Hardy Frames® Company Profile
®
H
ardy Frames manufactures and markets the revolutionary Hardy Frame® shear wall system, and has been the
leader in the pre-fabricated shear wall industry for over 15 years. The Hardy Frame® system allows Building
Design Professionals to economically and safely minimize wall space and maximize wall openings while resisting
high wind and earthquake loads.
The Hardy Frame® product line includes Panels, Brace Frames, Moment Frames, and various accessory items for
installation. The new Hardy Frame® HFX-Series presented in this catalog has been tested per the ICC-ES Acceptance
Criteria AC322, and has shown to provide excellent strength, excellent stiffness, and excellent ductility.
The original Hardy Frame® shear wall system was conceived and developed by Gary L. Hardy, a licensed General
Contractor with over 25 years of framing experience. His vision was to develop a strong and durable pre-fabricated shear
wall solution that is cost effective, simple to install, and easy to inspect in order to eliminate the problems and hidden
costs associated with site-built plywood shear walls.
From its inception the Hardy Frame® Shear Wall System has been the leading innovator in it's category. In fact, the Hardy
Frame® was the first to be recognized by ICBO-ES and LA City, the first to gain approval for multi-story applications,
the first Balloon Wall application, and the first to be recognized to comply with the 2003 and 2006 IBC and IRC Building
Codes. Our 9 inch Panel remains the narrowest prefabricated shear wall in the industry and we have now expanded our
product line to include 15 and 21 inch widths.
Hardy Frames is a wholly owned subsidiary of MiTek Industries, Inc., which is part of Warren Buffett’s Berkshire
Hathaway, Inc. By combining our talents with MiTek’s manufacturing, engineering, and software expertise, we have
amassed the resources to develop and offer the best products and services for our customers. The latest result of
these efforts is the development of the HFX-Series product line.
Our mission remains to provide you with the safest and most cost effective solutions to all of your shear and wall bracing
challenges. We strive to accomplish this by adopting a process of constant improvement – continuously seeking ways to
improve our operations, our products, and our services.

General Information
The Hardy Frame® HFX-Series Panels and Brace Frames combine the most desirable properties for a shear wall: strength, stiffness, and ductility.
This revolutionary system has been tested and evaluated under the ICC-Evaluation Service AC322 Acceptance Criteria, and has been proven to
provide the highest allowable shear loads in the industry combined with abundant ductility for a seismic “R” value of 6.5. Along with its superior
engineering properties, the HFX-Series is easier than ever to install, is code listed for varied installations including on floor systems and stacking
conditions with practical anchorage solutions for standard as well as high strength hold down rods.
New features presented in this catalog include:
• New 15 and 21 inch Panel widths.
• Allowable values for installations on 2500, 3000, and 4000 psi concrete have been combined in one table.
• The allowable design values in this catalog have been increased in accordance with the 2012 IBC Code.
• Typical installation details have been revised.
• Includes reinforced anchorage solutions for single and back-to-back Panel installations.
• New accessories including templates for 2x6 wall framing and back-to-back installations.
• New anchor bolt assemblies for threaded rod lengths of 3, 4, 5, and 6 foot.
• Tables have been resequenced by height.
• Examples of plan specifications are now shown at the end of each section.
Hardy Frame® HFX-Series Panels are available in widths of 9, 12, 15,18, 21 and 24-inches and in heights that correspond to a standard portal
(78-inches) and standard wood stud lengths. For slab or curb installations simply secure to the foundation with two 1-1/8-inch diameter hold down
anchors and connect the top channel to a collector above with 1/4-inch diameter screws through pre-punched holes. No connections are required
to the edges or to either face.
Hardy Frame® HFX-Series Brace Frames are either 32 or 44-inches wide and as with Panels, are fabricated to standard wood stud lengths. Hold
down anchors for Brace Frames are 7/8-inch diameter and may be either standard or high strength for increased allowable loads. Connections
to the foundation require two 7/8-inch diameter standard grade hold down anchors. Top connections are accomplished with 1/4-inch diameter
screws into the collector above. No other connections are required but field studs are provided for easy attachment of surface finishes with self
tapping screws.

