Standard Specification for Installation of Steel Framing Members to Receive Screw-Attached Gypsum Panel Products
Also Known As:
The ASTM C754-20 standard outlines the minimum requirements for the installation of interior nonstructural steel framing and furring members that are designed to receive screw-attached gypsum panel products.
The standard emphasizes the importance of obtaining specific construction details from reports of fire-resistance tests, engineering evaluations, or recognized fire testing laboratories in order to achieve the required fire resistance, sound, or acoustic rating for a particular assembly.
The specification covers various elements of the metal framing assembly, including studs, runners, rigid furring channels, tie wires, hanger wires, and grid suspension systems such as main beams, cross furring members, and rod and flat hangers. Each element must be manufactured according to the specified dimensions.
The standard provides thorough installation procedures for the metal framing, such as runners, studs, chase wall partitions, rigid furring channels, wall furring-bracket systems, and soffits. It also discusses installation requirements for suspended and furred ceilings, including main runners, flat hangers and inserts, wood constructions, furring members, rigid furring channels, and grid suspension systems.
