Eccentric Load on Metal Stud
(OP)
Hi,
I am attaching ceiling joists to the flange of metal studs by using metal tracks. The studs are running floor to roof. Ceiling is lower than the roof. My question is that since metal studs will be loaded axially with an eccentric load. Which equation should I follow to design the metal studs ? They are also taking shear ..
