Code Compliance

AISI North American Specification [NASPEC] S100-07 with 2010 supplement
IBC 2006, 2009 & 2012 Compliant
Gross properties are based on the full section away from flange slots
Net area is based on the section through the flange slots
Weight is nominal weight of the gross section, not reduced for flange slots
For effective flange widths, the compression flange (before local buckling) is taken as the portion of the flange between the web and the slot (the slot and any steel beyond the slot is considered absent)
The tension flange is taken as the net flange at the slots
Cold-work of forming has not been considered for effective properties
Multiple UL Head of Wall Deflection System Ratings
Telling Slotted Track can be substituted in place of any UL Wall Design utilizing 0.030” or thicker Slotted Track
Telling Slotted Track can used for Studs with a web of 2.5” to 8.0”. Telling Slotted Track can not be used in a UL firewall design for walls constructed with 1-5/8” web studs, nor 10”, 12”, 14”, 16” web studs
The Wall design must use Gypsum and not alternative wallboard materials
