This table assumes joists with Fc = 750 psi. For other joists, check that bearing and joist nails are adequate. 2. This table assumes joist width of 2 or greater. See main table for loads specific to actual widths. 3. Uplift loads have been increased 33% and 60% for seismic and wind loading with no further increase allowed. Divide by 1.33 and 1.60 for normal loading such as cantilever construction. 4. Loads may not be increased for short term loading. 5. Web stiffeners required when more than two joist nails are used. 6. SCL (structural composite lumber) is LVL (laminated veneer lumber), Parallam PSL and TimberStrand LSL. 7. Code values are based on DF/SP header species. 8. 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. 9. 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. Parallam and TimberStrand are registered trademarks of Trus Joist, a Weyerhaeuser company.

See Installation Information. BA LBV features Positive Angle Nailing, no web stiffeners are required HB (B Similar) NAILER TABLE This shows the maximum allowable loads for BA, LBV, B, and HB hangers used on wood nailers. Nailers are wood members attached to the top of a steel I-beam, concrete or masonry wall. This table also applies to sloped-seat hangers. 1. Based on an additional beyond the normal deflection limit. NAILS: 16d 0.162" dia. x 3 long, 16dx2 0.162" dia. x 2 long, 10d 0.148" dia. x 3" long, 10dx1 0.148" dia. x 1 long. See page 16-17 for other nail sizes and information. The BA hanger is a cost effective hanger targeted at high capacity I-joists and common Structural Composite Lumber applications. A min/max joist nail option gives dual use of this hanger. Minimum values featuring Positive Angle Nailing are targeted at I-joist without web stiffeners requirement and the maximum nailing generates higher loads to support structural composite lumber. The unique two level embossment provides added stiffness to the top flange. The newly improved LBV, B and HB hangers offer wide versatility for I-joists and structural composite lumber. The enhanced load capacity widens the range of applications for these hangers. The LBV still features Positive Angle Nailing and does not require the use of web stiffeners for standard non modified I-joist installations. See Top Flange tables on pages 104 to 113. See Hanger Options on page 188 for hanger modifications, which may result in reduced loads. MATERIAL: See tables, pages 104 to 113. FINISH: LBV, B, BA and HB Galvanized; all saddle hangers and all welded sloped and special hangers Simpson gray paint. LBV, B, BA and HB may be ordered hot-dip galvanized; specify HDG. INSTALLATION: Use specified fasteners. See General Notes and nailer table. LBV, B, BA and HB may be used for weld-on applications. Weld size to match material thickness (approximate thickness shown). The minimum required weld to the top flanges is x 2" fillet weld to each side of each top flange tab for 14 and 12 gauge and x 2" fillet weld to each side of each top flange tab for 7 gauge and 10 gauge. Distribute the weld equally on both top flanges. Welding cancels the top and face nailing requirements. Consult the code for special considerations when welding galvanized steel. The area should be well-ventilated, see page 14 for weld information. Weld on applications produce the maximum allowable down load listed. Uplift loads do not apply to welded applications. LBV hangers do not require the use of web stiffeners for non-sloped or non-skewed applications. B and HB hangers require the use of web stiffeners. BA MIN nailing does not require web stiffeners. BA MAX nailing requires the use of web stiffeners. Ledgers must be evaluated for each application separately. Check TF dimension, nail length and nail location on ledger. OPTIONS: LBV, B and HB Other widths are available; specify W dimension (the minimum W dimension is 1 "). The finish on special B hangers will depend on the manufacturing process used. Check with your Simpson representative for details. Hot-dipped galvanized available: specify HDG. See Hanger Options, page 188. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.
