S/H1A SEISMIC AND HURRICANE TIE

The versatile S/H1A is designed to resist seismic and wind forces in cold-formed steel applications. These double-sided hurricane ties hold the rafter or truss for high uplift load resistance. The S/H1A is ideal for several proprietary truss chords. It features embossments that add stiffness in crucial areas for improved performance.

 

 

Key Features

 

• Provide faster installation than using two single-sided straps

• Provide a connection between the truss or rafter and the wall of the structure that helps resist wind and seismic forces

• Use also for a variety of general connections where one member crosses another
