AKR-Z

Angle bracket

These brackets allow optimum connection between wood and other building materials such as concrete and steel. This is an economic connection that can be used in many areas. The types AKR and AKR-L differ in having either a hole or an oblong hole for the bolt, in the smaller flange.. AKR bracket is 3 mm thick and the edges are reinforced with rib.

* Refer to Characteristic Capacity table columns for type of fasteners that can be used in Flange A. Capacities vary depending on fastener type used.

** The bolt design resistance requirement R#,d is determined from (bolt factor x connection design load F#,d) for the required load direction and fastener. Refer to the Simpson Strong-Tie anchor product range for suitable anchors. Typical anchor solutions depend on the concrete type, spacing and edge distances.
