Bloomington, Ill.-"They make the most rigid connections I've ever seen" is the way Harold Davidson, carpenter foreman, describes the use of Trip-L-Grip framing anchors for tieing down trussed rafters, on two new dormitories for Illinois Wesleyan University.

In this area of high winds, inadequate toe-nailing of rafters to plates has been eliminated in favor of a small metal framing anchor which provides necessary resistance to uplift.

Trussed rafters, built with Teco split ring connectors, provide clear span roofs and ceilings. These trusses were quickly built on a jig table under the supervision of I{oy Brian, construction foreman, who praised the ease and speed of erection with which they went up.

John Felmly Company, Bloomington, Illinois, was the contractor for the dormitories. Plans were prepared by Poundstone, Ayers & Godrvin, Architects, Atlanta, Georgia. Schaeffer, Ilooton .& Wilson u/ere associate architects and Ted Jensen is structural engineer for the contractor.

Trip-L-Grip framing anchors are coming into wide use for secondary connections in light wood frame construction, as indicated by their adoption by the designers of the much publicized Industry Engineered Home. They are incorporated as ties between wall and roof, for strengthening corner posts, to reduce cracking around openings and as joist hangers.

Teco trussed rafters have $een adopted for the construction of more than 10,000 dwelling units from small homes to huge garden apartment projects, according to the Timber Engineering Company, developers of the unique truss design.

Complete information about these two new improvements in the home and light commercial building field may be secured from the Timber Engineering Company, Washington, D. C.
