Simpson Strong‑Tie offers a wide variety of holdown devices designed and tested to address many applications and load demands. The DTT2 Tension Tie & Holdown is designed for lighter‑duty holdown applications on single or double studs. It can also be utilised in horizontal applications as a tension tie to provide balustrade or similar support. It installs easily with the Strong‑Drive® SDS Heavy‑Duty Connector screws (included). The DTT2 is ideal for retrofit or new construction projects. They provide high-strength, post-pour, concrete-to-steel connections.
The DTT2 is a safe, cost-effective way to attach deck-railing posts to the deck framing for stronger, safer railings. Because the post is tied back into the deck joists, rather than to the boundary joist alone, the connection is stronger than typical through-bolt installations.
Please check the Corrosion Information to see if it is suitable for your application.
