The main types of fasteners in the frame construction
Fastening frame house is made of cold-rolled steel sheet of 2-4 mm. It has the form of perforated elements (i.e., numerous openings) plates, shoes, parts, supports, etc. Each element has a plurality of embodiments that differ in size, stiffening ribs, configuration, size holes.
The main types of fixture:
fastening plate - they are used for connecting joints, which bear the main burden in tension. Splice plates boards and beams. The technology of using plates simple. They are placed on the connection on opposite sides, and then tightening the bolts the two holes, the holes remaining in the nails are hammered. The diameter of the holes determines the size of bolts and nails.
mounting brackets
They are used for fastening the corner joints. They are made so as to provide maximum stability during bending loads compound. With corners of frames interconnected walls, supporting structure elements subtending the beam, and direct attach rafters. In short, over the wide range of applications. Angles as plate and can be screwed to tighten and punching nails. Bolts are used only for securing the strongest corner joints.Universal support. This fixture is used for beams and has two parts: the left and right sides. This support can be used for beams of any cross-section. Both parts are mounted on opposite sides with nails and bolts.
beam holder It is used in the case where the overlapping ends to fit different construction elements. These holders are attached to both sides of the beam, so made a right-hand and left-hand fasteners.
Specialized support beams It applied under various section of load-bearing structures, so the fasteners are manufactured in various sizes. Variants with open wings and hidden, depending on the fixture for subsequent or trimmed.
shoes racks set on the foundation. Most often they are fastened into the concrete (anchors), then to fix it on the supporting structures rack. Can mount on a wooden base. In the construction of a frame house country use different types of shoes:
1. To pour in the concrete foundation.
2. For fixing the shoe by means of screws.
The design of the shoe allows it to rotate around its axis, it can be adjusted in height.
connectors applied to the most complex parts, arranged in the roof structure, which uses longest spans more than 7.5 meters. Connector - a plate on which it is secured by means of needle punching a plurality of spines. This fastener is driven into the assembly connectable across the fibers from opposite sides. This allows the fasteners to assemble into one unit at a time of up to three parts.