For SI: 1 inch = 25.4 mm, 1 foot = 304.8 mm, 1 lb = 4.45 N, 1 psi 6.89 kPa.
Notes
1)The values in this table are Allowable Stress Design (ASD) excluding a 1.33 stress increase and pertain to installation on 2500, 3000, and 4000 psi concrete or nut & washer with 5,000 psi minimum non-shrink grout.
2)For installation on a nut & washer (only) table values must be multiplied by 0.80.
3) STD indicates bolts complying with ASTM F1554 Grade 36. HS rods include, but are not limited to ASTM F1554 Grade 105, ASTM A193 Grade B7 or
ASTM A354 Grade BD.
4)The applied vertical axial loads are concurrent with the allowable shear load. For Panels the axial load must be applied within the middle 1/3 of the Panel width or be uniformly distributed across the entire Panel width. For Brace Frame the axial load is acting and along the centerline of the post.
5) Allowable Shear, Drift @ V and Uplift @ V values may be linearly interpolated for intermediate height or axial loads. 6) The Uplift values listed assume no resisting axial load. To determine anchor tension loads in Panels at design shear values and including the effect of axial loads. For Brace Frames the anchor tension load equals uplift minus P, where P is the axial load in the Post.

•Panels installed on wood sill plates have more ductility but, for some
sizes the allowable shear is less to account for crushing of wood below.
•Allowable values in Table 1.2 have been reduced when necessary to
maintain code drift limit.
•Because the Brace Frame base is wider, overturning forces cause less
compression on wood sill.
Installation:
-Set bolts 4 1/4˝ inches above concrete
-Moisture barrier (15# felt, Moist Stop, Etc.) recommended when
installing on treated wood.

1) The values in this table are Allowable Stress Design (ASD) excluding a 1.33 stress increase and pertain to installation on a Wood Sill Plate supported on concrete or masonry foundations.
2) Wood Sill Plate for Panels assumes 2x wood sill plate (Fc^= 625 psi) below the Panel or Brace Frame.
3) STD indicates bolts complying with ASTM F1554 Grade 36. HS rods include, but are not limited to ASTM F1554 Grade 105, ASTM A193 Grade B7 or
ASTM A354 Grade BD.
4) The additional vertical axial loads are concurrent with the allowable shear load. For Panels the axial load must be applied within the middle 1/3 of the Panel width or be uniformly distributed across the entire Panel width. For Brace Frames the axial load is acting along the centerline of the post.
5) Allowable Shear, Drift @ V and Uplift @ V values may be linearly interpolated for intermediate height or axial loads. 6) The Uplift values listed assume no resisting axial load. To determine the anchor tension load in Panels at design shear values and including the effect of axial loads, the tension load equals uplift minus P/2, where P is the axial load on the Panel. For Brace Frames the anchor tension load equals uplift minus P, where P is the axial load on the Post.

FOUNDATIO
For SI: 1 inch = 25.4 mm, 1 lbf = 4.45 N
Notes
1) The values in this table are Allowable Stress Design (ASD) excluding a 1.33 stress increase and pertain to installation on Raised Floor Systems supported on concrete or masonry foundations.
2) Raised Floor System for Panels assumes a 2x wood sill plate, EWP rim board (Fc ^= 680 psi, 12 inch depth)with a Hardy Frame Bearing Plate installed be
low. For EWP rim boards up to 18 inches deep the allowable shear value must be multiplied by 0.96 for 12 inch Panel widths and by 0.98 for 18 and 24 inch widths. For all Panel widths the corresponding drift does not change. Raised Floor System for Brace Frames assume a 2x wood sill plate, EWP rim board (Fc^ = 680 psi,12 inch deep), floor sheathing and a 2x wood bottom plate (Fc^ =625 psi) below. For EWP rim boards up to 18 inches deep the allowable shear value does not change and the corresponding drift must be multiplied by 1.03.
3) STD indicates bolts complying with ASTM F1554 Grade 36. HS rods include, but are not limited to ASTM F1554 Grade 105, ASTM A193 Grade B7 or
ASTM A354 Grade BD.
4) The applied vertical axial loads are concurrent with the allowable shear load. For Panels the axial load must be applied within the middle 1/3 of the Panel width or be uniformly distributed across the entire Panel width. For Brace Frame the axial load is acting along the centerline of the post.
5) Allowable Shear, Drift @ V and Uplift @ V values may be linearly interpolated for intermediate height or axial loads.
6) The Uplift values listed assume no resisting axial load. To determine the anchor tension load in Panels at design shear values and including the effect of axial loads, the tension load equals uplift minus P/2, where P is the axial load on the Panel. For Brace Frames the anchor tension load equals uplift minus P where P is the axial load on the Post.

Hardy Frame® "STK Washers" are required in the top of Panels when connecting to a hold down rod
from above. Hardy Frame® "STK Panels" include STK Washers pre-welded in the top channel.
•Allowable values in Table 1.3A have been adjusted to maintain code drift limit while including
the effects of crushing in wood members below.

