Our customers play an important role in designing and building structures that are stronger and safer. Now, more than ever, theres a great need to create homes and buildings that are better able to resist high winds, hurricanes, earthquakes and other natural disasters. Using Simpson products in a continuous load path system better equips structures to withstand the forces of Mother Nature. As weve seen, this path can make the difference in whether a home or building is still intact after a major storm or seismic event. Simpson Strong-Tie is proud to manufacture products that contribute to the strength and safety of structures, and equally proud to support our customers whose primary job is to make sure those structures are still standing after a natural disaster. We salute the work you do each day and pledge to continue providing the products and services youve come to expect. Together, were creating the path to building safer structures.

BPS
Bearing Plate
The BPS is a 3"x3" bearing plate that offers increased flexibility while meeting the latest code requirement. The slotted hole provides adjustability to account for bolts that are not in the middle of the sill plate. Page 23
MASP
Mudsill Anchor
The MAS series provides a versatile means to connect the mudsill to the foundation. The MASP is configured for installation on panelized forms. Page 24-25
SSWBP
Bearing Plate
The Steel Strong-Wall has now been tested on raised wood floor systems and second story applications using the new SSWBP Bearing Plate. The SSWBP is designed to disperse compression forces and help prevent crushing when the wall is under load. Each kit includes two C\," thick bearing plates that match up with the Steel Strong-Wall model specified and eight SDS Z\v"x3" screws required for installation. Page 60
LUCZ
Introducing Simpsons first concealed flange joist hanger for 2x lumber. The LUCZs concealed flange design provides cleaner lines for visible applications such as second story decks and patio covers. Its also narrower, allowing joists to be installed flush with the end of a ledger or header where typical face-mount hangers will not perform. Page 72
ITS
The ITS installs faster than any other EWP top flange hanger. Once the hanger is installed on the header, just position the joist and snap it down into place. The new Strong-Grip seat securely holds the joist without any joist nails. Load values are equal to or better than the ITT hanger for Douglas Fir and structural composite lumber headers. Page 102-103
LGUM/HGUM
Girder Hanger
The LGUM and HGUM are high capacity face mount girder hangers for concrete and masonry that blend performance with ease of installation. The absence of a top flange allows the hanger to be installed in various locations. Anchorage into the wall is simple using Titen HD screw anchors, and SDS screws make fastening the girder quick and easy. Page 153
H10S
Hurricane Tie
The H10S provides a high capacity connection from rafter-to-top plate-to-stud. Ideal for applications where the stud falls underneath the rafter, the H10S eliminates the need for two connectors to tie rafters to wall studs. A flexible nailing pattern allows installation where the stud is offset from the rafter up to 1". Suitable for wood-to-wood and wood to CMU/concrete applications. Page 157 and 167-169
C-2007 2006 SIMPSON STRONG-TIE COMPANY INC. PRINTED 12/06
VGT
The Variable Girder Tiedown (VGT) is a higher capacity alternative to the HGT and MGT for girder trusses. It attaches to the side of the truss with SDS screws, allowing it to be used in new or retrofit applications. The VGT is suitable for trusses with 2x4 or 2x6 top chords and features a predeflected crescent washer that allows it to accommodate top chord pitches between 3:12 and 8:12. Page 159 and 172
TSP
The Twist Stud Plate (TSP) offers higher loads and fastens to the side of the stud to eliminate interference with drywall installation. Suitable for both top plate and sill plate applications. Page 173
NEW PRODUCTS
New products are shown with the symbol. There are also many new sizes within existing model series.
VALUE ENGINEERED
This icon indicates a product that is preferable to similar connectors because of a) easier installation, b) higher loads, c) lower installed cost, or a combination of these features.
CHANGES IN RED
This icon identifies products that are available with additional corrosion protection (ZMAX, Hot-Dip Galvanized Stainless Steel or the SDS double-barrier coating). Other products may also be available with additional protection, check with factory for options.

