HOLES FOR VGS Ideal for CLT The full thread VGS 011 inclined screws offer exceptional strength and allow to fasten inter-storey walls even of different thickness . CONCEALED The reduced height of the vertical flange allows hidden installation of the bracket within the floor panels . Steel thickness: 4 mm . 100 kN TENSILE On timber, the TTV angle bracket guarantees exceptional tensile strength (R1 .k up to 101,0 kN) and shear strength (R2 . k up to 59,7 kN) . Partial fastening possibilities CHARACTERISTICS FOCUS VIDEO Scan the QR Code and watch the video on our YouTube channel MATERIAL Bright zinc plated carbon steel, three dimensional perforated plate FIELDS OF USE Timber-to-timber tensile or shear joints • CLT, LVL • solid timber and glulam

CONCEALED HOLD DOWN Ideal on timber-to-timber both as a hold down at the ends of the walls and as shear angle bracket along the walls. It can be integrated into the floor panels. A SINGLE ANGLE BRACKET Use of a single type of angle bracket for both shear and tensile wall fastening. Optimisation and consistency of fastenings. Possibility of partial fastening with interposed acoustic profiles. PANELS AND BUILDING JOINTS | TITAN V | 229

EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATIONS | TTV240 BIAXIAL BEHAVIOR FOR SHEAR AND TENSILE FORCES The TTV240 angle bracket is an innovative connection system that can withstand both tensile and shear loads with high performance. Thanks to the increased thickness and the use of all thread screws for the fastening of the floor panel, it has an excellent behaviour in case of biaxial stress with different directions. Following a first phase of numerical modelling and analytical tests, an extensive experimental campaign was carried out, with the aid of both monotonic and cyclic tests, on 5-layer CLT panels, in...

EXPERIMENTAL STRENGTH DOMAIN PARTIAL FASTENING TOTAL FASTENING FULL SCALE TEST At the end of the single connection investigation, full-scale tests were performed on CLT walls, considering different h/b ratios of the wall panel.
