ESR-2762 | Most Widely Accepted and Trusted Page 2 of 8 minimum No. 18 gage [0.0466 inch (1.184 mm) total thickness] steel complying with ASTM A653 HSLAS Grade 60 with a minimum G90 galvanized coating [0.00076 inch (0.019 mm) on each side] and having a base-metal thickness of 0.0456 inch (1.158 mm). Each tooth is 0.375 inch (9.5 mm) long. The teeth are punched in pairs and formed at right angles to the face of the parent metal so that two teeth per hole occur along the length. The spacing along the longitudinal direction of each punched slot is 1 inch (25.4 mm) on center. 3.4.1 AS 18S6: Each plate has six teeth per square inch. The punched slots are spaced a minimum of 0.25 inch apart and are grouped in sets of three and four as shown in Figure 3. 3.4.2 AS 18S5: Each plate has five teeth per square inch. The punched slots are spaced a minimum of 0.25 inch apart and are grouped in sets of two and three as shown in Figure 4. 3.5 ASHP: Simpson Strong-Tie ASHP Hinge Plate Connectors are manufactured from minimum No. 18 gage [0.0460 inch (1.168 mm) total thickness] steel complying with ASTM A653, SS Grade 40 with a minimum G90 galvanized coating [0.00076 inch (0.019 mm) on each side] and having a minimum base-metal thickness of 0.0445 inch (1.130 mm). The Hinge Plate Connector consists of two 23/8” x 53/8” (60 mm by 137 mm) plates overlapping by approximately 23/8” (60 mm). Each plate of the connector is comprised of approximately 2.0” x 3.0” (51 mm x 76 mm) area of teeth that are 0.375 inch (9.5 mm) long. The teeth are punched in pairs and formed at right angles to the face of the parent metal so that two teeth per hole occur along the length. The spacing along the longitudinal direction of each punched slot is approximately 1 inch (25.4 mm) on center, and the pairs are spaced 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) on center along the length of the plate. Alternating rows of teeth are staggered 0.125 inch (3.18 mm) from adjacent rows. See Figure 6. 4.0 DESIGN AND INSTALLATION 4.1 General: The design, manufacture and installation of wood trusses employing the metal connector plates and hinge plate connectors must comply with IBC Section 2303.4 and IRC Section R502.11 or R802.10, as applicable. All truss plates are pressed into the wood for the full depth of their teeth by hydraulic-platen embedment presses, multiple roller presses that use partial embedment followed by full-embedment rollers, or combinations of partial embedment roller presses and hydraulic-platen embedment presses that feed trusses into a stationary finish roller press. Trusses must be assembled within the tolerances provided by the Truss Plate Institute (TPI) Quality Criteria for the Manufacture of Metal Plate Connected Wood Trusses, shown as Chapter 3 in ANSI/TPI 1, National Design Standard for Metal Plate Connected Wood Truss Construction. 4.2 ASHP Hinge Plate Connectors must be installed in pairs in the 180-degree position on opposite faces of truss chord members, which must be composed of sawn wood lumber with a minimum specific gravity of 0.42. The maximum allowable gap between the ends of the connected wood members at the ASHP hinge plate connector must be 1 inch (25.4 mm). 4.3 Design Values: 4.3.1 AS20, AS 20HS, AS 18, AS 18S, AS 18S6 and AS 18S5: Allowable design values for Simpson Strong- Tie AS 20, AS 20HS, AS 18, AS 18S, AS 18S6 and AS 18S5 metal connector plates to be used in the design of metal-plate-connected wood roof and floor trusses are shown in Tables 1 and 2 of this report. Allowable design values are applicable when the connection is made with identical plates on opposite sides of the joint. 4.3.2 ASHP: Allowable design values for Simpson Strong-Tie metal ASHP Hinge Plate Connectors are shown in Table 3. Imposed forces at the joint and internal stresses within the truss containing the joint must be determined using a structural model with a pin at the hinge joint location. The design load of the ASHP connector, due to combined shear and axial loads, must not exceed the Hankinson formula as follows: Fѳ ≤ Pѳ where, ѳ = (Fa v . ѳ = (Pa v a x (sin Ѳ)v x (cos Ѳ) . a v a v Ѳ ѳ and the length of the plate 5.0 CONDITIONS OF USE The Simpson Strong-Tie metal connector plates and hinge plate connectors for wood trusses described in this report comply with, or are suitable alternatives to what is specified in, those codes listed in Section 1.0 of this report, subject to the following conditions: 5.1 This evaluation report and the manufacturer’s published installation instructions, when required by the code official, must be submitted at the time of permit application. 5.2 Installation must comply with this report, the manufacturer’s published installation instructions, and the applicable code. In the event of a conflict between the manufacturer’s published installation instructions and this report, this report governs. 5.3 Each application for a building permit, where these metal connector plates and hinge plate connectors are to be used, must be accompanied by calculations, details and other documentation showing that the design, manufacture and proposed installation conforms with the requirements of the applicable code. Design and calculations must be prepared and sealed by a registered design professional where required by the statutes of the jurisdiction in which the project is to be constructed. 5.4 This report establishes allowable design values only. For items not covered by this report, such as truss design, fabrication, quality assurance and inspection, refer to ANSI/TPI 1, engineering drawings and the applicable code. 5.5 The applied design values used in the design of trusses using Simpson Strong-Tie metal connector plates, must not exceed the allowable lateral resistance, tension and shear values listed in Tables 1 and 2 of this report.
