hurricane straps strong tie

[@escapefromny2012]

Simpson screws are probably better, stronger hold and less work. My opinion, if you can afford the screws, use them instead of nails. For those interested, this is a quote from Simpson about their screw: Specifically designed to replace nails in certain Simpson Strong-Tie connectors and is the only screw approved for that application. The #9 and #10 SD screws replace 10d and 16d nails, respectively. The single-fastener load capacity of the SD9 exceeds the capacity of a 10d common nail, while the single-fastener load capacity of the SD10 exceeds that of the 16d common nail.

Here on the coast, those are code, can’t build without them, and even if I could, I wouldn’t. Great information Kevin. Be well my friend.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Hatch, i wouldn't want to build without them either , even though we don't get crazy winds here you never know, thanks for watching.

[@terryrobinson1416]

As per code. Make sure you nail every hole. Great video

[@Robinson-Homestead]

I did lol don't want it blowing off.

[@wassim2k]

I installed mine just like you did. Then I saw a line on each one for top plate so there's no obstruction on the wall if drywall or other paneling is attached. You just have to raise them up to the line.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thanks for the info.

[@patrickday4206]

Yeah I cringed when I was watching 😂😂 even though it won't matter for his application

[@elizabethvela9572]

Thank you I'm learning more, God bless you always!!!

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thank you so much for watching my video.

[@livingcheap1625]

Can you tell me if these are the Simpson H2.5A straps? Simpson make a number of them, depending oh the gauge of metal I think. Thanks

[@Robinson-Homestead]

I'm Sorry I don't know but thank you so much for the comment.

[@shaneoconnell5150]

Simpson dictates to add hurricane straps to the exterior of the building, will not warranty when installed on the interior alone. You can double them up however one on the inside and one on the opposite side exterior.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thanks for sharing.

[@wampaswomps3975]

What do you do when installing ceiling and it hits the metal part that sticks out?

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Good question i don't know i never used them where i needed a ceiling. i will have to research it. Thanks for watching and Happy New Year.

[@mikenurm]

You slide them up so the part that juts out is above ceiling line

[@TheWoodHaven]

You gotta have them straps. Looks good.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Yep don't want the roof blowing off

[@stevesworld7831]

I’m wondering why you have ignored the plate line marking on the bracket. Isn’t it to be on top of the Plate???

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Good question im not sure about that

[@stevesworld7831]

@@Robinson-Homestead oh well. I appreciate the video.

[@davids5006]

No codes where I live but for the money it's wise to use them.. Adding them to my deck roof that is getting a metal roof

[@Robinson-Homestead]

You are so right thanks for the comment.

[@AD-hr4is]

On the bracket it says to uses on both sides. I guess they want us to buy more of them brackets and nails.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thanks for the information on the straps, i didn't know that or i would have added more of them i guess it's better than having my roof fly off in a big storm.

[@RagedContinuum]

Do you have to have the additional toe nails?

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Yes , thanks for watching.

[@Pete.Ty1]

👍👍👍

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thanks for the comment Pete

[@tedmcnair9709]

You don’t split the difference if you look at the hurricane tie it has a line on it that you line up with the top plate…🤦🏼

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thanks for the comment and info.

[@frankcarrerejr]

You know I don’t like the word hurricane. Not this weekend but the following weekend we are suppose to have a hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico. We will hav to wait and see where it goes.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Frank, the hurricane is happening in Florida as i am commenting back to you right now, i hope you guys are ok i will be praying for everyone's safety.

[@frankcarrerejr]
