Material Composition
Steel: ASTM A653/A653M, Grade 60 (410), 60ksi (410 MPa) minimum yield strength,
70ksi (480 MPa) minimum tensile strength, G-90 (Z275) hot-dipped galvanized coating.
Material thickness = 118mil (10 gauge, 0.124” design
thickness). TD Plate: ASTM A572, Grade 50 (345).
When determining the allowable load of fasteners securing StiffClip to the base
 material
and clip to stud, consider the following:
- Fasten within 1.25” from the angle heel using the existing anchor hole.
- Anchor hole for the clip is .938” x 1.125”; plate = .938” diameter.
- Guide holes are in place for fastener installation efficiency. The number of fasteners
are determined by the designer.
- Attachment to stud is made with up to 27 #12 screws, symmetrically placed.
