HANGER OPTIONS
See Hanger Options General Notes.
INSTALLATION: Bevel-cut the carried beam for
skewed hangers.
HANGER HEIGHT
For hangers exceeding the joist height by ",
allowable load is 50% of the table roof load.
SLOPED AND/OR SKEWED SEAT
GLT/GLTV/HGLT/HGLTV and GLS/HGLS series may
be skewed to a maximum of 50 or sloped to a
maximum of 45 .
For skews greater than 15 , multiply the table uplift
load by 0.50.
For sloped only, the maximum allowable load is
6500 lbs. for the GLT/GLS/GLTV, 9165 lbs. for the
HGLT/HGLS/HGLTV.
For skewed only, the maximum allowable load is
6550 lbs. for the GLT/GLS/GLTV, 7,980 lbs. for the
HGLT/HGLS/HGLTV. The deflection at full loading
may reach ".
Sloped and skewed GLT/GLS/GLTV configurations
have a maximum allowable load of 5500 lbs.
Sloped and skewed combinations are not
allowed for the HGLT/HGLS/HGLTV.
SLOPED TOP FLANGE
A top flange may be sloped down left or down right
to 30 with or without a sloped and/or skewed seat
(see illustration). Reduce allowable table loads
using straight-line interpolation (see page 190).
OFFSET TOP FLANGE
The top flange may be offset left or right for
placement at the end of a header. Minimum seat
width 3 ". The maximum allowable load is 0.50
of the table roof load for the GLT/GLS/GLTV, and
0.45 for the HGLT/HGLS/HGLTV.
For skewed and offset top flange hangers, the
maximum allowable load is 3500 lbs.
No uplift load.

SKEWED SEAT
GH hangers may be skewed to a
maximum of 45 bevel cut required.
The allowable loads are 100%
of the table load.
Specify GHD for saddle-style
hangers. GHD may not be skewed.

SLOPED OR SKEWED SEAT, 45 MAXIMUM
The maximum allowable down load
and uplift load for slope is .74 of the
table load.
The maximum allowable down load
and uplift load for skew is .87 of the
table load.
