and steel-making technology, exceeding the performance of
conventional drywall framing for allowable moment and screw
connection strength. When comparing drywall framing systems,
it is important to keep in mind Life Safety, System Performance
and Connections. The ProSTUD Drywall Framing System provides
peace of mind for all three important functions by providing the
right selection of products and product data for every application.

Connections
In addition to sufficient member strength, it’s important to know how connections will perform. Connections can be
critical to the capacity and safety of an assembly, but they are also important for the attachment of cabinets, shelving,
handrails, and other accessories to steel framing. The tables below compare the screw performance of ProSTUD
to conventional drywall framing. This performance relationship to conventional studs can be applied to a variety of
fasteners and connections.

Along with connection capacity, conventional framing members are required to meet performance criteria for screw
spinout. ProSTUD was developed with screw performance in mind. High-strength steel, flange stiffening grooves,
web embossments, and knurling features combine to provide the best performance per thickness, exceeding the
requirements of ASTM C645.

Notes:
– C alculated properties are based on AISI S100-07, North American Specification for Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members and AISI S220-11, North American Standard for
Cold-Formed Steel Framing—Nonstructural Members.
– Effective properties incorporate the strength increase from the cold work of forming as applicable per AISI A7.2.
– Tabulated gross properties, including torsional properties, are based on full-unreduced cross section of the studs, away from punchouts.
– Tabulated gross properties, including torsional properties, are based on full-unreduced cross section of the tracks.
– For deflection calculations, use the effective moment of inertia.
– Allowable moment includes cold work of forming.
– Allowable moment is taken as the lowest value based on local or distortional buckling. Distortional buckling strength is based on a k-phi = 0.
– Web depth for track sections is equal to the nominal height plus two times the design thickness plus the bend radius. Hems on nonstructural track sections are ignored.
1 Web-height to thickness ratio exceeds 200. Web stiffeners are required at bearing points.
2 Web-height to thickness ratio exceeds 260. Web stiffeners are required at bearing and intermediate points.

Notes:
– A llowable screw connection capacities are based on Section E4 of the AISI S100-07 Specification.
– W hen connecting materials of different steel thicknesses or tensile strengths, use the lowest values. Tabulated values assume two sheets of equal thickness are connected.
– S crew shear and tension capacities were developed using published screw manufacturer data and evaluation reports available at the time of publication.
– Screw capacities are based on Allowable Strength Design (ASD) and include a safety factor of 3.0.
– W hen multiple fasteners are used, screws are assumed to have a center-to-center spacing of at least three times the nominal diameter (d).
– S crews are assumed to have a center-of-screw to edge-of-steel dimension of at least 1-1/2 times the nominal diameter (d) of the screw.
– T ension capacity is based on the lesser of pullout capacity in sheet closest to screw tip, or pullover capacity for sheet closest to screw head (using head diameter).
– S
 crew capacities are governed by a conservative estimate of screw capacity, not by sheet steel failure.
– F
 or higher screw capacities, especially for screw strength, use specific screws from specific manufacturer. See manufacturer’s data for specific allowable values and

ProSTUD, like any interior drywall stud, may be used in a variety of applications including walls, ceilings, and soffits. While
some conditions may require the expertise of a design professional, many assemblies can be selected based on tabulated data.
Using the diagrams below, locate the required assembly and follow the instructions for selecting the proper ProSTUD member.

Composite Assemblies
Composite limiting height data can be applied to walls where gypsum board is
installed on both flanges of the stud for the full height of the wall. ProSTUD
composite data is based on the 2003, 2006, 2009 and 2012 International
Building Code, and was tested and analyzed in accordance with the most recent
version of AC86 (2010). Composite limiting height tables for ProSTUD members
are available starting on page 10 of this catalog. In addition, a comprehensive
offering is available at clarkdietrich.com.
Composite

full height on both sides

Non-Composite Assemblies
Non-composite conditions are common in all structures. When the gypsum board stops at the ceiling level, but the stud
continues to the deck, it is a non-composite condition. While there may be advantages to contacting Technical Services
or a Design Professional, many conditions can be covered by limiting heights tables shown in this catalog or at
clarkdietrich.com. When in doubt, call our complimentary Technical Services Hotline at 888-437-3244.

