PERFORATED TAPE TWO THICKNESSES Simple and effective system to achieve floor bracing. It is available in thicknesses of 1,5 and 3,0 mm. CLIPSET Simply and effortlessly secures the ends of the tape in many applications of floor and roof bracing. SPECIAL STEEL Made with S350 GD high strength steel. The 1,5 mm thick version offers extreme resistance to tensile forces with minimal thickness. CHARACTERISTICS FOCUS tension fastening MATERIAL Carbon steel with bright zinc plated perforated tape. FIELD OF USE Timber-to-timber joints • solid timber and glulam • CLT, LVL • timber based panels 386 | LBB | ANGLE BRACKETS, HANGERS AND PERFORATED PLA

BRACINGS This system is ideal for creating safe, quick and effective bracing. The use of high quality steel ensures that the tapes reduced thickness does not compromise the tensile strength. STABILITY The CLIPSET can be added to the ends of the 60 mm version to achieve secure and safe fastening on any structure. ANGLE BRACKETS, HANGERS AND PERFORATED PLATES | LBB | 387

STATIC VALUES | TIMBER-TO-TIMBER TENSILE JOINT STRENGTH OF THE SYSTEM The tensile strength of the R1,d system is the minimum between the Rax,d plate side tensile strength and the shear resistance of the connectors used for fastening ntot · Rv,d. If the connectors are placed in several consecutive rows and the load direction is parallel to the grain, the following sizing criteria must be applied. Where mi is the number of rows of connectors parallel to the grain and ni is the number of connectors arranged in the same row.
