                <h1>LTP4/LTP5 Framing Angle/Plate Installation Guide</h1>
                <p>The LTP4 lateral tie plate transfers shear forces for top plate-to-rim board or blocking connections. Nail holes are spaced to prevent wood splitting for single and double top-plate applications. May be installed over plywood sheathing.</p>
                <p>The larger LTP5 spans subfloor at the top of the blocking or rim board. The embossments enhance performance.</p>