CORROSION INFORMATION
CORROSION INFORMATION
General Simpson Recommendations
Outdoor environments are generally more corrosive to steel. If you choose to use ZMAX or HDG on an outdoor project (i.e. deck, patio cover), you should periodically inspect your connectors and fasteners or have a professional inspection performed. Regular maintenance including water-proofing of the wood used in your outdoor project is also a good practice. For wood with actual retention levels greater than 0.40 pcf for ACQ, 0.41 pcf for CBA-A, or 0.21 pcf for CA-B (Ground Contact), Stainless Steel connectors and fasteners are recommended. Verify actual retention level with the wood treater. When using Stainless Steel connectors, use Stainless Steel fasteners. When using ZMAX/HDG galvanized connectors, use fasteners galvanized per ASTM A153. Testing indicates wood installed dry reduces potential corrosion. If dry wood is used, see our website for additional information. Using a barrier membrane can provide additional corrosion protection, see Technical Bulletin T-PTBARRIER (see page 199 for details) . Due to the many variables involved, Simpson cannot provide estimates on service life of connectors, anchors or fasteners. We suggest that all users and specifiers also obtain recommendations for HDG, ZMAX (G185), mechanically galvanized, or other coatings from the treated wood supplier for the type of wood used. However, as long as Simpsons recommendations are followed, Simpson stands behind its product performance and our standard warranty (page 15) applies.
Consider the type of structure and how it will be used. These recommendations may not apply to non-structural applications such as fences. Testing and experience indicate that indoor dry environments are less corrosive than outdoor environments. Determining the type of environment where a connector or fastener will be used is an important factor in selecting the most appropriate material and finish for use on the connectors and fasteners. To help in your decision making, consider the following general exposure information: Interior Dry Use: Includes wall and ceiling cavities, and raised floor applications of enclosed buildings that have been designed to ensure that condensation and other sources of moisture do not develop. Exterior Dry: Includes outdoor installations in low rainfall environments and no regular exposure to moisture. Exterior Wet: Includes outdoor installations in higher moisture and rainfall environments. Higher Exposure Use: Includes exposure to ocean salt air, fire retardants, large bodies of water, fumes, fertilizers, soil, some preservative treated woods, industrial zones, acid rain, and other corrosive elements.
If these recommendations are different, Simpson recommends that the most conservative recommendation be followed.
Low = Use Simpson standard painted and G90 galvanized connectors as a minimum. Med = Use ZMAX/HDG galvanized connectors as a minimum. Use fasteners galvanized per ASTM A153 or SDS screws with double-barrier coating. High = Use Type 303, 304, 305 or 316 Stainless Steel connectors and fasteners.

The treated wood supplier should provide all the information needed regarding the wood being used. This information should include: the specific type of wood treatment used, if ammonia was used in the treatment, and the chemical retention level. If the needed information is not provided then Simpson would recommend the use of Stainless Steel connectors and fasteners. You should also ask the treated wood supplier for a connector coating or material recommendation.

the chart on the right, which was created based on Simpsons 4 Use testing and experience to select the connector finish or material.
If a pressure treated wood product is not identified on the chart, Simpson has not evaluated test results regarding such product and therefore cannot make any recommendation other than the use of Stainless Steel with that product. Manufacturers may independently provide test results or other product use information; Simpson expresses no opinion regarding any such information.
1. Woods with actual retention levels greater than 0.40 pcf for ACQ, 0.41 pcf for CBA-A, or 0.21 pcf for CA-B (Ground Contact level). 2. Borate treated woods are not appropriate for outdoor use. 3. Test results indicate that ZMAX /HDG and the SDS double-barrier coating will perform adequately, subject to regular maintenance and periodic inspection. However, the nationally-approved test method used, AWPA E12-94, is an accelerated test, so data over an extended period of time is not available. If uncertain, use Stainless Steel. 4. Some treated wood may have excess surface chemicals making it potentially more corrosive. If you suspect this or are uncertain, use Stainless Steel. 5. Where noted in the table, applications where the wood is dry (moisture content less than 19%) when installed and will remain dry in-service may use a minimum coating recommendation of Low.

