4. Strong Hold Due to their design and material composition, these screws provide a robust and durable fastening solution. They resist loosening over time, even in environments subject to vibration or movement.

The addition of washers to hex head self-tapping screws is another feature that enhances their performance. Washers are flat discs, usually made of metal or plastic, placed under the head of the screw. They serve several important purposes

While bracing steel beams play a fundamental role in structural integrity, they also come with challenges that engineers must address. The design and implementation of bracing systems require careful consideration of the building's purpose, location, and anticipated loads. Furthermore, bracing must be adequately integrated with the overall structural framework to prevent the introduction of weaknesses or stress concentrations.
