ClarkDietrich Building Systems PDF Furring / Hat Channel

ClarkDietrich furring channel is a hat-shaped component used to furr out masonry walls.Concrete nails or power-driven fasteners are used to install the furring channel in concrete wall applications.The furring channels have gypsum panels attached to them.Metal Furring Channel Clips or tie wire can be used to attach furring channels to cold rolled channels.Attaching the furring channel directly to the building structure can be done with screws or power-drivenfasteners.Increased spans and loading capacity can be achieved with heavier gauge furring.In exterior applications, 18- or 16-gauge furring is used.
