MATERIAL: W, WM 12 gauge top flange and stirrup,
WP 7 gauge top flange and 12 gauge 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. Hangers may be welded to steel headers with for
W, and for WP, by 1 fillet welds located at each
end of the top flange. 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.
For 4x2 trusses specify alternate nail pattern
which relocates the nails to the bottom of the joist.
OPTIONS: See Hanger Options, page 188.
CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.
1. 16d sinkers (9 ga x 3") may be used where 10d commons are called
out with no load reduction.
2. Uplift loads 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.
