Used to connect wooden components of solid wood (coniferous wood) or of veneer, board or composite laminated wood.
Wind brace bands can be used in many different ways for building constructions. They are mainly used for diagonal bracing (wind bands) of roof trusses, ceilings and walls.
In damp rooms and outdoors, non-corrosive materials must be used (DIN 18360, Section 3.1.4.1).
Usually, the structural design documents define how many braces are required at roof level. If the documents do not contain any information, the wind brace band must be installed crosswise.
It should be noted that the brace band lying on the rafters is connected to the cross beams (purlins and ridge beam) both at the top and bottom, in order to be able to optimally transfer the absorbed forces.
In addition, the brace band must always be installed tightly. For this purpose, the wind brace band is attached to the ridge beam, then laid down to the sill plate and finally tensioned.
When using wind brace bands, the requirements of the wooden construction standard regarding the edge and end clearances must be observed.
