Strong-Wall Wood Shearwalls are supplied with top-of-wall shear transfer plates, nuts, washers, and installation instructions.
The Strong-Wall Wood Shearwall features a holdown with visible front, back and side access to make it easier to install the anchorage attachment in various framing conditions. The front access opening also allows for inspection of the connection to the anchor bolt.
The shearwall can be trimmed and drilled in the field, and the top-of-wall connection provides options for a one- or two-sided plate solution. It is code listed (ICC-ES ESR-2652 and City of L.A. RR 25730 evaluated to the 2015 IRC/IBC) and allows for the same or higher loads than the previous SB shearwall in both seismic and wind applications.
