The Simpson Strong-Tie H3 Hurricane Tie is a structural connector designed to join a 2x rafter to the top plate while resisting uplift and lateral forces caused by high wind and seismic events. This essential framing hardware helps protect roof structures from the damaging effects of severe weather and ground movement, ensuring safer construction and improved structural integrity.
High winds and seismic activity can create significant uplift and lateral stresses on roof assemblies. The H3 ties these critical connection points together, transferring forces safely from the rafter to the top plate and down through the building's frame. By anchoring the roof more securely to the walls, this connector reduces the risk of roof failure during storms and earthquakes.
