Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the MSTAM24Z designed to do?
- The Simpson Strong-Tie MSTAM24Z is designed to resist tension loads in wood-to-masonry uplift applications. It connects wood framing to either concrete or grout-filled concrete masonry units (GFCMU) and supports floor-to-floor clear span applications.
- What fasteners are required to install the MSTAM24Z?
- Installation requires (9) 0.148 in. x 3 in. common nails along with either (5) 1-1/4 in. x 2-1/4 in. Titen Turbo screws when attaching to GFCMU, or (5) 1-1/4 in. x 1-3/4 in. Titen Turbo screws when attaching to concrete.
- Why does the MSTAM24Z use a staggered nail pattern?
- The staggered nail pattern is specifically incorporated into the MSTAM design to help minimize wood splitting during installation, making it safer and more effective than field-fabricated alternatives.
- What makes the ZMAX coating beneficial for this strap tie?
- ZMAX galvanization provides extra corrosion resistance, making the MSTAM24Z well suited for exterior applications and installations involving treated wood, where standard galvanized coatings may be insufficient over time.
