Size and dimension specifications are equally important. Bolt diameter and length are determined by the load-bearing requirements of the structure and the type of soil it's embedded in. Generally, bolt diameters range from 1/2 inch to 1-1/2 inches, while lengths can vary from a few inches to several feet. The American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) and International Building Code (IBC) provide detailed guidelines for these dimensions.

By installing bracing at regular intervals along the length of the studs, the structure is able to distribute weight evenly and resist any potential movement or deformation. This is especially important in buildings with multiple floors or in areas prone to seismic activity, where the walls need to be able to withstand significant lateral forces.
