Steel connection studies
See how it
comes together.
Three studies. Explore how studs, tracks and connectors meet.
Illustrative studies · Project-specific engineering required
Rotate the model. Separate the components.

Assembled view · Original model placements
Follow two wall runs into a corner. The studs sit within tracks, while the overlapping top tracks show how the two runs meet.
Look at the top-track overlap, then separate the assembly to see the studs, tracks and partial wall finishes.
- Studs
- The upright C-shaped members that form the wall framing.
- Tracks
- The channels that receive the studs and meet at the corner.
- Fasteners
- Illustrative attachment positions at the track overlap.
Engineering development · Not for construction. These models explain component relationships. Dimensions, hardware, fastening schedules and capacities require project-specific engineering.
About this study and its limitations
The track lap, member lengths and fastening arrangement are illustrative. The finish panels are shown partially cut away.
