Simpson Strong-Tie ® Wood Construction Connectors

Titen Turbo ™ Concrete and Masonry Screws

The new Titen Turbo concrete and masonry screw anchor features a patent-pending Torque Reduction Channel that displaces dust where it can’t obstruct the thread action, reducing the likelihood of binding in the hole. The Titen Turbo is available in 3/16 " and ¼" diameter with either a hex head (required for use with connectors) or, for other material installations, a 6-lobe-drive countersunk head. The pointed tip allows for easy attachment of wood to concrete or for wood-to-wood applications. For more information, visit go.strongtie.com/titenturbo . Material: Carbon steel Coating: Zinc plated with baked-on ceramic coating Codes: FL16230, IAPMO UES ER-712 (concrete), IAPMO UES ER-716 (masonry) For proper installation sequence, see installation requirements in IAPMO UES ER-712 (Concrete) and ER-716 (Masonry). Titen Turbo Screw Anchor Warning: Industry studies show that hardened fasteners can experience performance problems in wet or corrosive environments. Accordingly, use this product in dry and noncorrosive environments only, or provide moisture barrier. Steps must be taken to prevent inadvertent sustained loads above the listed allowable loads. Overtightening and bending can initiate cracks detrimental to the hardened screw’s performance. Use the Simpson Strong-Tie Titen Turbo installation tool kit (part TNTINSTALLKIT); it has a bit that is designed to reduce the potential for overtightening the screw.

3 260 1. Static allowable loads are calculated based on the strength design provision of ACI 318-14 Chapter 17 using a conversion factor of α = 1.4. The conversion factor α is based on the load combination 1.2D + 1.6L assuming 50% dead load and 50% live load: 1.2(0.5) + 1.6(0.5) = 1.4. 2. Wind allowable loads are calculated based on the strength design provision of ACI 318-14 Chapter 17 using a conversion factor of α = 1⁄ 0.6 = 1.67. The conversion factor α is based on the load combination assuming 100% wind load. 705 310 590
