Hey guys, So I have CFS jambs I'm trying to make work that are currently failing in web crippling. How do you guys typically reinforce for web crippling at the bottom & top connections of CFS Jambs?

Thank you!

Provide a clip, or cut a small piece of stud and put it horizontally, fastened to the web of the stud. Here's a picture from a Bailey guide.

The stud stiffener solution above shouldn't be used with deflection tracks at the top though, for that I use TDC clips from Bailey.
