Cold-Formed Steel: HU & HUC Hangers

Flare Bevel
Groove Weld
Detail

Lap Joint Fillet Weld

Flare Bevel
Groove Weld
Detail

Material: 68 mil (14 ga).

Finish: Galvanized.

Installation: HU series hangers may be welded to supporting structural steel members.

Use 1" weld segments equally spaced top to bottom, with half the segments on each side of hanger.
Welds may be either Lap Joint (on outside edge of flanges) or Flare Bevel Groove (on flange bend line).

Design loads must not exceed catalog capacity for specific hanger used.
Loads assume an E-70S-6 (60 ksi) filler rod.
CAUTION: Welding galvanized steel may produce harmful fumes; follow proper welding procedures and safety precautions. Welding should be in accordance with A.W.S. standards.
Welds must conform to the current A.W.S. D1.3 structural welding code for sheet steel.
This connection involves welding 68 mil (14 ga) to heavy structural steel. It should only be performed by A.W.S. certified welders for each joint type.
All joist fasteners must be installed. Webs are required at side flanges of the hangers for installation of the joist fasteners.
Allowable loads shall not exceed the calculated capacity of the fasteners or welds and shall not exceed the allowable load shown in the table on the HU/HUC page from the "Wood Construction Connectors" section.
The Designer shall insure that the joist member adequately transfers load to the hanger.
Tabulated loads are governed by tests and may not be increased. Refer to Steel Stress Increase for additional information.