•Table values for Panels installed on a wood floor system assume installation of a Hardy Frame® Bearing Plate.
•For installations on beams, size plate washers on underside of wood beam to prevent crushing
and include deflection from the overturning couple in the drift procedure.
•Because Brace Frames are wider, overturning forces cause less compression on wood below
and shrinkage has less effect on horizontal drift.
•Unlike Panels, Brace Frames install on the bottom plate above floor systems. Hardy Frame®
Bearing Plates are not necessary.

Notes
1) The values in this table are Allowable Stress Design (ASD) excluding a 1.33 stress increase and pertain to installation on Upper Floor Systems that bear on wood frame walls below.
2) Upper Floor System for Panels assumes double 2x wood sill plates in the wall below, EWP rim board (Fc^ = 680 psi, 12 inch depth) with a Hardy Frame®
Bearing Plate installed below. For EWP rim boards up to 18 inches deep the allowable shear value and the corresponding drift do not change. Upper Floor System for Brace Frames assumes double 2x wood plates in the wall below, EWP rim board (Fc^ = 680 psi 12 inch deep), floor sheathing and a 2x wood bottom plate (Fc^= 625 psi) below. For EWP rim boards up to 18 inch deep the allowable shear value does not change and the corresponding drift must be multiplied by 1.03.
3) STD indicates bolts complying with ASTM F1554 Grade 36. HS rods include, but are not limited to ASTM F1554 Grade 105, ASTM A193 Grade B7 or
ASTM A354 Grade BD.
4) The applied vertical axial loads are concurrent with the allowable shear load. For Panels the axial load must be applied within the middle 1/3 of the Panel width or be uniformly distributed across the entire Panel width. For Brace Frame the axial load is acting along the centerline of the post. 5) Allowable Shear, Drift @ V and Uplift @ V values may be linearly interpolated for intermediate height or axial loads. 6) The Uplift values listed assume no resisting axial load. To determine the anchor tension load in Panels at design shear values and including the effect of axial loads, the tension load equals uplift minus P/2, where P is the axial load on the Panel. For Brace Frames the anchor tension load equals uplift minus P where P is the axial load on the Post.

•HFX/S Series products are manufactured to cold formed steel stud heights. Nominal 8’ heights are
96 5/8" net, nominal 9' is 108 5/8", etc.
•Installation can be directly on concrete (moisture barrier recommended), with a c-fs channel below,
or a nut and washer for eveling or height adjustment up to ± 1/2"
•Top connections are made with 1/4" diameter self tapping screws after installing floor or roof
members above.
•Panels and Brace Frames are 3 1/2" net depth.
The new HFX-Series Brace Frame has relocated hold down bolts to be outside of the post. Hold down
connections are now accessible even when wood or framing is in contact with the edge of the frame.

to ASTMTable
F1554 Grade
105, ASTM A193 Grade B7 or
ASTM A354 Grade BD.
4) The additional vertical axial loads are concurrent with the allowable shear load. For Panels the axial load must be applied within the middle 1/3 of the Panel width or be uniformly distributed across the entire Panel width. For Brace Frame the axial load is acting and along the centerline of the post. 5) Allowable Shear, Drift @ V and Uplift @ V values may be linearly interpolated for intermediate height or axial loads. 6) The Uplift values listed assume no resisting axial load. To determine anchor tension loads in Panels at design shear values and including the effect of axial loads, refer to Figure 4 of this Report. For Brace Frames the anchor tension load equals uplift minus P, where P is the axial load in the Post.

Hardy Frame® HFX-Series Panels in Prescriptive Braced Walls
- 2012 IRC Code Compliance and Manufacturer Recommendations
To resist wind and seismic loads strategic wall lines must be structurally braced. The International Residential Code (IRC) provides
prescriptive guidelines for bracing conventional light frame structures that must consider the following:
1) Identify wall lines that require bracing
2) Determine Braced Wall Panel locations and quantities
3) Select construction method, or material for Braced Wall Panels in each wall line and calculate the length of bracing required.
1) Identify Wall Lines
As a general rule, all exterior walls shall be braced wall lines. Additionally, when parallel braced wall line spacing exceeds the Code limit, inter
mediate braced wall lines are required. For maximum braced wall line spacing refer to Table R602.10.1.3 on page 164 of the 2012 IRC Code.
2) Determine Locations and Quantities
• For wind loading and for Seismic Design Categories A through C, Braced Wall Panels (BWPs) must be located 10 feet or less from each end of a braced wall line and the distance between adjacent edges shall not exceed 20 feet. For Seismic Design Category D0, D1 and D2 BWPs must be located at each end although there are exceptions depending on the Method of bracing. BWP at each end of wall line is always recommended.
• Braced wall lines lengths of 16 feet or less may be braced with a single BWP provided it is 48 inches or greater in width. When a 48 inch BWP width is not available a minimum quantity of two BWPs is required.
• For required bracing length refer to R602.10.3
3) Determine effective Bracing Methods and Material
Refer to Table R602.10.4
The Hardy Frame® Recommended Bracing Method
Garage Fronts:
For “Portal” framing (garage header extends over top of Panel) – HFX-9x79.5
For shear transfer at top plates of a 8 foot nominal wall height – HFX-9x8
For shear transfer at top plates of a 9 foot nominal wall height – HFX-12x9
For shear transfer at top plates of a 10 foot nominal wall height – HFX-12x10
Other Areas:
For shear transfer at top plates of a 8 foot nominal wall height – HFX-9x8
For shear transfer at top plates of a 9 foot nominal wall height – HFX-12x9
For shear transfer at top plates of a 10 foot nominal wall height – HFX-12x10
For Panel anchorage, bottom connection and top connection details refer to the Hardy Frame® Typical Installation Details.
For stacked conditions consult with the Building Designer or Hardy Frames, Inc.