Bearing Plates give greater bearing surface than standard cut washers, and help distribute the load at these critical connections. The BP-3 and BP-3 are 3"x3" bearing plates that meet the latest requirements of the International Residential Code. These plate washers are available uncoated or with a hot dip galvanized (HDG) finish. The BPS and LBPS are 3"x3" bearing plates that offer increased flexibility while meeting the latest requirements of the code. The slotted hole allows for adjustability to account for bolts that are not in the middle of the sill plate. The BPSKT uses SDS "x1" screws to provide lateral resistance when " diameter sill holes are overdrilled (screws are provided). The shear capacity of the connection and the sill/anchor bolt shall be determined by the Designer for each installation.

Titen hd The Titen HD is a patented, high-strength screw anchor for concrete and masonry. The self-undercutting, non-expansion characteristics of the Titen HD makes it the ideal anchor for structural applications, even at minimum edge distances and under reduced spacing conditions. The proprietary cutting teeth enable the Titen HD to be installed in one eighth of the time when compared to traditional expansion anchors, and at significantly reduced installation torques. This heat-treated anchor undercuts the concrete to create a strong mechanical interlock over the entire length of the anchor. The anchor can be installed with a standard ANSI tolerance drill bit and is removeable. WARNING: Recommended for permanent dry, interior, non-corrosive environments or temporary outdoor applications. Contact Simpson for more information. CODES: ICC ESR-1056; City of L.A. RR 25560; FL 2304.2

HDU
Holdown
This product is preferable to similar connectors because of a) easier installation, b) higher loads, c) lower installed cost, or a combination of these features.
The HDU series of holdowns combine the advantages of low deflection and high capacity from the pre-deflected geometry with the ease of installation of Simpsons patented SDS screws. HDU SPECIAL FEATURES: Pre-deflected body virtually eliminates deflection due to material stretch. Uses SDS screws which install easily, reduces fastener slip, and provides a greater net section area of the post compared to bolts. SDS "x2" screws are supplied with the holdowns. (Lag screws will not achieve the same load.) This ensures the proper fasteners are used and is convenient for the installer. No stud bolts to countersink at openings. MATERIAL: See table. FINISH: Galvanized INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Place the HDU over the anchor bolt. No additional washer required. To tie double 2x members together, the Designer must determine the fasteners required to bind the members to act as one unit without splitting the wood. See page 20 for more information. See SSTB Anchor Bolts on page 33-34 for anchorage options. Refer to technical bulletin T-ANCHORSPEC for post-installed anchorage solutions (see page 199 for details) . CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

HDU
HDU may be installed raised off the sill plate with no increase in deflection values (see note 7).
For holdowns, per ASTM test standards, anchor bolt nut should be finger-tight plus to turn with a hand wrench, with consideration given to possible future wood shrinkage. Care should be taken to not over-torque the nut. Impact wrenches should not be used.

1. Allowable loads have been increased for earthquake or wind load durations with no further increase allowed; reduce where other load durations govern. 2. Loads are based on static tests on wood posts, limited by the lowest of 0.125" deflection, lowest test ultimate divided by 3 or the calculated values of the SDS "x2" screws. 3. The Designer must specify anchor bolt type, length and embedment. 4. When using structural composite lumber columns screws must be applied to the wide face of the column. 5. Post design shall be by Designer. 6. SDS screws install best with a low speed " right angle drill with a " hex head driver. 7. Deflection values are valid for holdowns flush and raised off of sill plate. Refer to note q, page 14 for installation instructions of raised holdowns.
8. Deflection at Highest Allowable Design Load: The deflection of a holdown measured between the anchor bolt and the strap portion of the holdown when loaded to the highest allowable load listed in the catalog table. This movement is strictly due to the holdown deformation under a static load test conducted on a wood jig. 9. Tabulated loads may be doubled when the HDU is installed on both sides of the wood member provided either the post is large enough or the holdowns are offset to eliminate screw interferences.

