Simpson Strong-Tie develops and produces connection products for load-bearing timber constructions. The company offers a wide range of fasteners such as beam shoes and angle connectors that ensure the stability and safety of structures. With production and sales locations in several European countries, Simpson Strong-Tie guarantees high quality standards and customer proximity. Research and development play a central role in providing solutions for the requirements of modern construction projects.
Simpson Strong-Tie presents a ground-breaking solution for the timber construction industry with the innovative CCS multifunctional connector. The round connector enables a secure and flexible connection with up to eight screws and a metric thread in the middle. This design impresses with its exceptional stability and versatility. Whether new buildings, renovations of old buildings or large structures such as salt storage halls - the CCS connector sets new standards in connection technology and demonstrates Simpson Strong-Tie's leading innovative strength.
The CCS connector from Simpson Strong-Tie offers maximum flexibility. Thanks to its unique design, two-thirds of the connector is screwed into the wood, while ten millimeters protrude and grip into the opposite wood. This design creates a dowel effect that effectively transfers both tensile and shear forces. Thanks to these properties, the connector is suitable for a wide range of applications: from the assembly of timber constructions on steel to self-supporting domed structures. The CCS connector is particularly impressive in the renovation of old buildings, as it can even be installed in confined spaces or behind walls where conventional screws or bolts reach their limits.
With the CCS connector, Simpson Strong-Tie enables individual adaptation to different cross-sections and loads. Depending on requirements, fewer than eight screws can be used, making the connector suitable for narrower timber cross-sections. The catalog offers numerous screw patterns that enable a tailor-made application for every construction. This flexibility makes the CCS connector an indispensable tool for modern timber construction projects.
The stability of the CCS connector is particularly evident in large-scale projects, such as self-supporting domes. As soon as three points are connected, the construction stabilizes itself without additional supports. This saves time and material and significantly increases efficiency on the construction site. With the CCS connector, Simpson Strong-Tie offers an innovative solution that not only meets but exceeds the requirements of modern timber construction projects. Simpson Strong-Tie is setting new standards in timber connection technology with the CCS multifunctional connector. The combination of flexibility, stability and versatility makes the connector a pioneering solution for architects, engineers and construction companies.
