Do not cut the Steel Strong-Wall or enlarge existing holes. Doing so will compromise the performance of the wall.
Do not use an impact wrench to tighten nuts on the anchor bolts.
Maximum top block height between the Steel Strong-Wall and top plates is 8" maximum.
Full height studs are required for balloon framed wall installation (design by others). Two 2x6 minimum each side with 10d nails at 16" o.c.
