Abstract: A framing assembly is disclosed including an acoustic framing arrangement and a plurality of tracks. The acoustic framing arrangement interconnects a top track with a bottom track. The acoustic framing arrangement includes a pair of studs positioned in back-to-back configuration and mechanically joined using a connector. The connector includes a vertical portion that extends between the pair of studs and a base portion that connects to the tracks. When assembled, the acoustic framing arrangement creates space between the pair of studs and positions the studs in an offset configuration to improve wall stud acoustic performance.

Abstract: A framing system includes a first connection assembly that engages with a substrate. The first connection assembly includes a first connector and a track. At least one spring flange defined by the first connector engages with a fastener positioned along the substrate to maintain the first connection assembly in a fixed position relative to the substrate and to interconnect the substrate with the track. The framing system further includes a second connection assembly defining a second connector engaged to a stud. The second connection assembly engages with the first connection assembly to interconnect the stud with the track.

Abstract: Embodiments of a framing assembly including modular connectors for interconnecting components of the framing assembly are disclosed.

Abstract: A framing assembly is disclosed including a first connector and a second connector. The first connector includes a body defining an edge portion. The second connector includes a base and a flange in communication with the base. To interconnect framing components of the framing assembly, the second connector is engaged with the first connector such that an engagement surface of the flange abuts the edge portion of the first connector restricting movement of the second connector relative to the first connector.
