Simpson Strong-Tie CCQM4.62-SDSHDG STRAIGHT CAP HDG

Simpson Strong-Tie CCQM4.62-SDSHDG

•HEAVY‑DUTY COLUMN CONNECTION: This embedded column cap, for 4-5/8 in. beam, is engineered to provide a strong beam‑to‑column connection where heavy timbers or beams rest on concrete or grout‑filled masonry unit (CMU) piers in raised foundations and structural applications.
• HIGH UPLIFT & LATERAL RESISTANCE: The robust heavy‑gauge steel seat and included Strong‑Drive SDS heavy‑duty connector screws are configured to deliver enhanced uplift and lateral resistance, helping support load demands and resist wind and seismic forces at critical load points.
• CORROSION‑RESISTANT GALVANIZED STEEL: Constructed from heavy‑gauge steel with a hot‑dip galvanized finish, this connector offers durable corrosion resistance for exterior and treated wood applications while maintaining long‑lasting reliability in demanding outdoor structural environments.
• EXTRA BEARING SUPPORT ENGINEERING: Extended bearing surface on the beam seat distributes load more effectively across the column cap interface, reducing stress concentration and improving the structural performance of the connection between timber beams and CMU/concrete piers.
• SIMPSON STRONG-TIE RELIABILITY: At Simpson Strong-Tie, our mission is to provide solutions that help people design and build safer, stronger structures. As a pioneer in the building industry, we have an unmatched passion for problem solving through skillful engineering and thoughtful innovation.

The CCQM embedded column cap is designed for use in raised pier foundations and applications where heavy beams rest on concrete or concrete block columns. The heavy-gauge beam seat and unique Simpson Strong-Tie® SSTB® anchor bolts provide the high uplift and lateral resistance needed to help resist high-wind events. The CCQM is intended for use along a floor support beam and non-corner locations.
