Nailing to concrete?
Have a small storage shed on a slab and need to replace rotted-out sill
plate. The original one was obviously nailed down but my question is how do you drive a nail through a 2x4 into concrete? I have access to a Bostitch framing nailer, will that do the job? or other? which nails? TIA Bob |

The framing nailer won't work. You can use a powder-actuated driver (you
can rent these), but I would personally use screws. Tapcon screws are good. You drill the correct hole (they will sell you a carbide drill for the purpose), make sure it is deep enough, and drive the screw right into the concrete. The hole is not as large for Tapcons as for screws using an anchor. "The Mays" wrote in message ... Have a small storage shed on a slab and need to replace rotted-out sill plate.

I can't speak for the nailer, but some people here suggested Tapcon screws and I don't doubt that they are good (These screws are robust!). But in my case I wasn't succesful with them. So don't take for granted they will work. I initially tried standard concrete nails with an average hammer on 50 year-old concrete, but the concrete kept breaking no matter how hard I tried. Then I bought those expensive tapcon screws, but I must have hit some small stone or something because it wouldn't go all way through, even if I had drilled a hole before. I broke my bit trying to screw it. It's the first time that it's not the screw head that gets all eaten up when there is resistance. I ended up nailing the concrete nails in the holes I had drilled for the tapcon screws. The holes prevented the concrete from breaking. That did the job for me and it holds well. I don't know if it's a good practice but it was for a shed too, so I didn't care much. Max. |

A Paslode Model#F350S with #401548 nails will do the trick. Bostich makes a
dedicated nailer for concrete fastening, around $800.00. -- Dave Lavelle D.E.L. Drywall, Inc. Wilmington, DE "The Mays" wrote in message ...

Have a small storage shed on a slab and need to replace rotted-out sill
plate. Unless there is a problem with high winds or side loads of some sort, why not use construction adhesive and save all the aggravation? If your slab is typical of most shed slabs the thickness is on the slim side and whacking away with concrete nails isn't what you want to do to a delicate old piece of concrete. HTH Joe |

Nailing to concrete?
I use plastic anchors. It is easy to put, easy to screw a screw in it and
easy to unscrew if you need to remove the stud. I use 5/16" drill to drill and hole, nail the anchor and use regular #10 2 1/2" sheet metal screws. Works great with minimum effort.

Nailing to concrete?
When carpet was installed in our basement, they nailed all the tack
strips down by hand. I was a bit surprised. Don't know what kind of nails and hammer. It was a big hammer though. Larry Caldwell wrote in message nk.net... (The Mays) writes: The original one was obviously nailed down but my question is how do you drive a nail through a 2x4 into concrete? You buy special hardened concrete nails and use a heavy hammer. A 32 ounce framing hammer will do it. Seat the nails through the 2x4, then haul off and hit them as hard as you can. If you like tools, Remingon sells a powder actuated nailer for the purpose for about $25. It uses a blank .22 shell and a piston to shoot a nail into the concrete. |

If the nails held in the holes you drilled for tapcons, either...
1. you had *huge* nails I used nails my carpenter friend gave to me. He called them masonry nails or something like that. They are big and ribbed. Trying to nail them in the old concrete just resulted in sparks and lots of concrete breaking up. The drilled hole in the concrete was just a little smaller than the nails, so there was enough pressure to hold them once nailed in. 2. the holes were the wrong size for screws...might be why they broke. I bought a pack of screws that came with a masonry bit, so unless there was a packaging error it should be the right size. The screws started going in but about halfway through, they came to a dead stop even though the hole was deep enough. There seems to be some small rocks in my concrete, rocks that are hard as hell to drill through, I think the screw hit one of them. As I said I'm no pro so I normally go by trial and error until I find something that is good enough. Max. |

I know that since they changed the grading standards and what used to be choice is now called prime, getting a decent steak is "tough". I guess we are burning all the corn in our cars now.

The resulting drain bamage has caused him to stay on his computer 24/7 posting inane diatribes to Usenet. It was a real tragedy but at least he didn't lose his life. o_O [8~{} Uncle Nail Monster Just a chip off the old block. -- Tekkie |

Actually, that was a "help mate", although some websites actually use the term "help meet". You're humor challenged, that one when "whoosh." IT WAS A JOKE. Also you're an idiot. The bible does NOT say a help mate. Help does not modify mate. The bible says a help, meet. Meet is a term that means appropriate or suitable. It modifies help. Yahweh provided a help suitable (meet) for Adam. Maybe not quite suitable enough. Just goes to show what happens when you use a translation from 1611. And are an idiot. |
