Face-Mount Hangers for Solid Sawn Lumber

This product's information may differ depending on the category of use. You are currently viewing details related to Face-Mount Hangers for Solid Sawn Lumber. You can also view product information related to the category: Face-Mount Hangers for Engineered Wood

The SUR/L are 45°-skewed hangers designed to support solid sawn and engineered wood products used in wood construction. These U-shaped hangers encapsulate the top flange of the joist, so no web stiffeners are required for standard installation. The SUR and SUL hangers are identical except that they are skewed 45° to the right (SUR) and the left (SUL), respectively.

Key Features

  • Features obround nail holes on the acute side, allowing nails to be easily installed parallel to the joist
  • These hangers cannot be modified but will accommodate a 40° to 50° skewed joist
  • Features positive-angle nailing for engineered wood sizes to prevent wood splitting and to speed installation
  • Available with the A2 (acute) flange turned in to accommodate end-of-wall installation for solid sawn sizes only (SURC or SULC)

Material

  • 16 gauge

Finish

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

Installation

  • Use all specified fasteners; see General Notes.
  • The joist end may be square cut or bevel cut.
  • Fill all round and obround nail holes with specified fasteners to achieve table loads. Where noted, triangle holes in the joist flange may be filled for additional uplift capacity.
  • For I-joists with flanges less than 1 5/16", web stiffeners are required for all double joist hangers when using hangers that are 14 gauge and lighter.

Load Tables

    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.

    For stainless-steel fasteners, see Fastener Types and Sizes Specified for Simpson Strong-Tie Connectors.

    Many of these products are approved for installation with Strong-Drive® SD Connector screws.

SUR/SUL Load Table
  1. Uplift loads have been increased for earthquake or wind loading with no further increase allowed. Reduce where other loads govern.
  2. Roof loads are 125% of floor loads unless limited by other criteria. Floor loads may be adjusted for load durations according to the code provided they do not exceed those in the roof column.
  3. Truss chord cross-grain tension may limit allowable loads in accordance with ANSI/TPI 1-2014. Simpson Strong-Tie® Connector Selector™ software includes the evaluation of cross-grain tension in its hanger allowable loads. For additional information, contact Simpson Strong-Tie.
  4. Fasteners: Nail dimensions in the table are listed diameter by length. For additional information, see Fastener Types and Sizes Specified for Simpson Strong-Tie Connectors.

  1. Uplift loads have been increased for wind or earthquake loading with no further increase allowed: reduce where other loads govern.
  2. Triangle nail holes may be filled (requires web stiffeners) with SD9112 screws for additional uplift
    • SUR/SUL 9– and 11– inch models have (4) additional holes, that when filled can resist 715 lbs. for Douglas Fir or Southern Pine or 615 lbs. for SPF/HF.
    • SUR/SUL 14– inch models have (6) additional holes, that when filled can resists 970 lbs. for DF/SP and 835 lbs. for SPF/HF.
  3. When the supported member is an I-joist with flanges less than 1 5/16 inches thick, the allowable uplift shall not exceed 155 lbs. without web stiffeners.
  4. Allowable downloads are based on a joist bearing capacity of 750 psi for EWP, 565 psi for DF/SP solid sawn lumber, and 425 psi for SPF/HF solid sawn lumber.
