ClarkDietrich TDSB 24" O.C. TRADEREADY® STRUCTURAL BLOCKING 24" x 2-1/2" x 43mils (18ga) (bundle of 100)

Product Description

TradeReady® structural blocking is the third component of the TradeReady® steel floor system. Structural blocking is pre-cut to fit securely between the underside of the floor joists to prevent joist rotation. Provides a quick and efficient method to prevent joist rotation. Structural blocking is an economical alternative to cross bracing, X-bracing or strapping. A continuous row of blocking should be installed every 8' O.C. maximum and staggered for easy attachment. Pre-punched holes for quick attachment. Caution: In order to prevent joist rolling, the TradyReady® Structural blocking must be tied into the structure or otherwise braced against lateral movement. Note: Structural blocking is not required if sheathing is applied to the joists top and bottom. Installation: A continuous row of TradeReady structural blocking should be installed every 8' o.c. maximum and staggered for easy attachment. Blocking is secured to each joist flange using two #10 screws at each end.
