When attaching door and window headers to the Wood Strong-Wall®, only the HUSC46 or HUCQ410 may be used. The fastening pattern to the carrying member is grouped in toward the center of the hanger, thereby allowing installation in end conditions.

Installation:

• Nailing into the end grain of the wall’s top plate to install the HUSC results in allowable loads that are 0.67 of the table load.
• Fastening into the end grain of the wall’s top plate to install the HUCQ is not allowed.
• When installing the HUCQ, omit the two Simpson Strong-Tie® Strong-Drive® screws (SDS) closest to the point where the Wood Strong-Wall sheathing meets the post (see drawing below). Also, maintain a minimum end distance of 2" from the top of the Wood Strong-Wall post.
