate the need to design connector anchorage. The SCB/MSCB can accommodate applications that typically require two parts with a single connector, reducing material and labor cost. These connectors are manufactured in five different lengths to accommodate a variety of stand-off conditions and steel-stud sizes.

The IDCB45.5 drift-clip connector is used to secure bypass stud framing to the edge of a slab. The connector will accommodate 1" of lateral drift in each direction and 1" of upward and downward vertical deflection. Tested load values are provided for anchorage to a steel edge angle using #12 x 1 1/4" Strong-Drive XL Large-Head Metal screws.

Features: • Provides a full 1" of both upward and downward movement• The precision-manufactured shouldered screws provided with the SCB/MSCB connector

are designed to prevent overdriving and to ensure the clip functions properly• Strategically placed stiffeners, embossments and anchor holes maximize connector performance • Simpson Strong-Tie® “No-Equal” stamps mark the center of the slots to help ensure correct

shouldered-screw placement.Material: SCB – 54 mil (16 ga.); MSCB – 68 mil (14 ga.) Finish: Galvanized (G90)

Features: • Horizontal embossments and corner gussets optimize performance in the F2 load direction.• Precision-manufactured shouldered screws provided with the IDCB connector are designed

to prevent overdriving and to ensure the clip functions properly• Simpson Strong-Tie® “No-Equal” stamps mark the center of the slots to help ensure correct

BYPASS FRAMING SIDE-CLIP CONNECTORS

Ideal for high-seismic areas, Simpson Strong-Tie SC connectors are the optimal solution for slide-clip bypass framing. SC clips are often welded to the structure in high-seismic zones, but they also feature anchorage holes so that concrete screws or powder-actuated fasteners can be used to attach the clip to the structure. In addition to anchorage versatility, the SC clips include "No-Equal" stamps at the center of the slots to ensure proper shouldered screw placement. Embossments in the bendline provide increased strength and stiffness in the F1 and F2 load directions, but are positioned towards the center of the clip so that 1 1/2" long welds can be applied at the top and bottom of the clip.SC connectors are manufactured using heavy-duty 10- and 12-gauge steel to provide exceptional resistance to in-plane seismic load.

Features: • The clips come in lengths of 3 1/2", 6" and 8" for use with 3 5/8"," and 8" studs respectively• The maximum stand-off distance is 1" for 3 5/8" studs and 1 1/2" for 6"and 8" studs• Provides a full 3/4" of both upward and downward deflection• Prepunched large-diameter anchor holes accommodate 1/4" -diameter concrete screws like

the Simpson Strong-Tie Titen HD• Prepunched small-diameter anchor holes accommodate powderactuated fasteners like the

0.157"-diameter Simpson Strong-Tie PDPAT or the #12 self-drilling Simpson Strong-Tie Strong-Drive XL Large-Head Metal screw

• Precision-manufactured shouldered screws, provided with SC connectors, are designed to prevent overdriving and to ensure the clip functions properly

Simpson Strong-Tie introduces the SBR and DBR spacer bracers for cold-formed steel construction. These spacer bracers reduce the installed cost of cold-formed steel stud walls by enabling faster stud layout while minimizing the need for bridging clips.

The DBR is used for interior walls to allow for quicker drywall attachment, while the SBR is designed for structural exterior walls. Both products provide bracing along the length of the stud, and for head-of-wall slip conditions. The SBR and DBR also come with prepunched slots that eliminate the need to use bridging clips with on-module studs.

The SBR and DBR spacer bracers come with bracing load data based on assembly testing, thus mitigating risk for designers and maximizing confidence in design specs. In fact, the SBR and DBR are the only spacer bracers on the market with tabulated design values based on assembly tests.

With pre-punched holes for fastener attachment, this L-shaped clip offers time and labor savings on the job. The RCA is available in 16-, 14- and 12-gauge.

JOIST CLIPS

Material: L — 54 mil (16 ga.); S/LS and LS — 43 mil (18 ga.)Finish: Galvanized (G90)

L, LS and S/LS angles are load-rated, providing the correct thickness and number of fasteners for the specifier compared with field-fabricated clip angles. These angles also have well-defined fastener locations, and testing ensures that the tabulated load values account for connection eccentricities. The connectors are general utility reinforcing angles with multiple uses. S/LS and LS connectors are skewable and can be used to attached members intersecting at angles.

KNEEWALL CONNECTORS

Features:• Anchorage legs incorporate stiffened flanges, improving overturning moment resistance• Large-diameter anchor hole accommodates 1/2"-diameter concrete screws and wedge

anchors, such as the Simpson Strong-Tie Titen HD heavy-duty screw and the Strong-Bolt® 2 wedge anchor

• Additional smaller-diameter anchor holes enable attachment to structural steel through use of #12 self-drilling screws

• Attachment to CMU can be achieved with use of Titen® concrete and masonry screws• For the RCKWS: 171 mil (7 ga.) stiffeners are secured to the RCKW clip with screws,

optimizing overturning moment resistance and stiffnessFinish: Galvanized (G90)

MSSC connectors are designed to work in tandem with Simpson Strong-Tie® BP1/2-3 bearing plates to provide solutions for moment-resisting kneewall applications.

Features:• One simple custom hole pattern for each stud size simplifies specification and installation.• 3/8" diameter anchor bolt location enables easy tool access.Material: MSSC — 97 mil (50 ksi); BP — 229 mil (33 ksi)Finish: Galvanized (G90)

The Simpson Strong-Tie® RCKW rigid connectors have been developed to resist overturning moment at the base of exterior kneewalls and parapets as well as interior partial-height walls. These connectors offer a unique anchor-hole pattern that permits anchorage to both concrete and structural steel, with the larger hole designed to accommodate 1/2"-diameter concrete screws such as the Simpson Strong-Tie Titen HD®. The RCKWS is a heavy 171 mil (7 ga.) stiffener that nests onto the RCKW clip. The screw holes and anchor holes in the stiffener line up with those in the RCKW clip, making fastener and anchor installation a snap. The RCKW clip and RCKWS stiffener are sold separately.
