See page 147 for Titen screw information. 5. Table allowable loads were determined using test ultimate/3 or nail calculation values. 6. NAILS: 10d 0.148" dia. x 3" long, 10dx1 0.148" dia. x 1 long. See page 16-17 for other nail sizes and information. MTSM16 The MTSM and HTSM offer high strength truss to masonry connections. MATERIAL: MTSM-16 gauge; HTSM-14 gauge FINISH: Galvanized. See Corrosion-Resistance, page 6-7. INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Attach to either side of grouted concrete block with a minimum one #5 rebar horizontal. Minimum f I c = 2500 psi maximum aggregate ". CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart. Typical FGTR Double Installation FGTR Patent Pending The Face Mount Girder Tiedown (FGTR) is a non-pitch specific girder tiedown that can be used in new construction or retrofit applications to tie down a girder to a concrete or masonry wall. The product can be installed in a single application or in pairs to achieve a higher uplift capacity. See T-FGTRWOOD for wood installation. MATERIAL: Straps-7 gauge; Plate-3 gauge FINISH: Powder coated INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Product shall be installed to a minimum of a two-ply truss. To achieve the loads listed in the table below, the product shall be attached to a grouted and reinforced block wall or a reinforced concrete wall designed by others to transfer the high concentrated uplift loads to the foundation. Screw holes are configured to allow for double installation on a two-ply minimum truss. Only 2 of the 4 holes provided on each strap are required to be filled to achieve the catalog loads. The first Titen HD screw "x5" (THD) shall be installed a minimum of 4" from the top of the wall. Fasteners shall not be installed in adjacent holes. Can be installed on roof pitches up to 8:12 or on a bottom chord designed to transfer the loads. Minimum grout or concrete compressive strength 2500 psi. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart. FGTR 1 18-SDS x3 2- "x5" Titen HD 5000 2 36-SDS x3 4- "x5" Titen HD 9400 133 Model No. Qty.
