The Wood Strong-Wall® shearwall can be installed around window and door openings, on garage wing walls, interior walls or any other locations where increased lateral resistance is required. Wood Strong-Wall® panels can reduce the amount of wall space required for shearwalls, allowing for more windows and doors in house designs.

Simpson Strong-Tie® Wood Strong-Wall® shearwalls are code-listed under the 2006 IRC/IBC (ICC-ES ESR-1267) and conform to the latest ICC-ES Acceptance Criteria (AC130).
  • Prefabricated: The high-strength wall comes with the sheathing and holdowns pre-attached. Additional installation hardware is included.
  • Easy To Install: Reusable templates locate the required holdown and mudsill anchor bolts accurately in the foundation. The walls are then placed over the anchor bolts followed by a simple top and bottom plate attachment.
  • Installation Guide: Detailed instructions attached to every wall.
  • State-of-the-Art Testing: Third-party documentation of our cyclic testing verifies high design loads.
  • Quality Assurance: No-Equal quality-controlled manufacturing reduces inspection problems commonly faced with site-built shearwalls.
  • Support and Service: Simpson Strong-Tie provides the best engineering technical support and experienced field representation to assist you.
