Description
02150.00Scope - This Section includes the requirements for connectors, bolts, nuts, washers, nails,
and miscellaneous hardware for joining lumber and timber.
Materials
02150.10Lumber and Timber Connectors :
lightweight connectors, according to AASHTO M 111 ( ASTM A123).
For all connectors and hardware that contact lumber or timber treated with Alkaline Copper Quaternary (ACQ) or Copper Azole (CA), except those used with fe nce posts, sign posts, guardrail post, or guardrail blocks, furnish connectors according to one of the following:
Fabricate connectors and all associated hardware, including fasteners, with Type 304 or Type 316 stainless steel according to ASTM A480. Coat all connectors and associated hardware, including fasteners, according to ASTM F2833, Grade 1 or ASTM F1136, Grade 3, or approved equal.
Contact between stainless steel and non stainless steel is not allowed.
from steel conforming to ASTM A830 , Grade Number 1010 (AISI C1010, SAE 1010). Each ring shall form a closed true circle with the principal axis of the Cross Section of the ring metal parallel to the geometric axis of the ring. Bevel the metal section from the central portion toward the edges to a thickness less than the mid -section. Cut through the ring in one place in its circumference to form a tongue and slot. Cut connector grooves in timber concentric with the bolt hole and conforming to the cross -sectional shape of the rings, to provide a snug fit. The inside diameter of the groove shall be larger than nominal ring diameter so that the ring can expand slightly during installation.
from steel conforming to ASTM A830, Grade Number 1010 (AISI C1010, SAE 1010). Each plate shall be a true circle with a flange around the edge, extending from one face of the plate only and at right angles to the face. The plate portion shall have a central bolt hole and two small perforations on opposite sides of the hole and midway between the center and circumference.
according to ASTM A47, Grade No. 32510, for malleable iron castings. Each casting shall consist of a perforated round plate with a flange around the edge projecting from one face of the plate only and at right angles to the face. The plate portion shall have a central bolt hole reamed to size with an integral hub concentric with the bolt hole and extending from the same face as the flange. Galvanize malleable iron type connectors ac cording to AASHTO M 232 (ASTM A153).
according to ASTM A307 or ASTM A36. Washers may be cast ogee or malleable castings, or cut from steel plate. 02150.20 1076 Galvanize bolts, nuts, washers, lag screws, and wood screws, according to ASTM F2329. Provide bolts, nuts, washers, lag scre ws, and wood screws in standard type and make, unless otherwise shown.
sheet steel connectors with a maximum thickness of 1/4 inch, used to connect wood members to wood, concrete or masonry. Provide lightweight metal connectors as shown with the required minimum capacities as specified in 00570.15 of the Special Provisions. Provide copies of the test reports from the International Code Council (ICC-ES) showing that the supplied connectors meet the minimum capacities listed in the Special Provisions. All lightweight metal connectors shall be Type 304 or Type 316 stainless steel according to ASTM A480 , or galvanized according to ASTM A23 or ASTM A653 , coating designation G185.
Galvanize rough hardware, drift pins, dowels, clamps, anchors, joist hangers, and nails according to AASHTO M 232 (ASTM A153).
Provide rough hardware, drift pins, dowels, clamps, anchors, joist hangers, and nails in standard type and make, unless otherwise shown.
02150.20Acceptance - Lumber and timber connectors w ill be accepted according to 00165.35 and
this Section.
