Tie Straps

HURRICANE STRAPS

DESIGN FEATURES: provide the builder with a complete range of tie straps to meet a variety of application and design load conditions and specifications

APPLICATIONS:

SS Series - Use as all-purpose ties to connect studs to sill, rafters to plates and beams, wall intersections, ridges, upper floor to lower floor wall studs, window reinforcement. All nail holes must be filled to achieve published uplift values. Special lengths available based upon your specifications (not specifically code listed due to many length combinations). Considered essential by code officials and insurance companies in maintaining a continuous load path, therefore mitigating destruction from high winds and seismic activity. SS18/24 have notched corners (more user friendly) SS10/12 have 4 holes within 1-1/2" of one end to enable 4 nails to enter a bottom plate per TDI request

MTSI Series - the strap is engineered with 3" nail spacing specifically for wood I-joists

MTS Series - designed to provide positive connections at wall intersections and ridge ties when to plates are cut

MSS/TSA Series - tie strap is designed for use on a 1-1/2" member. The 3" center-to-center nail spacing reduces the possibility of wood splitting

TWIST STRAPS

DESIGN FEATURES: provide for fast, simple hanging of joists at right angles and for securing joists to a strongback. The 6" diagonal 90° bend in the middle of the strap permits nailing to the side of the supported joist and to the side of the crossing support member above it. TWs can be used single or in pairs, depending upon load requirements. Equal number of right and left hand straps are supplied in each carton. For the MTWs, (supplied in pieces, not pairs), the 3" bend in the middle of the straps stops interference at the transition points.

MATERIALS: 16 ga. galvanized steel

COIL STRAPS

DESIGN FEATURES: coiled strapping consists of continuous coils which are designed to be cut to length on the job as required. No need to order 10", 18" or 24" straps, etc. Staggered hole pattern reduces wood splitting. Used to secure or wrap existing buildings for seismic upgrade, to tie water heaters to floors and walls and for utility purposes such as hanging pipes from rafters, studs or joists .. boxed for easier usage and storage.

APPLICATIONS: the RCS3/40/12 provides a heavy-duty strap, while the RCS3/52/14 gives you an optional medium-duty strap. All straps can be cut to length. RCS3/54/16C nail holes are counter sunk to provide easy installation for 16d-sinkers for lower nailing profile. Triangle nail holes provide optional nailing for the RCS3/40/12, and RCS3/52/14.

MATERIALS: 22 ga., 20 ga., 18 ga., 16 ga., 14 ga. and 12 ga. galvanized steel

NOTE: design loads are based on the assumption that one half of the specified number of nails are installed in each of the two members connected.

STRAP TIES / GLULAM STRUT TIES

DESIGN FEATURES: of the ST series make it ideal for tying purlins intersecting at a glulam beam .. cross-member seismic tying the ST is also used for anchoring purlins to ledgers. Bolt and nail loads may not be combined. The GST series is designed to bridge over carrier beams and tie two opposing purlins with a minimum width of 4" nominal .. thus creating a drag strut or chord tie. It is also a high value cross member seismic tie.

MATERIAL:

ST - 12 ga. galvanized steel

GST - 1/4" stl, painted
