Simpson Strong-Tie WB WB126C Wall Bracing, 16 ga Gauge, Steel, Galvanized
The WB is designed to resist racking during construction and provide long-term strength for structural walls. This wall bracing provides resistance to in-plane forces, creating an overall stronger structure. While not designed to replace structural panel shearwall load-carrying components, the WB is a cost-effective option that fulfills the same code bracing requirements as a 1 x 4 let-in brace with a faster install process.
