Description
The CCC is designed to provide strong column-to-beam connections when there are multiple wood beams on top of a column. When properly installed, this cross column cap helps to distribute the load from the intersecting beams and provides support for the connection. The CCC is special-ordered per specific details from the designer to accommodate the many combinations of beam and post sizes.
