Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the purpose of a slotted bearing plate versus a standard cut washer?
- Bearing plates provide a greater bearing surface than standard cut washers and are designed to help strengthen and distribute the load at critical connections. They are typically used on foundation anchor bolts in place of cut washers to improve load transfer across the sill plate.
- Why does the BPS 3/4-3 have a slotted hole instead of a round hole?
- The slotted hole allows for adjustability to account for bolts that are not in the middle of the sill plate. This added flexibility makes installation more practical when anchor bolt placement is slightly off-center.
- What wall framing sizes is the BPS 3/4-3 compatible with?
- The BPS 3/4-3 is compatible with 2x4 and 2x6 wall framing, offering increased flexibility while meeting the latest code requirements for both member sizes.
- What bolt diameter is the BPS 3/4-3 designed for?
- The BPS 3/4-3 is designed for use with a 3/4 in. diameter bolt, making it suitable for standard foundation anchor bolt applications where a 3/4 in. fastener is specified.
