FAP/FJA/FSA Foundation Anchors

top

The FAP Plate connects the mudsill to the foundation, and is designed to provide lateral load resistance.

The FJA Foundation Joist Anchor nails or bolts directly into floor joists, providing a direct connection between the foundation and joist to resist uplift and lateral forces. FSA Foundation Stud Anchor nails or bolts to floor joists, or nails to the stud. Plywood sheathing may require notching with stud-to-foundation installation. See technical bulletin T-ANCHORSPEC for anchoring solutions.

Material: FAP—7 gauge; all others—12 gauge
