Product Overview

FWANZ Foundation Wall Angle

The FWANZ foundation anchor connects the foundation or basement wall to the floor system to resist out-of-plane forces imposed by soil pressure. The foundation wall angle fastens to the mudsill with nails, relying on other anchorage (by Designer) to anchor the sill plate to the foundation.
