Simpson Strong-Tie has introduced the Simpson Strong-Tie HSKP heavy-seated knife plate, a high-capacity, welded concealed beam hanger for mass timber structures that is designed to meet heavy loads while providing a hidden-connector, wood-only design aesthetic.
Engineered specifically to meet some of the heaviest mass timber beam loads, the HSKP is a code-listed, easy-to-install connector that can accommodate larger-mass timber beams while still providing a strong, secure wood-to-wood or wood-to-steel connection.
