See table. See Hanger Options for hanger modifications, which may result in reduced loads.

GLT and HGLT accommodate typical structural requirements for timber and glulam beams. GLT top flange depth allows installation on minimum 4x ledger (3 1/2" net). Not acceptable for nailer applications. Funnel Flanges™ allow easy installation of beams.

GLS and HGLS are heavy glulam saddle hangers. Tested and code-listed seismic tie provisions are added to the GLS or HGLS - order GLST or HGLST. The seismic tie models use three extra 3/4" bolts through each carried member and two 3/4" bolts through the supporting member. Bolt holes shall be a minimum of 1/32" to a maximum of 1/16" larger than the bolt diameter (2005 NDS 11.1.2.2).

Material: See table.

Finish: Simpson gray paint. Hot-dip galvanized available; specify HDG.

Installation:

• Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes.

GLT/HGLT

• All GLTs used with sawn timbers have a 12" L dimension.
• Fasteners are included.
• GLT may be attached to steel headers by 3/16" x 2 1/2" fillet welds at each end of the header angle to obtain the tabulated loads. HGLT may be attached to steel headers by 1/4" x 2 1/2" fillet welds at each end of the header angle to obtain the lesser of the tabulated loads or 12,000 lbs. For uplift loads refer to T-WELDUPLFT. See welding information.
• Not for use with SCL or LVL headers. See GLTV, HGLTV.

GLS/HGLS

• N54A nails are included with the hangers.
• Seismic Ties: the carried member bolts should be located in the upper half of the 13/16" x 1 1/2" slotted holes. Standard washers must be used with all bolts.
• Loads listed are per stirrup.

To Order:

• GLS/HGLS - Specify H₁, H₂, and S dimensions (see illustration).
• Some engineered wood sizes are also available.
