Description

Simpson Strong-Tie Bottom Plate Anchor Solutions are a range of structural fastenings for use in timber-framed building construction for fixing bottom plates to concrete slabs and timber mid- or sub-floors.

Simpson Strong-Tie Bottom Plate Anchor Solutions are used to resist earthquake and wind loads
on the bottom plates of timber-framed buildings designed and constructed in accordance with NZS 3604.

The range consists of screw-type anchors and timber fasteners, an acrylic injection system and an epoxy injection system which are both used with a threaded rod. Simpson StrongTie Bottom Plate Anchor Solutions are suitable to be used as proprietary bracing system holdowns to concrete slab-on-ground and timber mid- or sub-floor construction. They are also for fixing non-bracing internal and external walls to concrete slabs-on-ground.
