L/LS/GA Reinforcing and Skewable Angles

Installation

View step-by-step installation instructions

L—Staggered nail pattern reduces the possibility for splitting.

LS—Field-adjustable 0° to 135° angles.

The GA Gusset Angles' embossed bend section provides added strength.

Material: L—16 gauge; GA and LS—18 gauge

Finish: Galvanized. Some products available in stainless steel or ZMAX® coating; see Corrosion Information.

Installation:

Use all specified fasteners; see General Notes.
LS—field skewable; bend one time only.
Joist must be constrained against rotation (for example, with solid blocking) when using a single LS per connection.
Nail the L angle's wider leg into the joist to ensure table loads and allow correct nailing.

Some products may be installed with the Strong-Drive® SD Structural Connector screw - click here for details

These products are available with additional corrosion protection. Additional products on this page may also be available with this option, check with Simpson Strong-Tie for details.

These models are approved for installation with the Strong-Drive SD Structural-Connector screw.
See the load values.

L angles—loads are for condition F₁ or F₂;
LS angles—loads are for condition F₁ only.
GA1 and GA2 angles table loads are F₁ — loads for F₂ are 220 and 335 lbs. (100) and 280 and 415 lbs. (125), respectively.
Roof loads are 125% of floor loads unless limited by other criteria.
Connectors are required on both sides to achieve F₂ loads in both directions.
L angles may be installed with 10dx1 1/2 nails and achieve full load.
NAILS: 16d = 0.162" dia. x 3 1/2" long,
10d = 0.148" dia. x 3" long,
10dx1 1/2 = 0.148" dia. x 1 1/2" long.
