Thanks phamENG I was hoping that someone was familiar with this situation and could recommended a fastener or connector that is suitable for this condition as I see this often in older 2-story homes.
The IRC specifies exterior walls to be continuous from diaphragm to diaphragm. I have a framing situation where the exterior wall is 20' tall from slab to the 2nd floor ceiling (entry foyer open up to 2nd floor ceiling) and the wall studs are not continuous. Does anyone have any experience...
