Girder Tiedowns – HUGT series<br />
The HUGT series high uplift girder tiedowns can be installed on<br />
beams and top chords of trusses with slopes from 0° to 34°.<br />
Truss & Rafter<br />
Materials: 7 gauge<br />
Finish: <strong>USP</strong> primer<br />
Codes: Load values are derived from data<br />
submitted to various North American<br />
building code evaluators.<br />
<strong>Installation</strong>:<br />
• Use all specified fasteners. See Product <strong>Notes</strong>, page 10.<br />
• Install the HUGT over the beam or truss (see “W” dimension<br />
on chart for appropriate width).<br />
• Install (4) LBP58-TZ washers if (2) 5/8˝ tension bolts are<br />
used (wood installation) or (2) 3/4˝ dia. washers if a 3/4˝ dia.<br />
anchor bolt is used (concrete installation).<br />
• Attached members shall be designed to resist applied loads.<br />
• Moisture barrier may be required.<br />
Concrete <strong>Installation</strong><br />
(2) 3 /4˝ washers are<br />
required if 3 /4˝ dia. bolt is<br />
used (washer not included)<br />
Wood <strong>Installation</strong><br />
(4) LBP58-TZ washers<br />
are required if 5 /8˝ dia.<br />
bolt is used (washer not<br />
included) see chart on<br />

1) Factored resistances have been increased 15% for short-term loads such as wind and earthquake; no further increase allowed.<br />
2) Factored resistances apply where roof pitch is between 3:12 and 8:12.<br />
3) Additional anchorage products to be designed by others.<br />
4) Minimum nail embedment shall be 8 nail diameters (typ.).<br />
5) Designer must specify anchor bolt type, length, and embedment.<br />
