BIM- Product Details
- The StiffClip® LB series connects exterior wall studs to the building’s structure through a unique design incorporating the use of stiffened legs of a 90o angle to increase bending strength. StiffClip LB resists horizontal and vertical loads. The allowable design load table shown below is based on the use of StiffClip LB as it is attached to various steel stud depths, material thicknesses and yield strengths. Design loads consider loads on the clip and #12 screw fasteners to the stud web. Pre-drilled guide holes in each leg allow for greater installation efficiency.
StiffClip LB is available for various stud depths. To specify, multiply stud depth by 100.
Example: 6” stud depth Designate: StiffClip® LB600
StiffClip® LB Features and Value:
• •Various lengths allow for construction tolerance
• •Guide holes for attachment to structure and stud
• •Replaces expensive bracing
• Structurally load tested
Material Composition
ASTM A1003/A1003M Structural Grade 50 (340) Type H, ST50H (ST340H): 50ksi (340MPa) minimum yield strength, 65ksi (450MPa) minimum tensile strength, 68mil minimum thickness (14 gauge, 0.0713” design thickness) with ASTM A653/A653M G90 (Z275) hot dipped galvanized coating
The attachment of StiffClip to the primary structure may be made with PAF's, screw/bolt anchors or weld and is dependent upon the base material (steel or concrete) and the design configuration. - Material Composition
