91 Engineered Wood Structural Composite Lumber Connectors FACE MOUNT HANGERS U/HU I-Joist Structural Composite Lumber Hangers FACE MOUNT HANGERS HUCQ/HUS/HHUS/HGUS Double Shear SCL Hangers HUS410 Typical HU7 Installation Typical HUCQ Installed on End of a Beam Typical HU7 Installation See Hanger tables on pages 92 to 96. See Hanger Options on page 188 for hanger modifications, which may result in reduced loads. These hangers have the highest loads of any face mount hangers! All hangers in this series have double shear nailing, except the HUCQ. This patented innovation distributes the load through two points on each joist nail for greater strength. It also allows the use of fewer nails, faster installation, and the use of common nails for all connections. (Do not bend or remove tabs) MATERIAL: See tables, pages 92 to 96. FINISH: Galvanized. Some products available in stainless steel or Z-MAX; see Corrosion-Resistance, page 6-7. INSTALLATION Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Do not use double shear hangers with I-joists. Nails must be driven at an angle through the joist or truss into the header to achieve the table loads. Not designed for welded or nailer applications. 16d sinkers (0.148" dia. x 3 long) may be used where 10d commons are specified with no reduction in load. Where 16d commons are specified, 10d commons or 16d sinkers (0.148" dia. x 3 long) may be used at 0.85 of the table load. With 3x carrying members, use 16dx2 nails into the header and 16d commons into the joist with no load reduction. With 2x carrying members, use 10dx1 nails into the header and 10d commons into the joist, and reduce the load to 0.64 of the table value. Install HUCQs with SDS wood screws which are supplied with the hanger. OPTIONS: HUS hangers available with the header flanges turned in for 3 wide joist only, with no load reduction. See HUSC Concealed Flange illustration. Concealed flanges are not available for HGUS, HUS1.81/10 and HHUS. See Hanger Options, page 188, for sloped and/or skewed HHUS and HGUS models. Other sizes available; consult your Simpson representative.

Uplift loads have been increased for earthquake or wind loading, with no further increase allowed. 2. Download columns apply to either Douglas Fir-Larch/Southern Pine carrying members, or structural composite lumber carrying members that have fastener holding capacity of Douglas Fir. 3. When using structural composite lumber columns, screws must be applied to the wide face of the column. HUC412 Concealed Flanges See Hanger tables on pages 92 to 96. See Hanger Options on page 188 for hanger modifications, which may result in reduced loads. U The standard U hanger provides flexibility of joist to header installation. Versatile fastener selection with tested allowable loads. HU Most models have triangle and round holes. To achieve maximum loads, fill both round and triangle holes with common nails. These heavy-duty connectors are designed for schools and other structures requiring additional strength, longevity and safety factors. MATERIAL: See tables on pages 92 to 96. FINISH: Galvanized INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. HU can be installed filling round holes only, or filling round and triangle holes for maximum values. Web Stiffeners are required for all I-joists used with these hangers. OPTIONS: HU hangers available with the header flanges turned in for 2 and larger widths, with no load reduction order HUC hanger. See Hanger Options on page 188 and 191, for sloped and/or skewed U/HU models, and HUC (concealed flange) models. See also HUS series. Model configurations may differ from those shown. Some HU models do not have triangle holes. Consult factory for details.
