All wood-framed walls must be anchored to foundations with galvanized
anchors as needed to resist the design forces. Anchors for exterior walls, interior load-
bearing walls, and shear walls must not be less than 12.7mm (1/2 inch) diameter
embedded anchor bolts, expansion bolts, or adhesive anchor system with 102mm (4
inches) embedment spaced a maximum of 1219mm (48 inches) on center. Anchors for
interior non-bearing, non-shearwall partitions must not be less than 10mm (3/8 inch)
diameter embedded anchor bolts, expansion anchors, or adhesive anchor systems with
102mm (4 inch) embedment spaced a maximum of 1219mm (48 inches) on center, or

that under all loading conditions, the loads imposed by the metal building system onto
the foundation and anchor rods do not exceed the design capacity of the foundation
system.
