Load Tables
These products are available with additional corrosion protection.
- See Straps and Ties General Notes.
- For SPF/HF lumber, use 0.85 x DF/SP allowable loads.
- Parts should be centered on the face of the member, which is at least as wide as the angle, to which they are attached.
- Wood members for the "3" and "5" series must have a minimum width and thickness of 3 1/2" for table loads to apply.
- Wood members for the "4" and "7" series must have a minimum width and thickness of 5 1/8" for table loads to apply.
- Allowable loads are for a single connector. Uplift loads may be doubled when using two connectors. Connectors are required on both sides to achieve lateral loads in both directions. Lateral loads may not be doubled.
- Lag screws of equal diameter (minimum 5" long) may be substituted for bolts in the beam with no reduction in load.
