<ol>
  <li>
    Design loads must not exceed the current
    <i>Wood Construction Connectors</i> catalog capacity for specific hanger and
    application used.
  </li>
  <li>Loads assume E-70XX weld material (e.g., E-70S-E).</li>
  <li>
    Caution: Welding galvanized steel may produce harmful fumes; follow proper
    welding procedures and safety precautions. Welding should be in accordance
    with A.W.S. standards.
  </li>
  <li>
    Welds must conform to the current A.W.S. D1.3 structural welding code for
    sheet steel.
  </li>
  <li>
    This connection involves welding 14 gauge to heavy structural steel. It
    should only be performed by skilled, qualified welders.
  </li>
  <li>
    For uplift loads, use values for wood-to-wood connectors shown in the
    current <i>Wood Construction Connectors</i> catalog.
