About this detail

An 1/8-inch diameter 7x19 galvanized aircraft cable secures to a wood framing member using an SLH-34 anchor bracket by M.W. Sausse & Co., Inc. The bracket fastens to the wood member with a 3/8-inch diameter lag bolt requiring a minimum 3-inch penetration, 1-1/2-inch edge distance, and 2-5/8-inch end distance into Douglas fir wood with additional blocking as required. Slotted washers (SLW) are required at both top and bottom connections of the bracket. The cable loops through the bracket with two U-clamps at each end, installed hand taut without slack, though a swage fitting may be substituted for U-clamps at one or both ends.
