Strong Frame™ Ordinary Moment Frame

Expand your frame of reference

Traditionally, moment frames have been time-intensive to design and labor-intensive to install. Simpson Strong-Tie has simplified both by creating a cost-effective alternative to traditional frames - the Strong Frame™ ordinary moment frame. In 2010, we've expanded the product line by adding a new 16' tall column and 14', 18' and 20' wide beams. See new catalog.

Pre-designed moment frame solutions: Designers can choose from 368 engineered frames. Solutions provided for both prescriptive wind and seismic areas.
100% bolted connections: Install frames faster with no field welding required. No need to have a welder on site, or a special welding inspector.
Prescriptive wall bracing solutions: Design the most common framing applications in just five easy steps.
Code Listed: The Strong Frame ordinary moment frame is code listed (see IAPMO ES ER-164).
Custom-order sizes: Our made-to-order Strong Frame program can quickly specify, manufacture and deliver any sized frame, using our current plate girder geometries.
