SA/HSA Strap Connectors 1.Loads include a 33% or 60% load duration increase on the fasteners for earthquake or wind loading, but DO NOT include a 33% stress increase on the steel capacity. Refer to page 13 for further explanation. 2.10d commons may be substituted where 16d sinkers are specified at 100% of the table loads. 3.16d sinkers (0.148" dia. x 3 long) or 10d commons may be substituted where 16d commons are specified at 0.85 of the table loads. 4.Allowable bolt loads are based on parallel-tograin loading and these minimum member thicknesses: MST-2 HST2 and HST5-4"; HST3 and HST6-4 ". 5.Use half of the required nails in each member being connected to achieve the listed loads. 6.For overlap splice details, refer to T-CMST. 7. Straps with 10d (0.148 dia. x 3) nails specified may be substituted with 10dx1 (0.148 dia. x 1 with no reduction in load. 8. NAILS: 16d 0.162" dia. x 3 long, 16d Sinker 0.148" dia. x 3 long, 10dx1 0.148" dia. x 1 long. See page 16-17 for other nail sizes and information.

Typical Detail with Strap Installed Over Sheathing When nailing the strap over OSB/plywood, use 10d commons, 16d sinkers, 16dcommons. A minimum penetration of 10 nail diameters is required for table loads. See note 3 for load reductions. Nails are not required in the rim board area. Floor-to-Floor Tie Installation showing a Clear Span Available with additional corrosion protection. Check with factory. A high value seismic tie for horizontal ties across intervening members. FINISH: Galvanized INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. May not be suitable for floor diaphragms which protrude above beams. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.
