Rebuilding Better After Hurricane Sandy
Simpson Strong-Tie partnered with Seaside Heights, New Jersey on rebuilding their iconic boardwalk, an integral part of the town's economy, after its destruction following Superstorm Sandy. Our Columbus, OH branch worked closely with the town's borough officials, the project's engineering firm and the contractor to rebuild the boardwalk to better address future storms. For the full story, see the July issue of our Structural Report newsletter.
Simpson Strong-Tie is continually developing resources to help customers build stronger and safer structures. Our engineering team visits and evaluates the effect of natural disasters on homes and other buildings, and has developed a flier with tips to help build better to resist flooding and high winds. The new Flood-Resistant Construction Guide: Installing Simpson Strong-Tie Connectors in Flood-Prone Regions focuses on connections between the foundation and the first floor studs and illustrates connections for raised foundations, solid foundations, decks, porches and boardwalks.
