TBE Truss Bearing Enhancers
The TBE transfers load from the truss or girder to plates for bearing-limited conditions, and provides exceptional uplift capacity. Replaces nail-on scabs that provide lower load transfer, or in some cases, an additional ply when needed for bearing. One size works with any number of girder plys.
The table lists allowable loads for TBE4 used on 2x4 and TBE6 used on 2x6 top plates. The table gives the different loads calculated for TBE with and without wood bearing. See Fastener Schedule and Alternate Installation below.
Material: 18 gauge.
Finish: Galvanized. See Corrosion-Resistance.
