OPTIONAL NAILING FOR INCREASED UPLIFT
NAILER TABLE
This table indicates the maximum allowable loads for ITT/MIT/HIT
hangers used on wood nailers. The header nail
type must be substituted for those listed in other tables.
1. Loads are based on Doug Fir, and have been increased 33% and 60% for wind
or earthquake loading with no further increase allowed. Reduce according to
the code for normal loading criteria such as in cantilever construction.
2. Web stiffeners are required on I-joist for additional nailing.
1. These hangers may deflect an additional at design load.

1.
Uplift loads are based on Douglas Fir, and have been increased 33% and 60% for earthquake
or wind loading with no further increase allowed. Divide by 1.33 and 1.60 for normal loading
criteria like cantilever construction. For SPF use 0.86 x DF/SP uplift load.
2. Titen masonry screws are x1 .
3.
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.
4. DF I-joists include flanges made from solid sawn Douglas Fir, LVL made primarily of
Douglas Fir/Southern Pine, or LSL. For flanges with thicknesses from 1 to 1 , use
0.85 of the I-joist header load. For flanges with thicknesses from1 to 1 , use 0.75 of
the I-joist header load.
5.
Minimum solid header thickness to achieve ITT table loads is 1 ".
6.
SCL, structural composite lumber, is laminated veneer lumber, Parallam
PSL and TimberStrand LSL.
7.
Code Values are based on DF/SP header species.
8. ITTM loads are based on 2000 psi minimum concrete or grout.
9. I-joists with flanges less than 1 thick used in combination with
hangers thinner than 14 gauge may deflect an additional inch
beyond the standard limit.
10. Mid-wall installation requires minimum of one grouted course above
and below the hanger.
11. ITTM411.88, ITTM414, and ITTM416 models are available.
