Overview
Timber-framed buildings need bracing to resist lateral forces and stay square. Speed Brace fixes diagonally across a wall frame to stop racking, twisting and excessive movement.
It works as part of the whole structural system. Lateral loads travel through the wall frame into the structural elements designed to take them.
Use in line with the building design, engineering specifications and applicable Australian Standards.
