Product Description

The Simpson Strong-Tie® RCWB is designed to resist racking during construction and provide long-term strength for structural walls. The RCWB features a rolled edge for extra strength, safety and resistance to in-plane forces, creating an overall stronger structure. While not designed to replace structural panel shearwall load-carrying components, the RCWB is a cost-effective option that fulfills the same code-bracing requirements as a 1x4 let-in brace with a faster install process.

Tilt the wall up and plumb before nailing off the top plate, bottom plate and studs according to the nailing schedule.
