Simpson Strong-Tie's DTT1Z Wins Product Innovation Award

The new Simpson Strong-Tie® DTT1Z deck tension tie has won a 2015 Product Innovation Award from Architectural Products magazine. The Product Innovation Awards seek to recognize manufacturers who are working toward delivering more sustainable products, as well as products that deliver better performance, life and affordability.

The DTT1Z is a less invasive alternative for attaching a deck to a home and meets 2015 IRC® code standards. Instead of accessing floor joists from inside the house, the tension tie is designed to be fastened from outside the house, making it a safe and time-saving solution.

The Product Innovation Awards are judged by a group of 35 independent industry professionals, including architects, interior designers, lighting designers and veteran writers in the industry.
