hairpin detail for metal building
(OP)
Does anyone have a hairpin detail to resist the lateral thrust from a metal building frame that gets installed correctly?
We are designing for New York state, so the piers and foundation walls are poured seperately from the slab on grade. We've done a few different iterations, including one we developed with a contractor's suggestions, but they never seem to get installed correctly.
Thanks for your thoughts.

What do you use for cross building tie rods?

What you describe is the way it is done, as far as I know. I suppose the hairpins do get in the way a little bit, but I don't see that as a big problem.
