Installation

  • Use all specified fasteners.
  • WS structural screws supplied with connector. Substituting lag screws will reduce capacity.
  • Beams comprised of multiple plies must be laminated to act as a single member.
  • Multi-ply carrying beams may require additional connection of laminations at connector.
  • Beam height dimension (H) must be specified when ordering.
