Simpson Strong-Tie purlin anchors offer solutions for wood-to-concrete and concrete-block connections which satisfy code requirements. The PA’s dual-embedment line allows installation in concrete or concrete block.
Installation:
- Use all specified fasteners; some models have extra fastener holes. See General Notes.
- Purlin anchor must hook around rebar.
- Allowable loads are for a horizontal installation into the side of a concrete or masonry wall.
- Strap may be bent one full cycle (bent vertical 90° then bent horizontal).
- PA51/PA68 — for additional length, an MST strap can be attached using 1/2″ bolts through existing holes.
- Refer to technical bulletin PA Foundation Straps for Uplift Resistance (T-PAUPLIFT) for additional information.
