ShortSpan System: The best choice for framing short spans

Reduce Labor Cost: eliminates screws, cross tees and hanger wire (in most applications)Reduce Material Cost: economical price point on componentsReduce Waste: standard and custom lengths – and there’s no cartons to throw awayReduce Risk: system was evaluated using full scale seismic testing and may be an acceptable solutionon your next project. Check with your local code official for approval prior to installations. For officialtest reports, please contact TechLine at 877-ARMSTRONG.Fire Rated: up to 2-hour rating with one (1) layer of fire-rated gypsum board. (See Pages 5 and 6 fordrawing detail) Resistive when used in applicable UL fire resistive designs.

DrywallFramingSystemLocking Angle Molding

Locking Angle Molding (Patent Pending): a faster, more accurate solution

✓ Pre-engineered locking tabs punched 8″ oncenter:

– Eliminate measuring 16″ or 24″ – Locking tabs prevent lateral and upward

movement – Eliminate screws, pop rivets, or crimpers

needed to attach tees to molding

✓ Knurled surface on both flanges

✓ ScrewStop reverse hem prevents screw spinoff and provides safer handling

✓ Alignment crimp at locking tabs for fast, easy alignment

✓ Locking Angle Molding is designed to only work with Armstrong ShortSpan products

Installation Notes

1 ShortSpan tees must be cut within 1/8″ of the vertical leg ofthe Locking Angle Moldings (for non-rated installations only.)

2 Must screw LAM-12 and KAM-12to wall structure (#8 x 1-1/4″ waferhead self drill sheet metal screwstested in 25 and 20 gauge steelstuds)

– Assembly tested to 200 lbs. forshear and screw pullout withoutfailure (refer to Maximum Loadchart on page 11)

3 Insert right hand flange of tee intopocket “A” first and allow leftflange to clear pocket “B” andrest on angle molding. Slide tee tothe left to engage in pocket “B”(audible click)

ShortSpan™ StrongBack™ Support


DrywallFramingSystem

StrongBack (Patent Pending): Easier, pre-engineered solution to support spansover 6 or 7 feet

✓ Knockouts 8″ on center eliminates measuring, screwing,and splicing

✓ Allows vertical supports at 4′on center instead of 24″ or 16″

✓ Reduces lateral movement

✓ Resists upward movement if used with vertical tee post or stud

✓ Easier to level system comparedto traditional framing

StrongBack support installed mid-spanwith vertical post at 4′ on center.

1 Flattened bulballows StrongBackto slide over bulb

2 Slide StrongBack into place – no bending oftab required

Installation Recommendations*

1 Install Locking Angle Molding (LAM-12) on walls

2 Lock in ShortSpan tees(S77XX) into LAM-12

3 Open StrongBack (SB-12) lock tabs with pliers (easier ifperformed on floor)

4 Slide StrongBack over bulb ofShortSpan tee and engage bybending lock tabs back to original position

5 Support and level system tostructure; attach vertical supportsto StrongBack as required

6 To provide stability to StrongBack it is recommended to bend first 4″ to 90° and pin to wall

How to install ShortSpan:1 Must screw LAM-12 to wall structure.

2 ShortSpan tees must be cut within 1/8″ of the vertical leg of theLocking Angle Moldings (for non-rated installations only).

3 Insert right hand flange of tee into pocket “A” first and allow leftflange to clear pocket “B” and rest on angle molding. Slide teeto the left to engage in pocket “B” (audible click).

How to install Support Track:1 Locate the bottom edge of the support track 7-5/8″ for 8″ gusset,

or 11-5/8″ for 12″ gusset, above the horizontal flange of the locking angle molding.

2 Fasten the support tracks to the structure of the wall using fasteners appropriate for the construction. The support track sections have pre-punched holes spaced every 4″ along theirlength to facilitate attachment.

How to install Gussets:1 Hang the ShortSpan Tee on the support track over each end

of every main beam.

2 Insert a #6 x 7/16″ long sheet metal screw through the hole provided in the gusset and into the bulb of the ShortSpan framing tee.

Knurled Angle Molding (KAM12 & KAM10)More Installation Benefits in Enhanced Drywall Framing System Wall AngleValue Added Features

✓ Knurled Angle Molding (KAM)…for Drywall Framing has the time saving advantages of knurling,ScrewStop™, pre-punched holes, and no cartons to throw away.

✓ Knurling: Helps the screws to grab quickly

✓ ScrewStop: A reverse hem on the top and bottom flange will catch the screw and prevent it from slippingoff the wall angle. It also adds a safety factor…no sharp edges on the top or bottom of the angle.

✓ Pre-punched holes: Located on the top edge, they allow for faster insertion of the screws.

✓ No carton packaging: Eliminate time needed to open and throw away cartons…just cut the plasticstrap and go. They can also be stored outside.
