Description
The wall brace WB.F is used in order to add structural integrity of long and tall partitions, which are mounted on antivibration pads or based on floating floor. They avoid any direct connection between the double stud or combination of masonry walls and increase their stiffness. Additionally they prevent wall buckling during earthquakes. WB.F is useful when a secondary wall is applied for improved sound insulation and rigid connections will cause unwanted sound bridge. They also provide structural stability without losing acoustic performance.

Dynamic Characteristics
Natural Frequency (at maximum load): 11 Hz for 25mm thickness and 8 Hz for 37 mm thickness
-More types can be produced on demand for other axial loads
-Wall braces are not to be used for vertical support
-Natural frequency is a function of the applied load and the dynamic stiffness in axial direction
