This GIB Handibrac fastener is a Revit detail component family featuring a steel bracket for structural wall connections. The GIB Handibrac is a specialised structural steel bracket designed for securing wall framing. This detail component features a vertical mounting plate with pre-defined fixing points and a heavy-duty threaded bolt extending from the horizontal base. The geometry is rendered in 2D for technical drawing applications, showing a clear side elevation and front profile. Its design is focused on providing a robust mechanical connection for load-bearing or bracing wall assemblies. The component is represented with precise line work suitable for standard architectural or structural construction documentation in Revit.
The download is a 563 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.
As a standard Revit detail component family, this item is intended for use in drafting views, sections, and callouts. Users can load the RFA file directly into their project library and insert it into 2D detailing sheets to represent structural connections accurately. It is best placed within wall section details where specific bracing or fixing requirements need to be communicated. The component maintains consistent line weights and scaling, ensuring clarity when plotted at common construction scales like 1:5 or 1:10.
This fastener is primarily utilised in residential and light industrial construction projects, specifically during the technical design and construction documentation stages. It is essential for architects and structural engineers documenting wall bracing systems, seismic restraints, or heavy-duty timber connections. Professionals searching for structural fixings, wall brackets, or bracing hardware will find this component useful for detailing complex junctions in Revit. It pairs effectively with standard timber wall framing families and structural steel details commonly found in residential building code compliance drawings.
