FAQ What is the difference between a tie plate and a mending plate? Tie plates are designed to strengthen wood joints subjected to tension, while mending plates reinforce damaged or weakened joints subjected to compression. Do you put mending plates on both sides? While it’s not always necessary, using mending plates on both sides of a joint can provide additional strength and stability, especially for larger or heavier projects. Can these be used with ACQ and CA pressure treated lumber? Yes, Sandbaggy mending plates are specifically designed to be compatible with ACQ and CA pressure-treated lumber. That’s because they are hot-dipped galvanized, a process that provides a thick, protective zinc coating that effectively resists corrosion caused by the chemicals in treated wood.

FAQ What is a catch basin for drainage? A drainage catch basin is a drainage system component designed to collect and direct runoff water away from areas prone to flooding. It captures water through a grate and channels it into connected pipes, preventing water buildup and property damage. How are catch basins used? Catch basins are used to manage excess water in low areas like yards, under downspouts, or along walkways. They collect water through a grate and direct it into underground pipes, which carry the water to a safe discharge point, such as a storm drain or dry well. How does the debris basket help with maintenance? The debris basket in a catch basin captures leaves, sediment, and other debris, preventing them from clogging the drainage pipes. This feature reduces maintenance needs and ensures that the drainage system remains clear and efficient. The basket can be easily removed for cleaning.
