GLB/HGLB/GLBT Beam Seats

The GLB Series provides a connection between beam and concrete or CMU pilaster.

Finish: Simpson Strong-Tie® gray paint

Installation:

Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes.
Bolt holes shall be a minimum of 1/32" to a maximum of 1/16" larger than the bolt diameter (per the 2005 NDS, section 11.1.2.).
Check the rebar spacing requirements on all installations.

Options:

Sawn timber and other sizes may be ordered by specifying special dimensions; use the letter designations shown on the illustrations.
Specify if two-bolt GLB model is desired; see illustration below.

Allowable bearing stress for masonry is based on an f'_m of 1500 psi using the IBC (ACI 530 2.1.9.3) Allowable Stress Design. Wood bearing is based on f'_c-perp of 560 psi.
When installed on masonry, use the lesser of the masonry or the wood allowable load values. When installed on concrete, a minimum f'_c = 2000 psi shall be used and use the wood values as the limiting allowable bearing load values.

Allowable horizontal loads are bolt values and include a 60% increase for wind or earthquake loading.
Beams must fully bear on base plate.
The GLBT5 has a WT4x9 structural tee; the GLBT6 has a WT4x12 structural tee.
Specify "W" dimension when ordering.
Uplift loads do not apply for this connector.
