ABSTRACT:
A rod tie system for enhancing the interconnection between the walls and roof framing systems of tilt-up buildings and the like including a first type of connection bracket, a second type connection bracket, a clevis bracket, a turnbuckle bracket, a transfer lug, and several lengths of threaded rod. The first connection bracket and the clevis bracket can be combined to form a single plane articulating bracket, and the second type of connection bracket and the clevis bracket can be combined to form a dual plane articulating bracket. The several lengths of threaded rod are combined with the above brackets, as needed, to form a particular rod tie system. Among the principal advantages of the present invention are that the components thereof can easily be made from readily available stock material using only stamping or shearing devices, drills and welding equipment.
