DIAPHRAGM SPLINE STRAP 5.75 X 96 X 14 GA
$62.45
Innovatively designed for enhanced structural performance, this diaphragm spline strap from Simpson Strong-Tie is crafted from durable 14-gauge steel, ensuring robust support for various applications. With pre-punched screw holes, installation becomes faster and more efficient, while its unique design reduces or even eliminates the need for edge-milling of cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels, making it a smart choice for builders seeking efficiency without compromising quality. Engineered to provide tested load capacities, this strap allows for value-engineered solutions that require fewer screws than traditionally calculated, optimizing both time and resources. Additionally, the galvanized (G90) finish offers superior corrosion resistance, further extending the product’s lifespan and reliability in diverse environments.
Description
The MDSS96 surface spline is 95-1/2 in. long, is attached with Strong-Drive® SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws and is an ideal solution for CLT diaphragms. For CLT manufacturers, it reduces costs by eliminating or reducing time for milling at panel edges. And since our tabulated values are based on tests, not just calculations, Designers can value-engineer a solution using fewer screws than calculated solutions would allow.
