New construction doesn’t have to repeat the mistakes of the past. NSC’s DTC Pro Double-Tee Connection replaces conventional slug bars and erection plates with a patented profile that dramatically improves weld geometry and section properties.

Out-of-plane loading (the primary cause of flange cracking) sees 100% higher elastic and plastic section modulus than standard connections. Stainless steel Type 304 (70 ksi tensile) delivers built-in corrosion resistance. The unique shape increases both strength and fatigue life while maintaining erection speed.

Whether you’re designing a new multi-level garage or retrofitting an existing structure, DTC Pro integrates seamlessly:

      
• Matches any joint width in ⅛″ increments

      

• Marked weld lengths for quick field installation

      

• Compatible with modern precast embedments

      

• Meets AWS D1.1/1.6 without over-welding risks

    

Specifiers love the included Guide Specification (downloadable from nscclips.com) that makes incorporation into project documents effortless. Owners benefit from lower lifecycle costs and zero future closure nightmares.

Why DTC Pro is the smart choice in 2026 and beyond

      
• Seismic compatibility

      

• Full out-of-plane tension/compression capacity

      

• 10+ year proven track record (same family as DTFC)
