Deflection Head Description

150mm Deflection Head is used as a component of the Nashco Steel Stud Wall Framing System. Deflection Head is used as the top track or plate of the wall. The Deflection Head is secured to the soffit or ceiling using a fixing through the back of the track. 150mm Studs are then held in the track by a friction fit connection.

Note: Studs cannot be fixed through the side of Deflection Head, if a mechanical fixing is required. Slotted Deflection Head must be used. Deflection Head must be used in lieu of Standard 32mm Floor Track in applications where structural deflection must be allowed for. Commons applications of the Deflection Head include multi-level concrete structures where the slab deflects or walls that run to the underside of structural steel. Walls that are lined one side only, require a additional row of nogging track within 100mm from the soffit.

• 1.15bmt Steel Stud Wall Framing System
• The 1.15bmt gauge Steel Stud Wall Framing System is the heaviest gauge product in the Steel Stud Range. It is typically used for either extra high walls or for external and load-bearing applications. Common applications include;
• External Wall Systems subject to lateral wind load.
• Loadbearing Wall Systems subject to axial loading.
• Inter-tenancy walls in Industrial Factories / Warehouses
• Facade Framing - infill panels and blade walls.

Nashco Steel Stud Wall Framing Systems provide architects, engineers and installers with a fast, easy and durable solution for light wight internal wall framing.

All Nashco wall systems comply with the relevant Australian standards and building codes for fire-rating sound rating and structural integrity, when lined with the correct lining material There are many and varied uses of the 0.75bmt gauge Steel Stud Wall Framing System.
