The STHD is an embedded strap-tie holdown offering high-loads in both wood and cold-formed steel construction. When installed on the forms with the StrapMate? strap holder or other holding device, the unique design of this cast-in-place strap-tie holdown delivers enhanced stability before and during the pour to help prevent both parallel and perpendicular movement. This results in accurate positioning of the strap and reduced possibility of spalling.

The BPS is designed to provide a greater bearing surface than standard-cut washers and help distribute the load at critical connections. This bearing plate features a slotted hole that allows for adjustability to account for bolts that are not in the middle of the sill plate. The BPS offers increased flexibility while meeting the latest code requirements for 2 x 4 and 2 x 6 walls.
