WHT STANDARD
WHT is the angle bracket for timber made in 5 sizes which, in combination with the 5 washers available, determines 10 possible configurations to meet any static performance requirement.
Description
WHT ANGLE PLATES FOR TIMBER, A HOLD DOWN FOR EVERY STATIC PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENT
The 5 angle plate versions can be combined with one or more washers to allow designers and carpenters to find the suitable application, on both solid timber (CLT - Cross Laminated Timber) and framed (Platform frame) panels.
S355 steel, lateral reinforcing flanges and the larger diameter hole ensure high strength values also in case of partial nailing. The quality of the WHT plates is proven by multiple testing on the product and the related fasteners (nails, screws, threaded rods and chemical anchor).
Within the Seismic-rev research project framework, the joint and the related fastening elements were tested under static and cyclic loading, providing stiffness parameters (Kser) and ductility classes.
The WHT angle bracket is ideal for the construction of timber-to-concrete and timber-to-timber tensile joints for CLT panels and beams, framed structure, timber-based panels, LVL, solid timber and glulam.
