THAI I-Joist & Structural Composite Lumber Hangers

Designed for I-joists, the THAI has extra long straps and can be field-formed to give height adjustability and top flange hanger convenience. Positive angle nailing helps eliminate splitting of the I-joist's bottom flange.

Material: THAI-2 - 14 gauge; all others - 18 gauge

Finish: Galvanized

Installation:

Factory order the THAI-2 for hanger width needed. See table for allowable widths.
Use all specified fasteners. Verify that the header can take the required fasteners specified in the table.
Web stiffeners are required for all I-joists used with these hangers.
When a total of 20 face nails are used in THAI straps, or 30 face nails are used in THAI-2 straps, the maximum load-carrying capacity is achieved.
Reduce the load given by the allowable nail shear capacity for each nail less than maximum.
A minimum nailing configuration is shown for top nailing installations. The strap must be field-formed over the top of the header by a minimum of 2 1/2".

Uplift loads are based on DF/SP lumber and have been increased 33% and 60% for wind or earthquake loading with no further increase allowed. Divide (133) Load by 1.33 for normal loading such as in cantilever construction. For SPF use 0.86 x DF/SP uplift load.
Roof loads are 125% of floor loads unless limited by other criteria.
The minimum header depth to achieve the maximum nail configuration is 16".
NAILS: 10d = 0.148" dia. x 3" long, 10dx1 1/2 = 0.148" dia. x 1 1/2" long. See other nail sizes and information.
