Item Description
Simpson Strong-Tie MDSS96 - 5-3/4" x 95-1/2" Galvanized Diaphragm Spline Strap
The MDSS96 surface spline is 95-1/2 in. long, is attached with Strong-Drive® SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws and is an ideal solution for CLT diaphragms. For CLT manufacturers, it reduces costs by eliminating or reducing time for milling at panel edges. And since our tabulated values are based on tests, not just calculations, Designers can value-engineer a solution using fewer screws than calculated solutions would allow.
Features
- Pre-punched screw holes speed fastener installation
- Tested loads allow for value-engineered solutions using fewer screws than calculated solutions would allow
- Reduces or eliminates the need for edge-milling of CLT panels
- Width: 5-3/4 in.
- Length: 95-1/2 in.
- Made from 14-gauge steel
- Galvanized (G90) for extra corrosion resistance
Installs with

Install with 1/4 in. x 3-1/2 in. Simpson Strong-Tie® Strong-Drive® SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws for 3-ply CLT layup or 1/4 in. x 6 in. SDS screws for 5- and 7-ply CLT layup
