Product Description
Simpson Strong-Tie ECC4.62-3.62 Triple 2X Beam, 4X Post End Column Cap is an engineered steel column cap from Simpson Strong-Tie, designed to provide strong, reliable column-beam connections in end-of-beam applications within wood construction. The extended seat design distributes load from the beam across an additional bearing surface that projects beyond one side of the column, delivering enhanced structural support at critical connection points.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What type of connection is the ECC4.62-3.62 designed for?
- The ECC4.62-3.62 is designed to provide strong column-beam connections in end-of-beam applications in wood construction. It supports a triple 2X beam on a 4X post and is specifically engineered for end-of-beam use where a standard centered cap is not applicable.
- What fasteners are required to install this column cap?
- Installation requires four 5/8" machine bolts in total - two for the beam connection and two for the post connection.
- How does the ECC help with load distribution?
- The seat of the column cap provides an additional surface area of bearing that extends beyond one side of the column. This design helps distribute the load from the beam and provides enhanced support at the connection point.
- Is the ECC4.62-3.62 rated for seismic and high-wind applications?
- Yes. Uplift loads have been increased for earthquake and wind loading, and the certified welds provide confidence in strength and loading performance under these demanding conditions. Bolt spacing also meets NDS code requirements to ensure optimal performance.
