Sam, its important to note that when installing these connectors, the screw length is not the same for all holes. The screws on the face of the bracket (what is going straight into the ridge) are 1.5in screws while the ones driven diagonally should be 2.5 inches. Simpson has a great website that has detailed installation instructions which specify how many screws/nails and what sizes you need to achieve the advertised load rating. I have a positive placement gun for hanger install, but prefer the screws as they seem to not make the wood explode when you drive 8 nails in close proximity, although the tradeoff is that screws are slower.

Had a coworker 10 yrs ago, complain about having to install these brackets, hurricane, we live in the pacific north west, a couple years later we had 50-65mph winds, they live much higher elevation, even higher wind gust, they were real happy then to have used the brackets.

Just a note. If you are in a cold climate the ties should be installed on the exterior. If you are installing on a house and the walls are going to be drywalled. The clips will create just a slight amount of condensation during the winter months. This condensation will attract dust/smoke etc. and turn dark. This will show up on your painted walls within the first winter. There will be a dark spot every 16-24” at the tops of your painted walls

When I built a chicken shed 12x12, I used gusseted rafters to cut down on the amount of strong ties needed. all I had to do was add in some blocking to keep the rafters spaced correctly and only had to use the hurricane ties on the rafter tails to top plate. The saw fits are open for ventilation and the sheds ben through sustained 80 mph winds with no issues.

I’m going to be using them today thanks to your video. The wind blew out the side off my barn because it didn’t have anything holding it in place. I never knew about these until I watched your video.

The fins should always face inside of the building. One reason is for the inspection should you need one, but the main one is to keep them out of any potential weather damage. Even zinc coated metal will rust over time if the conditions are right.

Speaking from an Architectural design background, yes there is a preferred mounting direction. It is correct that Simpson states that they can be used on the inside or the outside and facing either way, because the sheer strength of them works in any direction. However, setting that aside, you want to install them on the inside, because then they are better protected from the elements. 👍

I've been following this shed build for my project but I didn't see you use these so I checked with a GC YT page I follow & he had a shed build that I watched. He used the diamond bracket in the opposite direction from how you did. His videos didn't say why, I was just assuming that's just how you use them. We used the nails vs the screws because they have a stronger shear strength & we're in florida, don't need to risk things. lol

As to installing the Simpson Ties on the inside or the outside of the wall, Simpson states, on their website, that either side is acceptable. My decision was to install on the outside because the soffit material would hide the ties from view and, there is more rafter material to attach to on the outside of the building wall. My trusses have the truss base on the inside. …..just my humble opinion.
@chrisvanweele6641
@chrisvanweele6641 2 жыл бұрын
There is left and right hand twist rafter ties. Don't use the screws if you are planning to finish the walls on the inside, the heads will hold wall material out. If you install ties on the outside use longer nails on the top plate portion so the grab the framing.

Agreed. I can see the need for the ties at the walls but those at the ridge poll? No, sorry.

There's hundreds of roofs out there without those that are fine and will be long after we're gone.

Great stuff. Thanks! With the rafters directly across from one another on the main beam, how do you get the rafter saddles to go on opposite sides without the screws hitting each other? It seems that the screws would be in the exact same spot on opposite sides and hit each other going through the main beam. Also, if you have those ties on the inside, how do you sheetrock over those giant heads on those screws?

I'm going to take a shot at your question: I say the diamond brackets may be installed either direction, depending on what side of the wall you're going to be on when installing. And if you've already sheathed the roof, then you really only have one easy way to install them--and that's the way you did. I'm also going to guess that not only can you flip them around, but you can fasten them to either side of the wall. So, there would be four ways to do it.

I am a licensed general contractor. FYI, Those hurricane straps are supposed to be installed with the proper Tie nails. Screws don't have the shear strength that a nail does. Therefore, it defeats the whole reason for using hurricane straps. Plus, the screw heads prevent you from installing wallboard flush to the wall.

The screws are engineered for the ties. The screws are made by Simpson specifically for use with their ties.

I have never felt those ties were worth a darn. In my opinion the strap should go from the rafter all the way to the sill plate to do any good. Just my opinion. Too many joints in between.

So a completely off the wall comment that has nothing to do with the shed. Sam you realized you said “building” 7 times on the first 57 seconds. LOL just keeping it light. 🤪

I think the first two were accidental, then by the third I realized what I did, then decided to make it a punch line all at once. It's rare that something like that happens! :)

I am not in favor of these brackets! Why you ask? Every fastener that you use compromises the structural integrity of the adjoining structure. I know a lot of you are going to disagree!. To me some beady eyed glasses wearing kid came up with this concept to push more building code regulations! Just like arc fault breakers in a house!

Never use screws on stuff like that, that snap in earthquakes instead of flex.

I like your channel but sometimes fined them to. Much obvious info, not enough old style content. Most of your watchers know how to but are just trying to follow your journey like before. Again can’t wish you all the best but little tedious now

I have found the opposite is true over the years creating content. People who know, don't come here to learn. After the immediate viewing by subscribers, the long term viewership and eventual majority will be here to learn and want to know all the details.
