Restraint Straps
Restraint straps are usually manufactured from steel or other durable materials and their primary purpose is to help with structural stability and resist lateral forces. They can be used to secure many parts of a building including walls, floors, and roofs. They help the building to resist elements that could cause it to fail including wind and seismic activity.
Correct installation is essential for these straps to work effectively. Always follow manufacturers instructions and ensure they are securely fastened to structural elements in the building. They are usually fitted as part of the original building process, but in some cases, they can be retrofitted if necessary.
A structural engineer will be able to advise on the type and size of straps required on your new build, extension, or project.
