Simpson Strong-Tie HHETA40 – 40-in. Galvanized Heavy Embedded Truss Anchor

Product Details

The HHETA provides an engineered method to attach roof trusses securely to concrete and masonry walls. This extra-heavy embedded truss anchor features staggered nail patterns to strengthen uplift resistance and can be used in pairs on single- and multi-ply trusses. The versatile HHETA can be installed straight or field-bent around truss or rafter members.

Key Features

• Indented embedment line ensures accurate embedment depth
• Compatible with the Simpson Strong-Tie TSS and TBP8 moisture barrier plate
• Load rated for wind and seismic forces

Material

• 14 gauge

Finish

• Galvanized

Installation

• Use all specified fasteners
• Embedded 4″ into a 6″ min. concrete beam or 8″ nominal grouted block wall.
• For mislocated truss anchors which are greater than 1/8″ but less than 1-1/2″ from the face of the truss a shim must be provided. Shim design by truss engineer. When gap is greater than 1-1/2″ abandon existing embedded truss anchor and install new anchor per designer.
• Minimum spacing of single anchors is twice the embedment depth for full load. For closer spacing see loads for double anchor installation.
• In double anchor installations install anchors with spoons facing outward and straps spaced no more than 1/8″ wider than the rafter/truss width. Do not install nails where the straps overlap when wrapped over the rafter/truss.
• Straps do not need to be wrapped over the rafter/truss to achieve tabulated loads unless noted otherwise.