Notes:
– H eights are based on AISI S100-07, North American Specification and AISI S220-11, North American Standard for Cold-Formed Steel Framing—
Nonstructural Members, using steel properties alone.
– Above listed Non-Composite Limiting Heights are applicable when the unbraced length is less than or equal to Lu.
– Heights are limited by moment, deflection, shear, and web crippling (assuming 1" end reaction bearing).
1 Web-height to thickness ratio exceeds 200. Web stiffeners are required at bearing points.
*Higher heights can be achieved by using end-bearing stiffeners. See full ProSTUD non-composite charts at clarkdietrich.com.

DEEP LEG DEFLEC TION TRACK SYSTEMS

Head-of-wall vertical deep leg deflection track systems are required to allow the top of the wall stud to float within the top track legs.
This condition allows for vertical live load movement of the primary structure without transferring axial loads to the interior drywall studs.
A gap (determined by the Engineer of Record) is required between the top of the wall stud and the deflection track.
ProSTUD® Drywall Framing studs can be used with the three Deep Leg Track Systems listed below:
ProTRAK® Deep Leg Track
ProTRAK deep leg track is available with leg lengths of 2," 2-1/2" and 3" long.
The wall studs are not fastened to the deflection track, and a row of lateral
bracing is required within 12" of the deep leg track to prevent rotation and
lateral movement of the studs. The deflection track system must be designed
for the end reaction of the wall studs (point loads) and for the specific gap
required for vertical deflection.

ProTRAK 33MIL 113 33' 10" 75 22' 7" 56 16' 11"

Notes:
– Limiting wall heights are based on studs spaced at 16" o.c. and an interior lateral load of 5psf.
– Stud members must be analyzed independently of the track system. Use www.iProSTUD.com to check
limiting wall heights for ProSTUD members.
– Stud failure modes relating to the deflection track connection (shear, web crippling, etc.) must be
checked separately.
Details shown are for example only. The engineer of record of the project
is responsible for the design of the connection to the structure. Additional
Structural Deep Leg Track (18ga & 16ga) connection details can be found at clarkdietrich.com.
Structural Deep Leg Track systems are installed the same as the ProTRAK
deep leg track system but are designed to handle tall wall systems.
For structural deep leg track allowable loads, contact Technical Services at
888-437-3244 or visit clarkdietrich.com.

Slotted Deflection Track from ClarkDietrich

The slotted deflection track is attached to the wall studs through vertical
slots using wafer head screws, creating a positive connection that allows for
vertical movement and also eliminates the requirement for lateral bracing
near the top of the wall stud.

LEED Credit MR 2 (Construction Waste Management)

ClarkDietrich products are manufactured from cold-formed steel. Steel is 100%
recyclable. This attribute can help when diverting construction debris from the waste
stream. Recycling construction waste contributes to LEED Credits MR 2.1 and
2.2. The specific contribution will vary by project and must be determined by the
contractor. (Up to 2 pts.)

LEED Credit MR 4 (Recycled Content)

ClarkDietrich produces cold-formed steel framing products with a minimum recycled
ClarkDietrich
LEED Request Form
content of 34.9%, of which 24.3% is post-consumer and 9.4% is pre-consumer. These
online at clarkdietrich.com minimum values are based on resources from Steel Recycling Institute. Recycled content
of materials contributes to LEED Credits MR 4.1 and 4.2, and possibly an Innovation in
Design Credit if the project’s overall recycled content exceeds 30%. If a higher content
is desired, ClarkDietrich can provide this information if mill certifications are requested
at time of order. (Up to 3 pts.)

LEED Credit MR 5 (Regional Materials)

LEED Credit MR 5 requires the jobsite to be within a 500 mile radius of the manufacturing
plant and from the point of extraction of raw materials. With nationwide manufacturing
locations, ClarkDietrich plants, as well as our steel sources, often fall within the required
500 mile radius. Each product must be tracked from the mill to the project location
and then these values must be weighted by recycled content percentages. If you wish to
report MR 5 Credits, please submit a LEED request through clarkdietrich.com or contact
ClarkDietrich Technical Services at 888-437-3244 for procedures. (Up to 2 pts.)
