ESR-2762 | Most Widely Accepted and Trusted Page 3 of 8 reductions must be in accordance with the applicable code. 5.6 All lumber used in the fabrication of trusses using Simpson Strong-Tie metal connector plates and hinge plate connectors must be graded in compliance with the applicable building code, and must have a moisture content not exceeding 19 percent at the time of assembly. Wet service factors from ANSI/TPI 1 Section 6.4.6 must be applied to the table values when the lumber moisture content exceeds 19 percent. Allowable values shown in the tables of this report are not applicable to metal connector plates embedded in either fire-retardant- treated lumber or preservative-treated lumber. 5.7 Metal connector plates and hinge plate connectors must be installed in pairs, on opposite faces of truss members. 5.8 Galvanized G60 and G90 metal connector plates and hinge plate connectors subject to corrosive environments must be protected in accordance with ANSI/TPI 1 Section 6.5. 5.9 Design of diaphragms is beyond the scope of this evaluation report. 5.10 Conditions of Use for ASHP Hinge Plate Connectors Only: 5.10.1 The applied design values used in the design of trusses using Simpson Strong-Tie ASHP hinge plate connectors must not exceed the values listed in Table 3 of this report. Load combination must be in accordance with the applicable code. No adjustments for duration of load are permitted. 5.10.2 The final installation of the ASHP hinge plate connectors is limited to the applications of the connector plates installed in pairs to truss chord members, where the plates are oriented in the 180-degree position in the final installation of the trusses. The ASHP hinge plate connector must be installed with a maximum 1-inch gap (25.4 mm) between the truss chord members. Installation in other configurations is beyond the scope of this report. 5.10.3 Use of Hinge Plate Connectors is limited to prefabricated trusses. Field installation is prohibited. Compliance with the IBC Section 2303.4 or the IRC Sections R502.11 and R802.10, as applicable, is required. 5.10.4 Allowable compression design value in Table 3 is valid for applications where lateral translation across the joint is prevented by the installation of a single piece of sheathing continuous across the joint and connected to each chord member at the joint by a nail penetrating through the sheathing and into the chord section at a location no more than 3 inches from the chord end at the hinged joint, or by other special measures specified by the building designer and acceptable to the code official. In all applications, the building designer shall not rely upon the ASHP hinge plate connector for transfer of any loads in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the truss, such as for design of load transfer at joints of unblocked diaphragms. 5.10.5 Materials and general design considerations shall be in accordance with Chapter 6 of ANSI/TPI 1, truss member design procedures shall be in accordance with Chapter 7 of ANSI/TPI 1, and metal connector plate joint design shall be in accordance with Chapter 8 of ANSI/TPI 1. 5.10.6 Due to the rotation provided at the joint of the ASHP hinge plate connectors, the truss design must be modeled with a pin at the hinge joint location. In the final installed condition, shear loads must be applied within the plane of the hinge plate, at a 90-degree angle to the long axis. 6.0 EVIDENCE SUBMITTED 6.1 Data in accordance with the National Design Standard for Metal-plate-connected Wood Truss Construction, ANSI/TPI 1-2002, 2007 and 2014. 6.2 Data in accordance with the ICC-ES Acceptance Criteria for Metal Hinge Plate Connectors for Wood Trusses (AC283), dated November 2015 (editorially revised January 2021). 6.3 Quality documentation in accordance with the ICC- ES Acceptance Criteria for Quality Documentation (AC10). 7.0 IDENTIFICATION 7.1 Each Simpson Strong-Tie metal truss connector plate is identified by the product stamp embossed into the surface of the plate as shown in the table below.
