Non-load bearing partition connection to Bottom of trusses.
(OP)
Does anyone know of any reference on how a non-load bearing wall/partition in a house should be fastened to the bottom chord of trusses?

whyun I do not understand why adding a diagonal. The load path should not be thru a non-loadbearing partition.

Required spacing is limited by the capacity of the clips, spacing of the trusses and the calculated reaction at each clip. High partitions may require clips at every truss/joist, I limit the maximum spacing at 48" but don't know whether there is a code maximum.
