hello
I rebuilt an old corn barn this last summer. it was three bend so not very big. In the center bent I put a collar tie. I opened up the barn the other day and the collar tie was on the floor.
? is. What is out there to replace the collar tie with something in compression instead of in tension . but can only go rafter to rafter.
iamm thinking an X
have a good day
