UNDERSTANDING THE ISSUES
.:A Metal connectors, anchors, and fasteners will corrode and lose load carrying
'U capacity when installed in corrosive environments or exposed to corrosive
. materials. There are many environments and materials which may cause
corrosion including:
. Ocean Salt Air
. Fire-Retardants
. Fumes
. Fertilizers
. Preservative-Treated Wood
. Dissimilar Metals
The many variables present in a single building environment make it
impossible to accurately predict if, or when, significant corrosion will begin
or reach a critical level. This relative uncertainty makes it crucial that the
specifiers be knowledgeable of the potential risks and select a product coating
or metal that is suitable for the intended use.
Changes in the preservative-treated wood industry have created additional
concerns. Effective December 31,2003, the preservative-treated wood indus-
try VOluntarily transitioned from Chromated Copper Arsenate (CCA-C) used
In residential applications 10 alternative treatments. Testing has shown that
certain alternative replacement treatments are generally more corrosive
than CCA-C.
The corrosion performance of a hot-dip galvanized product is a function
of the amount of zinc on its surface. Historically the connector industry has
used products manufactured with a G60 coating which means 0.60 ozlft2 01
zinc. In recent years, Simpson made the decision to increase the minimum
standard amount of zinc protection to a G90 coating, 0.90 ozlll'. This
represents a 50 percent increase In protection versus the industry standard
and is the minimum level of galvanizing provided on all Simpson galvanized
products. Simpson also offers many products with ZMAX- which is a G185
coating, 1.85 ozlft'.
Testing has shown that type 304 and 316 stainless steel products corrode
substantially less than other alternatives when used with the alternative wood
treatments. Simpson has a number of stainless sleel products available and
recommends the use 01 stainless steel products and fasteners when possible.
. J The chart'below is based on testing performed by Simpson Strong-Tie.
If the pressure treated wood you are using does nol appear by name, then
we recommend you use the "Other Pressure-Treated Woods" column and
use only Stainless Steel connectors and lasteners. *'
SIMPSON RECOMMENDATIONS
. Due 10 Ihe uncertainlies, which are out of the specifier's conlrol, in regard
to the chemicals used in pressure treated wood, Simpson recommends
the use of stainless steel fasteners, anchors and connectors with treated
wood when possible. At a minimum, customers should use ZMAX. (G185
HOG per ASTM A653), Batch/Post Hot-Dip Galvanized (per ASTM A 123 for
connectors and ASTM A 153 for fasteners), or mechanically galvanized
fasteners (per ASTM 8695, Class 55 or greater), product with the newer
alternative treated woods. Due to the many variables involved, many 01
which are controlled by the chemical supplier and the wood treater,
Simpson cannot make an unqualified recommendation of any galvanized or
other coating for use with treated wood. Additionally, because 01 the many
variables involved, Simpson cannol provide estimates on service life of
connectors, anchors or fasteners. We suggest that all users and specifiers
obtain recommendations for Batch/Post HOG, G185 HOG, mechanically
galvanized, or other coatings from their treated wood supplier (Some
treated wood chemical suppliers have clarified their hot-dip galvanized
recommendation and do include G185 HOG in their recommendation.)
Contact Simpson for availability of ZMAX., Batch / Post Hot-Dip
Galvanized, and Stainless Steel products.
. Uncoated and painted products should not be used with treated woods.
. When using Stainless Steel or hot-dip galvanized connectors, the
connectors and fasteners should be made of the same malerial.

To Whom It May Concern::
A letter was sent to Ms. Denise Warren concerning a structure at 703 West Tyler Street.
This property was sited, as being in need of repair or plans to have the structure
demolished. A permit was secured from the city of La Porte and a deposit was paid, in
case I decided to demolish the structure. As of today, the structure has been almost all

Attn; Debbie Wilmore
Re: Demolition hearing on TR 4350, W 1h OF E V2 La Porte Outlots 2.5 Acres,
commonly known as .10910 N L ST, La Porte, Texas 77571
Dear Ms. Wilmore:
Our first sale on the above referenced properly fell through because of delays with
the Court. We h~ve secured a new contract on the property and It Is set for closing on
September 24, 2004. The reason for the delay In this matter is that we have two mentally
retarded beneficiaries and all actions must have prior court approval.
All necessary steps have been taken, through the Court, to secure the sale currently
scheduled for closing on September 24, 2004. If It would meet with the council's
approval, the property can be boarded up and secured until the closing and the buyer has
time to make repairs.
,.
We would like to request a 90 day extension In order for the sale to be finalized and
the new buyer to make the necessary.repairs.. .... : .
Should you have any questions or need any additional information, please do not hesitate
to contact my office. .
Sincerely,
.JJtlL-

Owner, Ms. Denise Warren, obtained a demolition permit
on 08-19-04. Demolition has already began and owner
plans to complete soon.
See Attached Fax from the Mortgage Company
Mr. John Gonzalez of Household Mortgage Services
contacted us today and advised that they do not have
control over house yet. Foreclosure sale is scheduled for
Sept. 7th. Ifno one outbids them, they will purchase house
and plan to repair house to code so they can sell property.
They are asking for additional time.
New owner, Mr. Carl Gold, called staff today. He received
his letter from the title company saying the previous owner
had completed signing the paperwork for the sale.
Mr. Gold has no objection to the condemnation and will not
be at tonight's meeting. He has plans to have the mobile
home removed or demolish the structure himself.
See Letter & Sale Contract Attached
Owner, Mr. David Glatter, is deceased. Ms. Elizabeth
Hilbun is representing the family at this time. Ms. Hilbun
has a "contract of sale" scheduled for closing on 09-24-04.
She plans to address Council tonight and ask for additional
time. She has indicated the buyers are aware of city action.
