ClarkDietrich EasyClip™ E-Series™
support clips are used for rigid
stando connections. The 4" wide
leg provides extra length to achieve
stando connections up to 3."
These support clips are commonly
used in bypass wall conditions, a
variety of floor framing applications
including solid and ladder blocking
attachments and joist-to-joist
connections, and to secure rafter
framing to the primary structure.
EasyClip E-series support clips are
prepunched for faster and more
accurate fastener placement.

TENSION BRACING
Tension bracing is used to prevent
joist compression, flange lateral
movement, and rotation. These
tension ties are an alternative to
traditional block and strapping.
Traditionally used with wood
framing, ties can also be used with
conventional C-joists.
As a general rule, floor bracing
or bridging is installed at 8'
o.c. maximum.
