Description:
Notice - This connector is designed for Rough Cut lumber NOT nominal lumber (most common).
The Simpson Strong-Tie BC series offers dual purpose post cap/base for light cap or base connections. The BC80R post base is approved to be installed with the specified nails or Strong-Drive SD connector screws. The Strong-Tie BC80R post base features a G90 galvanized finish for added corrosion resistance and requires the use of hot-dip galvanized fasteners which meet the specifications of ASTM A153.
Installation:
- Use all specified fasteners.
- Do not install bolts into pilot holes
- BC: install with 16d commons or 16d x 2-1/2" joist hanger nails.
- Post bases do not provide adequate resistance to prevent members from rotating about the base and therefore are not recommended for non top-supported installations (such as fences or unbraced carports).
- To tie multiple 2x members together, the Designer must determine the fasteners required to join members to act as one unit without splitting the wood.
NOTE: The correct fasteners installed in the correct position must be used to achieve published load values
