I don’t communicate with Internachi but I’ll see if I can rattle the cage a little.
No promises.

Roy and Marcel.
I just emailed April April Ware april@internachi.org
Mention the books.
Email her and send her your address.**
UPDATE: April contacted me, send her your addresses.**
A big “THANK YOU” to Paul for all his hard work benefiting the members here!
Good questions Paul.
What is a pinned 16 gauge metal plate?
Congrats Roy.
It is a gusset plate.
I figured that much Roy, but what kind…a standard 20 gauge punched truss plate with teeth? To me, that would not be a “pinned” gusset plate. Pinned infers bolted or through-riveted heavy gauge plates. Just curious, because I think that threw a few people off.
Well, through me off too Brad.
I think that is the objective to through people off.
Paul does a lot of research on these questions and does one hell of a job putting them out and throw even old timers like us off the rail at times. :mrgreen:
Keep up the good work Paul, well done.
It does get us to research this stuff, which is the point I presume.
Happy Birthday Marcel
Its just a regular gusset plate with the punched pointed ends. Referred to as pinned plates in a couple of my sources as I guess they have no other fasteners and not nailed or bolted, just pinned.
Cannot be pounded in, just pressed into place.
Thanks to all for asking and yes I do a lot of fact-checking and with Google being so quick I try to stay within acceptable limits without be obviously misleading.
Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t.
Excellent effort, Paul. Congrats!!
