The ICFVL Ledger Connector System is engineered to solve the challenges of mounting wood or steel ledgers to insulated concrete form (ICF) walls. The ICFVL is designed to provide both vertical and lateral, in-plane performance. There are many benefits over traditional anchor bolting, including better on center spacing in most cases, faster installation and no protrusions.

The embedded legs of the ICFVL are embossed for additional stiffness and the hole allows for concrete to flow through and around the connector. The exposed flange on the face of the ICF provides a structural surface for mounting either a wood or steel ledger.

Fasteners for wood ledger (D3) are provided with the part and fasteners for steel ledger are not provided. Loads apply to ICF foam thicknesses of 2¾" or less. Tabulated loads may not be increased. Minimum concrete compressive strength (F'c) is 2500 psi.

The Designer may specify different spacing based on the load requirements. Spacings are based on perpendicular to grain capacity of bolt in wood ledger compared to tested value of ICFVL. For steel ledgers, the 68 mil ledger spacing is closer than the 54 mil ledger because the calculated load of a bolt is higher in a thicker piece of steel. Steel ledger values are based on steel. Fu = 60 ksi.

These tables address vertical load applications only.