PHD
Predeflected Holdown
/ HDQ8
Holdown
PHD holdowns are predeflected during the manufacturing process, virtually eliminating deflection under load due to material stretch. The unique seat design of the HDQ8 greatly minimizes deflection under load. Each holdown uses SDS screws, which install easily, reduce fastener slip, and provides a greater net section area of the post compared to bolts. SPECIAL FEATURES: Wood screws reduce slip due to overdrilled bolt holes. Smaller centerline reduces eccentricity in the stud. No stud bolts to countersink. Fits easily in a 2x4 stud wall. MATERIAL: See table. FINISH: Galvanized. PHD2 and PHD5 available in hot-dip galvanized (HDG SDS screws included). INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Place the PHD or HDQ8 over the anchor bolt. HDQ8: " of adjustability perpendicular to the wall. HDQ8: Use in vertical and horizontal applications. Install Simpsons SDS "x3" wood screws, which are provided with the holdown. (Lag screws will not achieve the same load.) For an improved connection, use a steel nylon locking nut or a thread adhesive on the anchor bolt. (No washer required.) See SSTB Anchor Bolts, page 33-34, for anchorage options. The Designer may specify any alternate anchorage calculated to resist the tension load for a specific job. Anchorage length should take the bearing plate/washer height into account, to ensure adequate length of threads to engage the nut. For 2-2x and 3x sill plates use SSTBL models. To tie double 2x members together, the Designer must determine the fasteners required to bind members to act as one unit without splitting the wood. See page 20 for SDS values. Refer to technical bulletin T-ANCHORSPEC for post-installed anchorage solutions (see page 199 for details) . CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

Deflection at Highest Allowable Design Load: The deflection of a holdown measured between the anchor bolt and the strap portion of the holdown when loaded to the highest allowable load listed in the catalog table. This movement is strictly due to the holdown deformation under a static load test conducted on a wood jig. 6. SDS screws install best with a low speed " right angle drill with a " hex head driver. 7. SDSx3 screws are required for PHDs and HDQ8s. See technical bulletin T-HDLA for PHD loads using shorter screws (see page 199 for details) .
8. When using structural composite lumber columns, screws must be applied to the wide face of the column. 9. Tabulated loads may be doubled when the PHD or HDQ8 are installed on both sides of the wood member provided either the post is large enough or the holdowns are offset to eliminate screw interferences. 10. HDQ8s compression load requires an additional standard nut and square washer (BP-2) below the holdown. Maximum rod length is 6" from the concrete to achieve 7175 lbs using A307 steel. If rod length is longer, Designer needs to check rod for buckling capacity. 11. Maximum HDQ8 compression load is 6560 lbs. with 2-2x4 DF member. 12. Post design shall be by Designer. 13. Holdowns may be raised off sill plate. Refer to table for increased deflection values (if applicable). Refer to note q, page 14 for installation instructions of raised holdowns.

MATERIAL: 10 gauge strap. FINISH: Galvanized strap, aluminum base. INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Install on concrete. Sized for 2-2x, 4x and 2-2x6 members. Center 2-2x6 posts on holdown. Concentric to eliminate bending on the stud. Install Simpsons SDS "x2" wood screws, which are provided with the holdown. (Lag screws will not achieve the same load.) Slot in the seat allows for " of adjustment perpendicular to plate. (Standard N series cut washer required, 1" diameter - 0.134" thick.) Witness slot in the base to inspect the nut . Maximum anchor bolt height above concrete is 2". To tie double 2x members together, the Designer must determine the fasteners required to bind members to act as one unit without splitting the wood. See page 20 for SDS values. Aluminum standoff cannot be in contact with pressure-treated wood.

