frequently asked questions
The connection has successfully been in use for over ten years.
The connection is installed with simple common post installed anchors and techniques. The design includes a small erection bolt to hold the connection in place while post-installed anchors are installed, facilitating construction and easing worker fatigue.
In general, any anchor suitable for seismic loading can be used. However, specific anchors from certain manufacturers allow higher design values and thus allow higher seismic shear loads.
