The W, WP, WPU, HWU and HW series are designed to hang joists, purlins or beams. WM and WMU hangers are designed for use on standard 8" grouted masonry block wall construction.

Material: See tables.

Allowable Loads: For hanger heights exceeding the joist height, the allowable load is 0.50 of the table load.

Installation:

Options:
Some model configurations may differ from those shown. Contact Simpson for details.

Typical WM Installation with Alternate Nailing Pattern (ANP)

Correct Nailer Attachment  

top Nailer Table:

The table indicates the maximum allowable loads for W, WP and HW hangers used on wood nailers. Nailers are wood members attached to the top of a steel I-beam, concrete or masonry wall. This table also applies to sloped-seat hangers.

Table
  1. Uplift values for the WPU and HWU hangers are for depths <18". Refer to uplift values in table below for taller depths.
  2. Attachment of nailer to supporting member is the responsibility of the Designer.
top W Series with Various Header Applications:
Table
  1. 16d sinkers (9 ga x 3”) may be used where 10d commons are called out with no load reduction.
  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.
  3. SCL, structural composite lumber, is laminated veneer lumber, Parallam® PSL and TimberStrand® LSL.
  4. Applies to LVL headers made primarily from Douglas Fir or Southern Pine. For LVL made primarily from Spruce Pine Fir or similar
    less dense veneers, use the values found in the SPF column.
  5. I-joist header with SPF flanges will support 2030 lbs.
  6. WP/WPI quantity of nail holes in top flange varies.
  7. Top Flange Hangers on the following pages with "I" in the model name (e.g. HWI) use the same design information in the above tables for the models without the "I" in the name (e.g. HW).
  8. Minimum f'm = 1500 psi. Refer to Installation Notes for further explanation of applications..
  9. NAILS: 16d and 16d DPLX = 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. See other nail sizes and information.
