Strong-Wall� Site-Built Portal Frame System

The Strong-Wall site-built portal frame system (PFS) provides designers, builders and contractors an easy way to achieve wall-bracing requirements with narrow wall widths. Simple and quick to install, the PFS is a cost-effective alternative to steel braced-wall solutions.

� Narrow wall width -- 240 mm or 300 mm nominal column sizes allow builders to maintain narrow return walls at garage openings and allow designers to maximize portal openings in standard wall framing, such as for large windows or sliding glass doors.
� Easy to assemble -- saves time for the installer and increases the confidence of the specifier that it will be installed properly.
� Cost effective -- site-built portal frames are less expensive than steel or moment frames.
� Larger openings -- designers need as much bracing capacity as possible to economically design structures.

1. The Strong-Wall site-built portal frame system (PFS) is applicable for use up to 3 m max. The height is permitted to be increased to 3.6 m with a 600 mm max. dwarf wall. Wall-bracing allowable lateral load must be reduced by a 0.80 factor.
2. Use limited to single-story and the first of two-storey applications. 3. Concurrent vertical load denotes the total maximum concentric vertical load permitted on the panel acting in combination with the lateral wind loading. 4. The designer is responsible for the beam design. The reaction at beam/column interface shall not exceed the tabulated maximum allowable beam end reaction. 5. LVL is 14,000 MPa (minimum). LVL with E=13,200 MPa can be adopted with a reduction of 5% to bracing capacities. 6. Minimum header depths of 300 mm for LVL.
