Wood based panels for shear wall and horizontal diaphragms have traditionally been attached to light
gauge steel framing using tapping screws. To increase the speed of installation and to reduce the amount of labor
used making these attachments, pneumatic nailing systems have been introduced. These products
allow wood based panels to be fastened to steel in a manner similar to which panels have been nailed to wood
framing in the past. This Tech Note provides information on specifications, design procedures and field inspection
of pneumatic drive pins.
