Cold-Formed Steel Stud Web Crippling
Cold-Formed Steel Stud Web Crippling
(OP)
Have any of you ever checked the capacity of a steel stud for web crippling at a punchout? I have tables for web crippling loads from suppliers but these tables do not consider web punchouts. The tables refer to a web crippling reduction factor per "ICC-ES Acceptance Criteria AC46, Appendix B". I don't know what that reference is or where to find it. I would appreciate any input.

Your web crippling factor is discussed in paragraph 4.3.2.
