Simpson Strong-Tie introduces the DSSCB for cold-formed steel construction. The DSSCB is used to anchor cold-formed steel bypass framing to the edge of a floor slab in order to accommodate horizontal building drift. The DSSCB simplifies panelized construction by allowing contractors to install finished panels from the top of the slab without the need to predrill or preinstall anchors for each clip. It also eliminates the coordination difficulties associated with preanchorage of standard bypass clips. With prepunched slots and round holes, the DSSCB is a dual-function connector that can be used for slide-clip and fixed-clip applications. Depending on the application, the struts can be mechanically ancored, welded, or cast in place to provide further rigidity and support.
Installation:

• Use the specified type and number of fasteners.
