Simpson META40 36" Embedded Truss Anchor

The META embedded truss anchor series provides an engineered method to properly attach roof trusses to concrete and masonry walls. The products are designed with staggered nail patterns for greater uplift resistance. Information regarding the use of two anchors on single- and multi-ply trusses is included.

• Use all specified fasteners (included).
• The META, HETA and HHETA are embedded 4″ into a 6″ min. concrete beam or 8″ nominal grouted block wall; HETAL is embedded 5 1/16″; DETAL is embedded 4 1/2″.
• For mislocated truss anchors which are greater than 1/8″ but less than 1 1/2″ from the face of the truss, a shim must be provided. Shim design by Truss Engineer. When gap is greater than 1 1/2″, install new anchors.
• In double embedded anchor installations, do not install fasteners where the straps overlap when wrapped over the truss heel.

NOTE: The correct fasteners installed in the correct position must be used to achieve published load values
