PASSMORE CENTER ADDITION AND RENOVATION <br />HILLSBOROUGH, NORTH CAROLINA <br />Install temporary bracing and supports to secure framing and support loads comparable in <br />intensity to those for which structure was designed. Maintain braces and supports in place, <br />undisturbed, until entire integrated supporting structure has been completed and permanent <br />connections to framing are secured. <br />g. Do not bridge building expansion and control joints with cold - formed metal framing. <br />Independently frame both sides of joints. <br />h. Install insulation, specified in Division 7 Section "Building Insulation," in built -up exterior <br />framing members, such as headers, sills, boxed joists, and multiple studs at openings, that are <br />inaccessible on completion of framing work. <br />Fasten hole reinforcing plate over web penetrations that exceed size of manufacturer's standard <br />punched openings. <br />Erection Tolerances: Install cold - formed metal framing level, plumb, and true to line to a <br />maximum allowable tolerance variation of 1/8 inch in 10 feet and as follows: <br />1). Space individual framing members no more than plus or minus 1/8 inch from plan <br />location. Cumulative error shall not exceed minimum fastening requirements of sheathing <br />or other finishing materials. <br />a. Install continuous tracks sized to match studs. Align tracks accurately and securely anchor to <br />supporting structure as indicated. <br />b. Fasten both flanges of studs to bottom track, unless otherwise indicated. Space studs as follows: <br />1). Stud Spacing: As indicated on Shop Drawings. <br />C. Set studs plumb, except as needed for diagonal bracing or required for nonplumb walls or <br />warped surfaces and similar requirements. <br />d. Isolate non -load- bearing steel framing from building structure to prevent transfer of vertical loads <br />while providing lateral support, using one of the following: <br />1). Install single -leg deflection tracks and anchor to building structure. <br />2). Install double deep -leg deflection tracks and anchor outer track to building structure. <br />3). Connect vertical deflection clips to studs and anchor to building structure. <br />4). Connect drift clips to cold formed metal framing and anchor to building structure. <br />e. Install horizontal bridging of the types listed below in wall studs, spaced in rows indicated on <br />Shop Drawings but not more than 48 inches apart. Fasten at each stud intersection. <br />1). Top Bridging for Single Deflection Track: Install row of horizontal bridging within 12 <br />inches of single deflection track. Install a combination of flat, taut, steel sheet straps of <br />COLD - FORMED METAL FRAMING 054000-9 <br />
