Scope

Pryda Connectors and Engineered Systems - Nail Plates are designed and manufactured for splicing two adjacent pieces of timber:

• NZ Knuckle Nail Plates – Standard and Coil are for jointing end-butted timber top plates, timber purlins or timber joists; or for end jointing timber members to resist gravity and wind uplift loads with load capacities detailed in the Reference Documents for Specific Engineering Design use.
• NZ Nail-On Cleat is for fixing timber joists to timber bearers perpendicular to each other to resist wind uplift loads with a design capacity of 5.5 kN for Specific Engineering Design use.
• NZ Concealed Purlin Cleat is used to connect timber framing members as detailed in the Reference Documents to resist wind uplift with design capacities detailed in the Reference Documents for Specific Engineering Design use.
• NZ Nail-On Diagonal Cleat is to fix timber beams perpendicular to each other to resist gravity and wind uplift loads with load capacities detailed in the Reference Documents for Specific Engineering Design use.
• NZ Nail-on Plates are to connect end-butted timber framing members to resist gravity and wind uplift loads with load capacities detailed in the Reference Documents for Specific Engineering Design use.
• NZ Nail-on Angles are to connect timber framing members perpendicular to each other to resist gravity and wind uplift loads with load capacities detailed in the Reference Documents for Specific Engineering Design use.
• NZ Strap Nails are for jointing end-butted timber top plates or for connecting timber top plates to external timber wall framing members to resist tensile loads along the plates with load capacities detailed in the Reference Documents for Specific Engineering Design use.
  
  • MPSN50 and SN50L achieve design capacities of 3 kN and 4.1 kN respectively which is in accordance with NZS 3604 for connecting timber top plates in walls not containing bracing.
