R804.3.1.2


Section R804.3.1.2 is titled 'Ceiling joist bottom flange bracing' and covers requirements for roof-ceiling construction. The requirement for the bottom flange of cold-formed steel ceiling joists to be laterally braced by one of two methods is established. The purpose of this section is to prevent structural failure.

The model shows a roof-ceiling assembly with the bottom flange of the ceiling joists being laterally supported by highlighted gypsum board on one side of the interior wall, and steel straps on the other side.
