The present invention is a channel-shaped connector for connecting a first building structural member to a second building structural member in conjunction with fasteners and an anchor member to resist forces on buildings imposed by earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes and other similar cataclysmic forces. A connector constructed in accordance with the present invention consists of a back member formed to interface with the fasteners for attaching the back member to the first building structural member, a first side member connected to the back member, a second side member connected to the back member, and first and second anchor receiving members. Both the first and second anchor receiving members extend laterally between the first and second side members, and both the first and second anchor receiving members are connected to the first and second side members. The first and second anchor receiving members are disposed so that a space exists between the first and second anchor receiving members for receiving the anchor member therethrough for attaching the connector to the second building structural member.

L'invention porte sur un connecteur profilé destiné à raccorder un premier élément structurel de construction à un deuxième élément structurel de construction conjointement avec des fixations et un élément d'ancrage pour résister aux forces qui s'exercent sur les immeubles lors de séismes, ouragans, tornades et autres cataclysmes du même genre. Un connecteur construit selon la présente invention consiste en un élément dorsal conçu pour servir d'interface avec les fixations pour assujettir l'élément dorsal au premier élément structurel de construction, un premier élément latréral raccordé à l'élément dorsal, un deuxième élément latréral raccordé à l'élément dorsal, ainsi qu'un premier et un deuxième élément de réception d'ancrage. Le premier et le deuxième élément de réception d'ancrage s'étendent latéralement entre le premier et le deuxième élément latéral, et le premier et le deuxième élément de réception d'ancrage sont raccordés au premier et au deuxième élément latéral. Le premier et le deuxième élément de réception d'ancrage sont disposés de façon à laisser un espace entre eux pour recevoir l'élément d'ancrage servant à assujettir le connecteur au deuxième élément structurel de construction.
