Moment connection for knee walls and shear walls to the structure foundation.
ClarkDietrich moment clips are high-performance, cost effective solutions for knee wall-to-foundation connections and shear wall-to-foundation connections.
These multi-application clips feature a 1/4" thick A36 steel stiffening plate that provides superior design values for maximum performance. The moment clips are designed to resist horizontal, torsional and vertical (uplift) loads. These clips are prepunched with a series of attachment holes for steel framing connections and a 1/2" anchor bolt hole for foundation connections.
