6-3/4″ BEAM, 6X POST SDS
$173.41
Engineered for robust structural support, the CCQ™ Column Cap from Simpson Strong-Tie is designed specifically for use with 6-3/4 inch beams and 8x posts, making it an essential component for any construction project requiring reliable connections. Crafted from durable 3-gauge steel, it features certified welds that provide confidence in its strength and loading capabilities, essential for resisting uplift loads during earthquakes or high wind events. The unique design incorporates SDS screws, offering a streamlined installation process with a lower profile than traditional through bolts, while diamond holes allow for temporary fastening during construction. Finished with a protective gray paint, this column cap not only delivers in functionality but also enhances the overall appearance of your structural assembly.
Description
The CCQ is designed to provide strong column-beam connections in wood construction. The seat of the column cap provides an additional surface area of bearing that extends beyond each side of the column. The extended bearing surface helps distribute the load from the beam and provide support for the connection. The CCQ uses Strong-Drive® SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws for fast installation and to attach to a greater net section area of the column than a bolt attachment normally entails.
