TOP OF WALL INSTALLATION
TOP OF WALL INSTALLATION
The table indicates the
maximum allowable
loads for W, WP and
HW hangers used
on wood nailers.
Nailers are wood
members attached to
the top of a steel
I-beam, concrete or
masonry wall. This
table also applies to
sloped-seat hangers.

W/WI
1. 16d sinkers (9 ga x 3²) may be used where 10d commons are called
out with no load reduction.
2. Uplift loads are based on Doug Fir, and have been increased 33% and
60% for wind or earthquake loading; no further increase allowed.
Divide by 1.33 and 1.60 for normal loading like cantilever construction.
3. SCL, structural composite lumber, is laminated veneer lumber,
Parallam PSL and TimberStrand LSL.
4.Applies to LVL headers made primarily from Douglas Fir or Southern
Pine. For LVL made primarily from Spruce Pine Fir or similar less dense veneers,
use the values found in the SPF column.
5.I-joist header with SPF flanges will support 2030 lbs.
6. WP/WPI quantity of nail holes in top flange varies.
7. NAILS: 16d and 16d DPLX 0.162" dia. x 3 long, 10d 0.148" dia. x 3" long,
10dx1 0.148" dia. x 1 long. See page 16-17 for other nail sizes and information.
8. Mid-wall installation requires minimum of one grouted course above and below the hanger.
Parallam and TimberStrand are registered trademarks of Trus Joist, a Weyerhaeuser company.
Some model
configurations may
differ from those
shown. Contact
factory for details.
W SERIES WITH VARIOUS HEADER APPLICATIONS
WM/WMI
(WMU similar)
WPU
Typical WM Installation
with Alternate Nailing
Pattern (ANP)
The W, WP, WPU, HWU and HW series purlin hangers offer the greatest
design flexibility and versatility. WMs are designed for use on standard 8" grouted
masonry block wall construction.
MATERIAL: See tables on pages 104 to 113; W, WI 12 ga. top flange and stirrup;
WM, WMI, WMU 12 ga. top flange and stirrup; WPU, WP 7 ga. top flange,
12 ga. stirrup; HW, HWI 3 ga. top flange, 11 ga. stirrup;
HWU 3 ga. top flange, 10 ga, stirrup.
FINISH: Simpson gray paint; hot-dipped galvanized available: specify HDG.
ALLOWABLE LOADS: For hanger heights exceeding the joist height, the
allowable load is 0.50 of the table load.
INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. WM two 16d duplex nails must
be installed into the top flange and embedded into the grouted wall. Verify
that the header can take the required fasteners specified in the table.
Hangers may be welded to steel headers with for W, WI, for WP, WPU
WPI, and for HW, HWI, HWU by 1 fillet welds located at each end of the
top flange, see page 14 for weld information. Weld-on applications produce
maximum allowable load listed. Uplift loads do not apply to this application.
Hangers can support multi-ply carried members; the individual members must
be secured together to work as a single unit before installation into the hanger.
Hangers can support joists sloped up to :12 using table loads.
For joists sloping between :12 and :12 use 85% of the table loads.
Embed WM into block with a minimum of one course above and one course
below the top flange with one #5 vertical rebar minimum 24" long in each cell.
Minimum grout strength is 2000 psi.
Web stiffeners are required for standard joist nailing configuration with these hangers.
OPTIONS: Specify alternate nailing pattern when web stiffeners are not being used
(up to 16" in depth). Add X ANP after model number for nailing into the flange,
available for 90 applications only. Uplift loads do not apply to this application.
See Hanger Options, page 188 for hanger modifications and associated
load reductions.
CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.
