Product Overview
SSWH-PKT Strong-Wall High-Strength Steel Shearwall Portal Frame Connection Kit
The Strong-Wall high-strength steel shearwall portal frame connection kit (SSWH-PK) is an essential accessory designed to work together with Strong-Wall high-strength steel shearwalls (SSWH) in portal frame applications. This specialized kit includes two high-strength straps that, when properly installed with the shearwall, enable the system to achieve increased lateral load values as specified for portal frame configurations. Use of this connection kit is required to attain the listed higher load values associated with the portal frame system. These enhanced load capacities ensure a continuous load path and improved resistance to lateral forces, contributing to the overall stability and reliability of the structure.
