Simpson Strong-Tie introduces three new connections for mass timber glulam columns—one for column-to-column and two for column-to-foundation installations. Each offers a concealed connection for aesthetics and fire protection.
The MCT (Mass Column Tie) connects two columns together, while allowing the vertical download to be transferred by column-to-column bearing.
The MCB and MCBS column bases provide standardized connections between glulam columns and concrete foundations or supports. MCB is the most economical option for use in conditions where a standoff between the column and the concrete is not required. MCBS provides the highest download capacity for a given column size and can be used where a standoff is required.
