Ideal for high-seismic areas, Simpson Strong-Tie® FC connectors are the optimal solution for fixed-clip bypass framing. FC clips are often welded to the structure in high-seismic zones, but they also feature anchorage holes so that concrete screws or powder-actuated fasteners can be used to attach the clip to the structure. This adds versatility to the product, making it suitable for a variety of applications to fit your project. In addition to its anchorage utility, the FC clip features prepunched screw holes for the framing attachment, eliminating the need for predrilling holes or worrying that fastener placement doesn’t match the Designer specifications. This model of FC connector is manufactured using heavy-duty 10-gauge steel to provide optimal resistance to in-plane seismic load.
Installation:
- Use the specified type and number of fasteners and anchors.
