Construction + Civil Engineering

Simpson Strong-Tie, a leader in engineered structural connectors and building solutions, has recently released the Simpson Strong-Tie^® 2023 Fastening Systems catalogue, a comprehensive guide to the company’s most recent innovations and product line expansions for wood, mass timber, steel, concrete and masonry fastening applications.

Available in print and online, the new catalogue is designed to assist engineers, architects, designers, pro suppliers, and contractors in selecting the most suitable fastening systems and solutions for improved performance, efficiency, and productivity. As with the 2019 edition, the catalogue has been separated into two complementary parts — the main catalogue and a technical guide — to make locating project and application-specific information even easier. 

Fastening Systems catalogue enhancements for 2023 include an expanded table of contents along with separate product indexes alphabetised both by name and by model number; full-spread chapter separators and subindexes for easier navigation; color-coded product categories; and a newly consolidated hand-drive nail section. The technical guide also includes full-spread chapter separators and user-friendly subindexes, as well as detailed installation illustrations, spacing diagrams, and load tables for solutions that are now organised by application rather than by product.

“Simpson Strong-Tie continues to be an industry leader in designing and testing innovative products that help our customers build safe, strong structures while boosting efficiency and productivity,” says Scott Park, director of product development – fastening systems at Simpson Strong-Tie. “The 2023 Fastening Systems catalogue is designed to be a one-stop resource guide for our contractors, suppliers, engineers, and specifier customers seeking the information on our latest product innovations as well as updated changes related to loads, codes, or new testing.”
