Continuing Education: 1.5 Hours Available
This webinar will review various interior non-structural CFS framing for both code specified & engineered applications. Often, interior applications beyond ASTM installation standards are not thoroughly addressed in project contract documents. This webinar sheds light on code & industry standard limitations illustrating which do not require analysis & which require additional engineering to determine proper member sizes & installation. Tentatively, the presentation will provide a brief discussion of the following topics:
- Introduction
- Presentation overview
- Review of codes & standards
- Industry technology & proprietary products
- Wall & ceiling members: Tables, bridging & limitations
- Chase wall framing
- Wall openings & wall obstructions
- Partial height partition support systems
- Structure deflection accommodations
- Head-of-wall obstructions
- Wall reinforcement backing
- Suspended ceiling systems
- Ceiling bulkhead framing
- Shaftwall Framing
- Additional comments and conclusions
