1. Design (LRFD) strengths are based on a safety factor,
f
= 0.50 determined in accordance with AISI S100-16.
2. Values are based on steel members with a minimum tensile strength of F
u
= 45 ksi.
3. Design (LRFD) Shear (Bearing) capacities for other member thicknesses may be determined by interpolating within the table.
4. For LRFD shear connections, the lower of the LRFD Shear (Bearing) Capacity and the LRFD Fastener Shear Strength must be used for design.
5. For steel with a minimum tensile strength F
u
≥ 58 ksi, multiply tabulated values by 1.29 and for steel with a minimum tensile strength F
u
≥ 65 ksi steel, multiply tabulated values by 1.44.
6. The first number is the thickness of steel in contact with the screw head, the second number is the thickness of the steel not in contact with the screw head.

1. Ultimate strengths are based on laboratory tests.
2. Ultimate load capacities must be reduced by a minimum safety factor to determine allowable loads (ASD) or by a load resistance factor to determine strength design capacities (LRFD).

1. Unless otherwise noted, Allowable (ASD) strengths are based on a safety factor, =3.00, determined in accordance with ICC-ES AC118 and AISI S100-16.
2. Values are based on steel members with a minimum tensile strength of F
u
= 45 ksi.
3. Allowable (ASD) pull-out capacities for other member thicknesses may be deterimined by interpolating within the table.
4. For ASD tension connections, the lower of the ASD tension strength, ASD pull-out strength and ASD pull-over strength must be used for design.
5. Unless otherwise noted, for 18 gauge through 1/4" thick steel with a minimum tensile strength F
u
≥ 52 ksi, multiply tabulated values by 1.15; when F
u
≥ 58 ksi, multiply tabulated values by
1.29. For 18 gauge through 1/8" thick steel, when F
u
≥ 65 ksi steel, multiply tabulated values by 1.44.
6. Allowable (ASD) strengths are based on a safety factor, , determined in accordance with ICC-ES AC500 and AISI S100-16. For steel with a minimum tensile strength F
u
≥ 52 ksi, multiply
tabulated values by 1.15.