1. The Designer must specify anchor bolt type, length and embedment. See the SSTB Anchor Bolts (page 33-34). 2. Loads are based on static tests on wood studs, limited by the lowest of 0.125" deflection, tested lowest ultimate divided by 3, or the wood screw value. 3. Deflection at Highest Allowable Design Load: The deflection of a holdown measured between the anchor bolt and the strap portion of the holdown when loaded to the highest allowable load listed in the catalog table. This movement is strictly due to the holdown deformation under a static load test conducted on a wood jig. 4. SDS screws install best with a low speed " drill with a " hex head driver.
5. The HDCs will be limited by wood compression capacity if installed on a sill plate. HDC5/22 and HDC10/22 will achieve an allowable load of 4005 lb. on a DFL plate. HDC5/4 and HDC10/4 will achieve an allowable load of 4940 lb. on a DFL plate, which does not take deflection into account. Full tension values apply when installed on a sill, deflections may be higher. 6. Higher values may be obtained when HDC is not placed at an edge or with f'c concrete strength > 2500 psi. 7. When using structural composite lumber columns, screws must be applied to the wide face of the column. 8. Post design shall be by Designer.

Holdowns
HDA and HD holdowns resist overturning and transfer tension loads. All HDAs and the HD15 are self-jigging, ensuring code-required minimum 7 bolt diameter spacing from the end of the wood member to the center of the first bolt hole. HD6A, HD8A, HD10A and HD14As seat design allows greater installation adjustability. An overall width of 3" for the HD6A, HD8A and HD10A, and 3" for the HD14A provides an easy fit in a standard 2x4 stud wall. MATERIAL: See table on opposite page. LOADS: See table on opposite page. FINISH: HD14A and HD15Simpson gray paint. Other HDAsgalvanized. May be ordered HDG, check with factory. INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Contact engineered wood manufacturers for connections that are not through the wide face. For an improved connection, use a steel nylon locking nut or a thread adhesive on the anchor bolt. Bolt holes shall be a minimum of " to a maximum of " larger than the bolt diameter (per NDS, section 11.1.2). Standard washers are required between the base plate and anchor nut (HD15 only), and on stud bolt nuts against the wood. The Load Transfer Plate is an integral part of the HDA Holdown and no washer is required. See page 23 for BP/LBP Bearing Plates. See SSTB Anchor Bolts, Simpsons Anchoring Systems and HD10A Additional Anchorage Designs for anchorage options. The (HD6A, HD8A Designer may specify any alternate anchorage calculated to and HD14A similar) resist the tension load for a specific job. Locate on wood member to maintain a minimum distance of seven bolt diameters, distance is automatically maintained when end of wood member is flush with the bottom of the holdown. Stud bolts should be snugly tightened. To tie double 2x members together, the Designer must determine the fasteners required to bind members to act as one unit without splitting the wood. For holdowns, per ASTM test standards, Refer to technical bulletin T-ANCHORSPEC for postanchor bolt nut should be finger-tight installed anchorage solutions (see page 199 for details) . plus to turn with a hand wrench, CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart. with consideration given to possible future wood shrinkage.

