191 Hanger Options HANGER OPTIONS See Hanger Options General Notes. Not all Slope and Skew Combinations are available. SLOPED AND/OR SKEWED For low-cost, code-reported 45 skews, see SUR/SUL and HSUR/HSUL. See also LSU/LSSU connectors. U/HU may be skewed to a maximum of 67 and sloped to a maximum of 45 . Hangers skewed 51-67 require a square cut. For all options, uplift loads are 0.75 of table loads. For combined slopes and skews, the maximum allowable download is 0.80 of the table load. For slope only or skew only, the allowable download is 100% of the table load. STRAIGHT OR CONCEALED FLANGE HU is available with the A flanges straight at 100% of the table loads if W 3 ". If W 3", use N10 nails at 0.64 of the table load. If W 3", use 10d nails at 0.84 of the table load. HU is available with A flanges concealed, provided the W dimension is 2 or greater, at 100% of the table load. Specify HUC. HU is available with one flange concealed when the W dimension is less than 2 at 100% of the table load. For skewed only HUC hangers, the flange on the acute side can be concealed at 100% of the table load. See table for skew limitations. For sloped only hangers, flanges can be concealed at 100% of the table load. For sloped and skewed hangers, the flange on the acute side can be concealed at 0.80 of the table load. Consult the factory for skew limitations. When nailing into the carrying members end grain, the allowable load is 0.67 of the table load. For welding see Technical Bulletin T-HUHUC-W. U/HU Typical HUC Installation on a Post (Concealed Flanges) Typical HUC Installed on a Beam Typical HUTF Sloped Down Installation Typical HU Sloped Down, Skewed Right Installation Top View U Hanger Skewed Right 51 (Square Cut) Maximum Skew Degree for Skewed HUC Hangers 1. Widths greater than 3 " maximum skew is 45 . Top View HUTF Hanger Skewed Right See Hanger Options General Notes. SLOPED AND/OR SKEWED SEAT HUTF can be skewed to a maximum of 45 or sloped to a maximum of 45 . HUTF can be skewed and sloped down only, provided W 2 ". Hangers with a skew greater than 15 may have all the joist nailing on the outside angle. No skew with slope up options available. For the skewed-only HU34TF, HU24-2TF and HU44TF, the allowable loads are 0.50 of the table load. All other models have a maximum allowable load of 0.60 of the table loads. For skews greater than 15 , uplift loads are 0.75 of the table loads. For sloped and skewed hangers, the allowable loads are 0.70 of the table loads. For sloped down only hangers, allowable load is 0.78 of the table load. CONCEALED FLANGE HUTF is available with one A flange concealed provided the W dimension is 2 or greater, at 0.85 of the table load. Specify HUCTF. No skew options available. HUTF Top View U Hanger Skewed Right 50 (Square Cut) Typical WM Top Flange Offset Left See Hanger Options General Notes. INSTALLATION: Bevel-cut the joist for skewed hangers (see illustration). HANGER HEIGHT For hanger heights exceeding the joist height, the allowable load is 0.50 of the table load. SLOPED AND/OR SKEWED SEAT WM/WMI may be skewed and/or sloped to 45 maximum. The allowable load is 100% of the table load. OFFSET TOP FLANGE The top flange may be offset left or right for placement at the end of a header. The allowable load is 0.50 of the table roof load. UPLIFT No modifications on WMU. WM/WMI/WMU Typical WM Sloped Down, Skewed Right Block Wall Installation Hanger Width Maximum Skew 2 " 2 " 2 " 2 " 3 " 3 " 3 " 3 " 26 26 29 29 37 38 39 42
