b.A collar tie is placed in the upper third to resist ridge separation/uplift, while a rafter tie near the plate resists outward wall thrust

Giải thích
A collar tie sits in the upper third of the roof and mainly keeps the rafters from separating at the ridge under wind uplift, while a rafter tie sits low, near the wall plates, and resists the outward horizontal thrust that would push the walls apart. They are not identical, do not carry floor load, and need not be steel.
