Hanger Options - B/LBV/HB/HHB/GB/HGB

Material:

Gauge may vary from that specified depending on the manufacturing process used. Hanger configurations, height and fastener schedules may vary from the tables depending on the joist size, skew and slope.

Codes:

Loads:

For multiple modifications on the same connector, use the single multiplier factor that yields the lowest design loads.

Installation:

Fastener quantities will typically increase beyond the amount specified in the standard hanger tables.
Web stiffeners are required for I-joists.
Fill all holes with the table-specified fastener types.
Bevel cut the carried member for skewed applications.

SADDLE HANGER Saddle hangers are made to order; add “D” to model (e.g. BD412); specify S (for saddle) dimension. They may be used for most conditions except at end wall locations and are preferred for nailer applications. Minimum S dimension (saddle width) is 3 9/16". Minimum member width is 3 1/2". Minimum nailer thickness apply (see JB/LB/B/BA/HHB (Solid Sawn) and LBV/BA/B/HB (Engineered Wood Products)). Saddle hangers achieve catalog load listed. Saddle hangers on stud walls do not achieve catalog loads.

Use this table to calculate allowable loads for modified hangers. Apply the reduction factor to the appropriate allowable load for the header condition including headers.
B and HB hangers less than 2 1/2" wide are assumed to use 10dx1 1/2 joist nails.
B and HB hangers 2 1/2" or wider are assumed to use 16dx2 1/2 or 16d common nails in the joist.
For B and HB hangers with TF Down that are less than 5 3/8" in width, minimum hanger height is 11 1/4 inches.
These hangers may deflect an additional 1/32" at design load.
For HB hangers on nailers, 100% of allowable nailer uplift value may be used. (See nailer table)
For hangers with slope and skew less than 14" use 1150 lbs. for B hangers and 1430 lbs. for HB hangers.
In the table the term "x" refers to the angle of the modification.
For top flange closed option, install upper nails slightly angled downward to avoid interference with top flange.
