Simpsons Light Tension Ties are the perfect solution for resisting tension loads when attaching wood to masonry or concrete walls. They are skillfully designed for horizontal purlin applications and vertical holdown applications. Simpsons LTTP2 option features an extruded anchor bolt hole to accommodate 1/2″, 5/8″, and 3/4″ bolt diameters. It also includes obround holes spaced 3″ apart for I-joist purlins and square holes spaced to accommodate the narrow face of 2x solid-sawn purlins. The LTTP2 model can be installed vertically on the wide face of a 2×4 stud. It can be fastened successfully with nails or Strong Dive SD Connector screws.
