A maker of structural connectors, anchors and fasteners with engineering tools and technical guidance for wood framing and concrete.
Simpson Strong-Tie makes structural connectors, hurricane ties, post bases, anchors and fasteners, and publishes engineering guides and online tools. These small metal parts hold wood frames together and tie them to foundations, which matters when wind tries to lift a carport or a shed in Nashville.
Connectors work only when the right type and fasteners are used as instructed. The maker publishes load tables and installation details, and we follow them. For larger or unusual buildings, we use engineering and tell you when a simple connector will not be enough.
