Simpson Strong-Tie IU, IUT, IUS, MIU, HU, U, IUSE and IUC Face Fix s are one-piece, non-welded three dimensional nailing plates, face-fix timber-to-timber connectors. Simpson Strong-Tie LUS, HUS and THM Face Fix s are one-piece, non-welded three dimensional nailing plates, face-fix timber-to-timber joist to truss connectors. Simpson Strong-Tie ITB, ITBS, HITB, HIUB and IUBS s are non-welded three dimensional nailing plates for timber-to-timber connectors, including I-joists, metal web floor trusses and solid timber joists. The ITB, HITB, IUB and HIUB s are one-piece, and the ITBS and IUBS s are two-piece adjustable angle joist connectors. Simpson Strong-Tie IUQ and HIUQ Face Fix s are non-welded three dimensional nailing plates, face-fix timber-to-timber joist to SIP panel connectors. Simpson Strong-Tie ZS Clips are non welded three dimensional nailing plates for use with I-joists or solid sawn timbers used as noggins between joists to support floor decks or partitions. The timber elements are fixed together with a range of fasteners. Typical examples are shown in Annexes and typical installations shown in Annex, Figure 1 The connectors are made from zinc-coated steel in accordance with EN 3 : 009 or AM A53 and stainless steel in accordance with EN 0- : 005, grade 1 or with a minimum characteristic 0.% yield stress of 0 MPa, a minimum % yield stress of 70 MPa and a minimum ultimate strength of 5 MPa, and are available in a range of sizes. They are intended for use in making structural end grain to side-grain joints in timber structures, as a connection between a wood-based joist and a solid-timber or wood-based header, ( IT, ITT, MIT, LBV, B, BI, HB, ITSE can also be used with a steel header), where Essential Requirement 1 Mechanical resistance and stability (CPD, Annex 1) applies. The connectors are for use in timber structures subject to the dry, internal conditions defined by service classes 1 and of EN 1995-1-1 : 00 + A1 : 00 (Eurocode 5) and for joints subject to static or quasi-static loading. The provisions made in this ETA are based on an assumed intended working life for the three-dimensional nailing plate of years. The indications given on the working life cannot be interpreted as a guarantee given by the producer, but are to be used as a means for selecting the appropriate product in relation to the expected economically reasonable working life of the works.
Page 3 of European Technical Approval ETA-0/00 Characteristics of product and methods of verification The assessment of fitness for the intended use (see part II, section 1) has been made in accordance with ETAG 015 : 00. The characteristic load-carrying capacities or design model calculation method for the products are given in the Tables in Annex which have been derived in accordance with ETAG 015 : 00. They should be used for designs in accordance with Eurocode 5. These values are based on the assumption that there is a maximum gap of 3 mm between the timber members (see Annex, Figure ), the members are laterally restrained and wane is not present in the timber at the joint. In some cases, capacities for intermediate widths can be interpolated. capacity is independent of the connector height. The connectors shall only be used with the fasteners specified in Annex. The performance of the fasteners has been determined in accordance with either ETA 0/0013 or Eurocode 5 (See also Annex 3 for further details). In relation to reaction to fire, the connectors are classified as class A1, in accordance with EN 131-1 : 007 + A1 : 009 and EC Decision 9/03/EC, amended by EC Decision 000/05/EC. Performance in relation to fire resistance would be determined for the complete structural element with any associated finishes; therefore, there are no aspects of performance relevant to this aspect of this Essential Requirement for joist connectors (three-dimensional nailing plates). According to the manufacturer s declaration, the product has been compared with the dangerous substances detailed in Council Directive 7/79/EEC (as amended) and listed on the database established on the EC construction website to verify that it does not contain such substances above the acceptable limits. The connectors have been assessed as having satisfactory durability and serviceability when used in timber structures using the timber species (including timbers preserved with organic solvent, boron diffusion and related preservatives) described in Eurocode 5 and subject to the dry, internal conditions defined by service classes 1 and. Each connector bears the manufacturer s identification mark and the product. The CE Marking appears on the packaging. No performance has been determined (NPD) in relation to ductility of a joint under cyclic testing. The contribution to the performance of structures in seismic zones, therefore, has not been assessed. NPD in relation to the joint s stiffness properties is to be used for the analysis of the serviceability limit state. 3 Evaluation of Conformity and CE marking 3.1 Attestation of Conformity system The system of Attestation of Conformity applied to this product shall be that laid down in the CPD, Annex III, (ii), first possibility (referred to as System +). 3. Responsibilities 3..1 Tasks for the manufacturer factory production control The manufacturer shall continue to operate a factory production control system.

Assumptions under which the fitness of the product for the intended use was favourably assessed.1 Manufacturing Simpson Strong-Tie, IT, ITT, MIT, LBV, B, BI, HB, ITSE, IU, IUT, IUS, MIU, HU, U, LUS, HUS, IUSE, ITB, HITB, ITBS, IUB, HIUB, IUBS, IUQ, HIUQ, IUC, THM and ZS s for engineered timbers are manufactured in accordance with the provisions of this European Technical Approval using the manufacturing processes as identified in the inspection of the plant by the British Board of Agrément and laid down in the technical documentation.. Installation..1 Joints A connector (three-dimensional nailing plate) is deemed fit for its intended use provided: the connector capacity is calculated in accordance with the manufacturer s literature joints are designed in accordance with Eurocode 5 or an appropriate national code, under the responsibility of an engineer experienced in timber structures verifiable calculation, notes and drawings are prepared taking account of the loads to be resisted the requirements detailed in part II, section 1, of this ETA, relating to the timber members being joined are taken into account, for example, lateral restraint and wane joints are designed for the specified fasteners and grade or of joist and header the actual end bearing capacity of the joist (end grain member) to be used with the connector is checked by the designer of the joist to ensure it is not less than the connector capacity and, if necessary, a connector with a larger end bearing capacity substituted to suit. The end bearing capacity of I-joists with solid sawn timber flanges shall be based on the full connector seat bearing area and the appropriate characteristic stress perpendicular to grain for the particular grade of timber. For I-joists with LVL flanges, the joist bearing area shall be taken as 0% of the full connector seat bearing area...

Top fix connectors (Design Model and performance tables) The characteristic load-carrying capacities for the IT, ITT, MIT, LBV, B, BI, HB and ITSE connectors are given in the tables in Annex which have been derived in accordance with ETAG 015 : 00. They should be used for designs in accordance with Eurocode 5. These values are based on the assumption that there is a maximum gap of 3 mm between the timber members, the members are laterally restrained and wane is not present in the timber at the joint. Capacities for intermediate widths can be interpolated. capacity is independent of the connector height. The connectors shall only be used with the fasteners specified in the relevant table in Annex.
