The Simpson Strong-Tie RTR connectors are used when a 2x member crosses another. The RTRZ rigid tie connector is approved to be installed with the specified nails or with Strong-Drive SD connector screws. The Strong-Tie RTRZ rigid tie connector features a Zmax finish for added corrosion resistance and requires the use of hot-dip galvanized fasteners which meet the specifications of ASTM A153.

• Use all specified fasteners.
  
• Install vertical members first, then attach horizontal members for easier alignment.
  
• Seat wood member in bracket with a C-clamp before securing to aid positioning and prevent skewing.
  
• Always follow manufacturer's instructions when using power tools and building equipment.
  

NOTE: The correct fasteners installed in the correct position must be used to achieve published load values
