BP/LBP Bearing Plate
| Information on this page has been updated since the printing of the C-2009 catalog. To view the specific changes made to this page in detail, visit the Catalog Changes and Corrections page. |
Bearing Plates give greater bearing surface than standard cut washers, and help distribute the load at these critical connections.
The BP1/2-3 and BP5/8-3 are 3"x3" bearing plates that meet the latest requirements of the IRC and IBC. These plate washers are available uncoated or with a hot dip galvanized (HDG) finish.
The BPS and LBPS are 3"x3" bearing plates that offer increased flexibility while meeting the latest requirements of the code. The slotted hole allows for adjustability to account for bolts that are not in the middle of the sill plate.
The BP5/8SKT uses SDS 1/4"x 1 1/2" screws to provide lateral resistance when 5/8" diameter sill holes are overdrilled (screws are provided). The shear capacity of the connection and the connection and sill/anchor bolt shall be determined by the Designer for each installation.
Material: See table.
Finish: LBP, LBPS & BP5/8S - Galvanized; BP7/8-2 - Zinc Plated; BPS, BP - None. BP's and BPS's may be ordered HDG; LBP and LBPS products may be ordered ZMAX®; Contact Simpson Strong-Tie. See Corrosion Information.
Installation: See General Notes.
Codes: See Code Reports. 2006 IRC R602.11.1, 2006 IBC 2305.3.11 (see footnote 2 below)
