1) Predrilled holes are not required.
2) Allowable Stress Design (ASD) values have
been adjusted for a load duration factor, CD, of
1.6 corresponding to a ten-minute load duration
(i.e. wind or earthquake loading) in accordance
with the NDS. The ASD loads do not apply to loads
of other durations.
3) Allowable loads are based on a minimum stemwall
thickness of 6", minimum distance from the end
of the concrete wall of 4" and minimum anchor
spacing of 8".
4) Uplift deformation based on wood connection
strength.
5) Minimum concrete strength f'c = 2,500 psi.
6) NAILS: 10d x 1-1/2 nails are
0.148" dia. x 1-1/2" long.

2) Refer to drawings for installation type and denition of the various load directions.
3) If installing over plywood, use 8d common nails for 100% of table load.
4) 8d common ( 0.131" dia. x 2-1/2" long) nails may be substituted for 8d x 1-1/2" nails
with no allowable load reduction.
5) NAILS: 8d x 1-1/2 nails are 0.131" dia. x 1-1/2" long.
For installation into concrete slabs. The FA3 features a split ange
for nailing to both mudsill and stud for greater framing versatility.
Materials: 16 gauge
Finish: G90 galvanizing

Installation:
• Use all specied fasteners. See Product Notes, page 18.
• Use a minimum of two anchors per mudsill. An anchor should
always be within 12" of the end of each mudsill section.
• Do not rely on these anchors to secure concrete sections together between cold joints.
• Insert into wet concrete (minimum strength of 2,500 psi). Place mudsill after concrete cures.
Secure anges to sill (and stud, if applicable), bending anges as needed to achieve a tight t.
Fasten as directed in chart.
• Do not use in red clay brick.
• For installation in severe corrosion environments, see Corrosion Information on pages 11-16.
