<h1>Strong Frame® Ordering Process and Options</h1>
<div class="row">
  <div class="col-md-12">
    <p>
      Ordering a Strong Frame moment frame is a simple process similar to
      ordering a special connector or any other Simpson Strong-Tie product. Here
      are the steps:
    </p>
    <ol>
      <li>
        Obtain the designer&rsquo;s submittal documents specifying Strong Frame
        products.
      </li>
      <li>
        Locate the specified Strong Frame and anchorage model numbers in the
        designer’s documents.
      </li>
      <li>
        Request pricing by providing the model numbers to your preferred Simpson
        Strong-Tie product dealer.
      </li>
      <li>
        Pricing will be provided along with a dimension verification submittal
        package for the contractor to confirm overall frame and anchorage
        dimensions.
      </li>
      <li>
        Confirm/modify dimensions as needed and place order. Quoted lead time
        begins once Simpson Strong-Tie receives a purchase order and signed
        dimensional verification submittal package.
      </li>
    </ol>

    <h2>Strong Frame&reg; Ordering Options</h2>
    <p>
      Strong Frame moment frames will be delivered to the jobsite bundled
      together with all the necessary installation components. A typical Strong
      Frame product will have Yield-Link&reg; structural fuses installed to the
      beam (SMF), or end plates attached to the beam, preinstalled nailers,
      predrilled holes for utilities, grey paint and label stickers for easy
      assembly. During the design and verification process, many options can be
      specified to meet the individual needs of your project, such as the
      following:
    </p>
    <ul>
      <li>Omit nailers on the columns, beams or both.</li>
      <li>Omit holes in beam or column flanges when nailers are omitted.</li>
      <li>
        Frame to be utilized in cold-formed steel or steel structure. Options
        for beam top nailers can be provided to meet specific detailing
        requirements.
      </li>
      <li>Omit predrilled utility holes in beam or column webs.</li>
      <li>
        Additional or larger holes in beam or column flanges and webs. Size,
        location, and evaluation of elements shall be provided by the designer.
        Simpson Strong-Tie can assist.
      </li>
      <li>
        Hot-dip galvanized columns and beam. Yield-Links cannot be hot-dip
        galvanized.
      </li>
      <li>
        Omit grey primer and/or sticker labels for field finishing or protection
        of steel, when required.
      </li>
      <li>Treated lumber for nailers.</li>
      <li>
        Preassembled frames. (<a

        for availability depending on location and DOT limitations.)
      </li>
      <li>
        Preattached components such as shear tabs or buckets may be installed
        during fabrication when required. Design and detailing shall be provided
        by the designer, and exact locations provided and confirmed by the
        contractor.

        Other options may be available as required to meet job specific
        requirements.
