Wood Installation
Drill a hole in the concrete through the sill plate. Use QuickTie™ recommendations for depth and diameter required depending on wire/swage size.
Clean the hole using compressed air, then with a metal brush, and again with compressed air. Follow OSHA standards and practices.
Drill a hole through the top plate aligned with the hole in the sill plate.
Feed the QuickTie™ cable through the top plate.
Inject the epoxy into the concrete hole, filling about half of the hole.
Making sure it is the correct end, insert the QuickTie cable into the hole with epoxy, which should then slightly overspill from the hole. Let the epoxy cure for the recommended time.
Once the epoxy has set, tension the cable to the proper elongation.
The label on the wire rope indicates how many inches of the threaded stud should be exposed above the nut after tensioning.