Example 1: Combine HFX-Series Panels of different stiffness in the same wall line by proportioning loads.
Given:
2012 IBC, Seismic loading
Concrete f’c = 2,500 psi
Design Shear Load = 5,500 lbs.
Axial Load = 1,000 lbs per Panel
Wall height = 8'1"
5,500 lbs.
Try: (2) HFX-12x8 with (1) HFX-18x8
Step 1: Calculate Stiffness (k)
For HFX12x8: Allowable Shear from Table 1.1A (HS grade HD) = 1,480 lbs
Corresponding Drift = 0.225 in
Stiffness (k12) = 1,480 / 0.225 = 6,578 lbs/in
For HFX18x8: Allowable Shear from Table 1.1A (HS grade HD) = 3,740 lbs
Corresponding Drift = 0.312 in
Stiffness (k18) = 3,740/ 0.312 = 11,987 lbs/in
Total Stiffness (ktotal) = k12 + k12 + k18 = 6,578 lbs/in + 6,578 lbs/in + 11,987 lbs/in = 25,143 lbs/in
Step 2: Calculate Relative Stiffness
k12 / ktotal = 6,578 / 25,143 = 0.26
k18 / ktotal = 11,987 / 25,143 = 0.48
40
Step 3: Check Load Distribution
HFX-12x8 = 0.26 x 5,500 lbs = 1,430 lbs < 1,480 lbs OK
HFX-18x8 = 0.48 x 5,500 lbs = 2,640 lbs < 3,740 lbs OK

Step 1: Concrete Preparation
A) Concrete contractor shall use Hardy Frame HFX-Series Templates to accurately place embed bolts for spacing and alignment in the wall.
B) Attach the HFX-Series Template to a formboard at the location specified on plans and Install bolts. Install 1/2"x3"x3" plate washers with nuts
above and below at hold downs.
C) At Interior footings Templates may be secured in place using stakes.
D) Footing design, embed depths, and anchor edge/end distances are per the Building Design Professional.
E) Determine if the Hardy Frame will be installed on concrete or a mudsill. For installation directly on concrete the recommended bolt height above
finished concrete is 2-3/4" and for installation on a 2x mudsill it is 4-1/4".
Step 2: First Floor Installation on concrete
A) Installation of a moisture barrier such as Moistop or 15# felt is recommended under the Frame.
B) Set the Hardy Frame over the embed bolts and install (1) Hardened Round, (2) Round-Flat, or (2) SAE washers and a Grade 8 hex nut.
C) Tighten nuts until snug tight.
D) After framing and plumb & line are complete, place a 2x filler above the Frame to make up the height difference created by eliminating the
sill plate, and connect with 1/4" x 4-1/2" screws through the top of the Frame, through the filler and into the double top plates or header above.
For fillers larger than 1-1/2" net, refer to detail 3/HFX5.
Step 2: First Floor Installation on a Sill Plate
A) If the Hardy Frame is to be installed on a mudsill, plot the bottom plate and cut the length to match the width of the Frame. If located next
to a door opening, allow the plate to run into the opening.
B) Set the Hardy Frame over the embed bolts and install (1) Hardened Round, (2) Round-Flat, or (2) SAE washers and a Grade 8 hex nut.
C) Tighten nuts until snug tight.
D) After framing and plumb & line are complete, install 1/4"x3" screws through the top of the Frame into the double top plates or header above.
Top plates must be continuous or have a minimum 8’ lap at splices.

