Location of fasteners
1 Allowable load based on a variable safety factor in accordance with Section K of AISI S100 . 2 Testing based on deflection slip clips developed in February 2007 . Subsequent changes by the deflection slip clip manufacturer to the clip design may affect load values . 3 Allowable load values are based off of the connections tested . Steel members connected to the deflection slip clips must be investigated in accordance with accepted design criteria . 4 Spacing of fasteners depends on the design of each deflection slip clip . Fasteners should be installed through the pre-assigned locations in the deflection slip clip . 5 For edge distance requirement reference Section 3.2.2.2 . 6 Allowable load values are for loads applied perpendicular to the edge of the base steel member . 7 Multiple fasteners are recommended for any attachment . 8 Allowable load values are based on testing into 1 / 4 " ASTM A36 structural steel . Allowable load in other base steel thicknesses can be calculated as single fastener allowable load ( Tension ) x number of fasteners . Reference Table “ Ultimate and Allowable Loads in Minimum ASTM A36 ( Fy≥36 ksi ; Fu≥58 ksi ) Steel ” on page 41 for single fastener allowable loads in specific steel thickness . Calculated allowable load should be compared with the relevant allowable load in this table to determine controlling resistance load .
