The Hurricane Tie series features various configurations of wind and seismic ties for trusses and rafters.
The HM9 is designed to retrofit roof truss/rafters for block construction.
The HM9 hurricane tie provides high uplift and lateral capacity using Simpson concrete fasteners.
HGAM10 can be installed into grouted concrete block. Screws are provided.
The presloped 5:12 seat of the H16 provides for a tight fit and reduced deflection.
The strap length provides for various truss heights up to a maximum of 13½".
Minimum heel height for H16 series is 4".
Made with 18 gauge steel. Loads have been increased 33% and 60% for earthquake or wind loading with no further increase allowed; reduce where other loads govern.
Allowable loads are for one anchor.
A minimum rafter thickness of 2½" must be used when framing anchors are installed on each side of the joist and on the same side of the plate.
The HM9KT and HGAM10KTA come with SDS and 2¼" and 2¾" Titen® screws respectively. (1¾" Titen screws for concrete installations sold separately.)