®
SidePlate Code Evaluations
Included in the Standard AISC 358
ICC-Evaluation Service ESR-1275 Report
LA City Research Report RR-25393
Hardy Frames introduced the first standardized,
prefabricated Special Moment Frame in 2006. Since then
we have delivered thousands of Moment Frames that have
been successfully installed. Our Special Moment Frames
provide maximum structural capacities and enable large
openings in architectural design.
Hardy Frame® Special Moment Frames utilize the SidePlate
moment connection which has now been approved by
the Connection Prequalification Review Panel (CPRP) for
inclusion in the AISC 358 Prequalified Moment Connection
Standard. Typically, Hardy Frame® Moment Frames
are delivered to the jobsite in one-piece, completely
prefabricated with wood nailers attached, and ready to be
installed with no assembly. No field welding and or special
inspection is required.
On production framing jobs the Hardy Frame® Moment
Frame can’t be beat. We have delivered truckload
quantities of up to 30 Moment Frames that were installed
in a single day. That is an accomplishment that cannot be
matched by conventional or assembly-required moment
frames.
Custom Sizes and Custom
Calculations
We offer over 300 standard dimension Moment Frames,
but we don’t stop there. We also offer calculations
and solutions for sizes beyond our standard listing. We
commonly provide solutions for two-story and multi-story
frames as well as for fixed based connections.
At Hardy Frames we understand that Moment Frames
require job-specific considerations. We work with
contractors to meet their needs without treating
adjustments as a custom order.
Moment Frame Template Kits
62
Template Kits are included with the purchase of the Hardy
Frame® Moment Frame and are a stock item that can
be shipped within one business day. The Kit includes all
embed anchors, nuts, washers and Templates so the
concrete pour can proceed prior to the Moment Frame
delivery. Correctly locating the anchors is easy with a slot
provided in the Template to measure the “Win”, (inside
steel-to-steel) dimension.

4. Measure the interior “slot to slot” distance to be the same as the “Win” (inside steel to steel) dimension for the Frame being installed.
5. Set the top of all anchors to be 4-1/4 inches (minimum) above top of concrete
6. With specified reinforcement in place (not shown) pour concrete into footing
7. Install one nut with one washer above on all anchors with the washers at approximately 1-1/2 inches above top of concrete

Hardy Frame® Z4 Continuous Rod Tie-Down Systems
Quick Connect Systems for Resisting Lateral Load and Wind Uplift
ROOF RAFTERS
Quick Connect System for
Lateral Loads
To resist tension loads due to
overturning moments in multistory buildings the Z4 Cinch Nut
is installed over a Bearing Plate
at each level in a fast and easy
“Quick Connect” application. At
the upper-most level a Cinch
Nut is installed over a Bearing
Plate above the top plates. At
walls below that bear on wood
floor systems the Cinch Nut and
Bearing Plate is installed over
the bottom plate. Tension loads
are gathered at each level and
transferred into the foundation
through a continuous system
of Cinch Nuts, Bearing Plates,
threaded rods and coupling
nuts, all available from Hardy
Frame – Z4.
QUICK CONNECT ASSEMBLY
Z4 Continuous Rod Tie-Down Systems utilize Z4 “Cinch Nuts” to
compensate for wood shrinkage and building settlement that cause
connections to loosen over time. The Cinch Nut uses a self-ratcheting
action that permits threaded rods to move, or “travel” perpetually in
one direction only through the device. Available for installation with
threaded rods that are 5/8 inch through 1-1/2 inch diameter in 1/8
inch increments, the Z4 Cinch Nut has been code evaluated and
published in ESR-2190.

Quick Connect System for
Wind Uplift
For resisting roof uplift loads
resulting from wind the Z4 Cinch
Nut is installed over a Bearing
Plate above the top plates with
roof framing above to create a
tie-down system. Uplift forces
are transferred into a continuous
system of threaded rods and
coupling nuts that form a load
path to the foundation.

Paired and Sandwiched Connections for Tension and Compression Load Transfer
Z4 Continuity Tie
The Z4 “CT” is a steel tube with steel end
plates welded to both ends designed to
transfer tension and compression forces
from one beam to another (Continuity Tie
application) or from a beam to a perpendicular
wall (Wall Tie application). Connections
are made by bolting the tube to a wood
member and attaching to a threaded rod for
transferring forces.

The Z4 “T2” is a steel tube with a steel end
plate welded to one end designed to transfer
tension forces as a concentric hold-down
device. Sandwiched Installations are made
by through bolting two wood members with a
T2 between and “Paired Installations” through
bolt two T2 connectors with a wood member
between. For both installation methods the
tube is then attached to a threaded rod to
transfer the tension loads.
