DriftTrak Headed Stud saves the time of installing DriftTrak after the slab has been poured by integrating it directly into the slab before its poured. The headed studs come pre-installed to the DriftTrak and function as the attachment to the slab instead of welding to the pour stop or use of PAFs. Once concrete is poured, the product is ready to support steel framing using any DriftTrak Bypass clip to accommodate vertical deflection and lateral drift requirements in floor slab bypass conditions. As with the standard, the new Headed Stud can also be used to better facilitate panel installation by attaching DriftTrak Bypass clips to the panel and sliding the panel onto the DriftTrak during installation. Vertical deflection and drift movement can be left intact or a locking angle can be installed to prevent lateral drift if not required. For more information, visit steelnetwork.com.
