What is a "tie rod"?

A tie rod is a structural element used in construction to provide tension and support to a framework. It is typically a long, slender metal rod that connects two parts of a structure, helping to prevent them from moving apart under stress. Tie rods are commonly used in various applications, such as in roofs, bridges, and other frameworks, where they help stabilize and distribute loads. By transferring forces and maintaining the alignment of structural components, tie rods play a crucial role in ensuring the overall safety and integrity of the structure. They can be designed in different lengths and materials to meet specific engineering requirements.
