H Hybrid Connectors: Seismic & Hurricane Ties for
Wood Truss or Joist to CFS Wall
Designed to provide seismic and wind ties for wood trusses or joists-to-CFS walls, this versatile line may be used for general purposes, strongback attachments, and as all-purpose ties where one member crosses another.
HS24 attaches the bottom chord of a truss or rafter at pitches from 0:12 to 4:12 to steel top plates.
Material: See table.
Finish: Galvanized. Selected products available in stainless steel or ZMAX®. See Corrosion Information.
Installation:
- Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes
- H1 can be installed with flanges facing inward (reverse of illustration 1).
- Hurricane ties do not replace solid blocking.
- H2.5, H3, and H6 ties are only shipped in equal quantities of rights and lefts.

- Allowable loads on wood have been increased 60% for wind or earthquake loading with no further increase allowed; reduce where other load duration factors govern.
- Loads are based on attachment of coldformed steel vertical stud members having a minimum thickness of 33 mil (20 ga).
- Hurricane Ties are shown installed on the outside of wall for clarity. Installation inside of wall is acceptable. For Continuous Load Path, connections must be on same side of wall.
- When cross-grain bending or cross-grain tension cannot be avoided, mechanical reinforcement to resist such force should be considered.
- H10S can have an offset of maximum 3/4" from the center of the CFS vertical stud based on AISI General Provisions Standard Section C1 (In-Line Framing) for a reduced uplift of 890 lbs. (DF/SP) and 765 lbs. (SPF) provided all edge distances are met.
