Stavebolt® Application Details - Picture Library Courtesy of Essa Homes and Contracting, Angus , Ontario, Canada
On this project, the designer-builder was required to produce a large open uncluttered space with recycled fir. He found the Stavebolt® device particularly useful because it resolved many of the engineering problems associated with the traditional mortise and tenon approach. The result, more open space, more efficient use of the timber with lower production costs.
