The Strong-Tie DTT tension ties are safe, cost-effective connectors designed to meet or exceed code requirements for deck construction. The DTT1Z-KT is a kit that includes 4 DTT1Z connectors and all of the necessary SD connector screws and HDG SDWH timber screws.
These versatile DTT connectors are also load rated as a holdown for light-duty shearwalls and braced wall panel applications. For new construction or to make an existing current deck code-compliant, the DTT1Z can be used as a tension-tie to satisfy the 2015 IRC provision for a 750 lbs. lateral load connection to the house at four locations per deck.
