This page for Canadian customers only.

The industry standard column cap. Precision factory gang-punched holes speed installation on this product line. Specifically designed to meet Canadian code requirements.
Canadian Column Caps Discontinued in 2012
The unique Canadian versions of column caps are no longer necessary due to changes in the CSA Standard 086 – Engineered Design in Wood (2009). Please use the standard column caps.
See page 69 of the Canadian Catalog (C-CAN12) for factored resistance loads of standard CC Column Caps.
Material: CC3 1/4C, CC44C, CC46C, CC48C, CC64C, CC66C, CC68C, CC6-7 1/4C—7 gauge; all others—3 gauge
Finish: Simpson gray paint; may be ordered HDG; CCO - no finish.
Installation:
Options:
CCO - Column cap only (no straps) may be ordered for field-welding to pipe or other columns. No loads apply. CCO dimensions are the same as CC.
CCOB - Any two CCOs may be specified for back-to-back welding to create a cross beam connector. Use the table loads; the load is no greater than the lesser element employed.
CCC/CCT - Cross Column Cap/T Column Cap. 7 gauge stirrups may be welded to column cap sides. Factored uplift resistances do not apply to side stirrups. Column cap only (no straps) may be ordered for field welding to pipe or other columns. No loads apply. Specify CCOC/CCOT.
The following criteria apply:
- The side stirrup maximum factored download cannot exceed 40% of the factored normal resistance in the table for the unmodified product, and cannot exceed 14,675 lbs (65.36 kN). The sum of the loads cannot exceed the tabulated resistance. The column width in the direction of the beam width must be the same as the beam width: W1.
- Specify the stirrup height from the top of the cap. The minimum H2 or H3 for the stirrup is 6 1/2").
- The L dimension may vary depending on W3 or W4.
Ordering examples: A CCC66C with W3 = 5 1/2", H2 and H3 = 6 1/2" is a CC66C column cap with 5 1/2" beams on each side with all beam seats flush.
