The StiffClip® LB (Spandrel/Multi-Purpose Clip)series connects exterior wall studs to the building’s structure through a unique design incorporating stiffened legs at a 90-degree 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 (Spandrel/Multi-Purpose Clip) Features:
- Various lengths allow for construction tolerance.
- Guide holes for attachment to structure and stud.
- Replaces expensive bracing.
- Structurally load tested.
