Simpson Strong-Tie FWANZ - ZMAX Galvanized Nail-On Foundation Wall Angle

Description

FWA foundation anchors connect the foundation or basement walls to the floor system to resist out-of-plane forces imposed by soil pressure. The FWAZ attaches through the mudsill into the foundation using the Simpson Strong-Tie Titen HD heavy-duty screw anchor, eliminating the need for separate anchor bolts into the rim joist. The new FWANZ fastens to the mudsill with nails, relying on other anchorage (by Designer) to anchor the rim joist to the foundation. The spacing of the FWA anchors is independent of the joist spacing, allowing for a multitude of options based on soil pressures.
