Product Description
FWA foundation anchors connect the foundation or basement walls to the floor system to resist out-of-plane forces imposed by soil pressure. The FWANZ fastens to the mudsill with nails, relying on other anchorage (by Designer) to anchor the sill plate to the foundation. Spacing of the FWA anchors is independent of the joist spacing, allowing for a multitude of options based on soil pressures.
