HRC Hip Ridge Connectors
The HRC series are field slopeable connectors that attach hips to ridge members or trusses. The HRC may be sloped to 45° with no reduction in loads.
For complementary top plate connection, see HCP Hip Corner Plates.
For additional SCL sizes, see HRC/HHRC.
Material: 16 gauge.
Finish: Galvanized
Installation:
- Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes.
- On end of ridge - use optional diamond holes to secure the HRC. Bend face flanges back flush with ridge, and complete nailing.
- On face of ridge - adjust to correct height and install nails.
- Double bevel cut hip members to achieve full bearing capacity.
- The HRC may be sloped to 45° with no reduction in loads.

- Roof loads are 125% of floor loads unless limited by other criteria.
- NAILS: 10d x 1 1/2 = 0.148" dia. x 1 1/2" long. See other nail sizes and information.