Post design shall be by Designer. 11. Loads shown apply to post tension slabs when one #4 rebar (minimum) is installed as on page 43. 12. When using structural composite lumber columns, table load values represent installation into the wide face. 13. For concrete spalls between 1" and 4" the allowable loads is 0.90 of the table loads. 14. Table loads apply to stemwall applications provided there is a minimum end distance of le. See table on page 43 for loads when installed less than le. 15. Nails: 16d sinker = 0.148" dia. x 3" long. See page 16-17 for other nail sizes and information.
The STHD is an embedded strap tie holdown with high load capacity and a staggered nail pattern to help minimize splitting. The latest version of the STHD strap tie holdown incorporates many new features that improve installation and function. When used in conjunction with the StrapMate you have a system that helps prevent both parallel and perpendicular movement during installation relative to the form. Allows for accurate location of the STHDs and reduces the possibility of spalling. FEATURES The strap nailing pattern allows for nailing to the edges of double 2xs. A slot below the embedment line allows for increased front to back concrete bond and reduced spalling. Strap nail slots are countersunk to provide a lower nail head profile. Rim joist models accommodate up to a 17" clear span without any loss of strap nailing. MATERIAL: LSTHD8, LSTHD8RJ14 ga, all others12 ga. FINISH: Galvanized INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. See Post Tension information on page 43. Install before concrete pour with a StrapMate, or other holding device. Nail strap from the bottom up. Strap may be bent one full cycle. Strap may be bent one full cycle (bent horizontal 90 then bent vertical) to aid wall placement, but may cause spalling behind the strap. If the spall is 1" or less, measured from the embedment line to the bottom of the spall, full loads apply. For larger spalls see table footnotes for load reduction. Any portion of the strap left exposed should be protected against corrosion. For two pour installations spalling is measured from the first pour. Where fewer fasteners are used in the structural wood member, reduce loads according to the code. Unless otherwise noted, do NOT install where: (a) a horizontal cold joint exists within the embedment depth between the slab and foundation wall or footing beneath, unless provisions are made to transfer the load, or the slab is designed to resist the load imposed by the anchor; or (b) slabs are poured over concrete block foundation walls. To get the full table load, the minimum center-to-center spacing is twice the embedment depth when resisting tension loads at the same time. There is an increase in the amount of deflection if the strap is installed on the outside of the shear panel instead of directly to the framing. Refer to technical bulletin T-PLYWOOD (see page 199 for details) . FOUNDATION CORNERS: Nail quantities may be reduced for less than le corner distance design loadsuse the code allowable loads for fasteners in shear. To tie double 2x members together, the Designer must determine the fasteners required to bind members to act as one unit without splitting the wood. Additional studs attached to the shearwall studs or post may be required by the Designer for wall sheathing nailing. Wood shrinkage after strap installation across horizontal members may cause strap to buckle outward. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

PA/PAHD/HPAHD
Wood-to-concrete connectors that satisfy engineering and code requirements. MATERIAL: HPA10 ga; all others12 ga FINISH: Galvanized, some models available in ZMAX or HDG. INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Install before concrete pour with a StrapMate, or other holding device. Bending the strap 90 to aid wall placement may cause spalling behind the strap. If the spall is 1" or less, measured from the embedment line to the bottom of the spall, full loads apply. For spalls between 1" and 4" (see illustration on page 45), the allowable load is 0.90 of the table loads. For two pour installations spalling is measured from the first pour. Nail strap from bottom up. Strap may be bent one full cycle. Where fewer fasteners are used in the structural wood member, reduce loads according to the code. A wood splitting problem may occur when holdowns are nailed to lumber less than 3" wide. To lessen splitting of 3xs or double 2xs, either fill every nail hole with 10dx1" nails or fill every other nail hole with 16d commons. Reduce the allowable load based on the size and quantity of fasteners used. Unless otherwise noted, do NOT install where: (a) a horizontal cold joint exists within the embedment depth between the slab and foundation wall or footing beneath, unless provisions are made to transfer the load, or the slab is designed to resist the load imposed by the anchor; or (b) slabs are poured over concrete block foundation walls. To get the full table load, the minimum center-to-center spacing is twice the embedment depth when resisting tension loads at the same time. To tie double 2x members together, the Designer must determine the fasteners required to bind members to act as one unit without splitting the wood. Additional studs attached to the shearwall studs or post may be required by the Designer for wall sheathing nailing. FOUNDATION CORNERS: Nail and bolt quantities have been reduced when the load is limited by tested concrete pullout strength (fill holes from bottom up); additional nail holes need not be filled. Nail and bolt quantities may be reduced further for less than 8" corner distance design loadsuse code allowable loads for fasteners used in shear. TWO-POUR SYSTEMS: When a cold joint exists between slab and foundation, the holdown will be lower on the stud wall since the embedded portion of the holdown must be in the foundation (see table footnote 1 for exception). Fewer fasteners are used, reducing allowable loads. Loads are calculated using a 4" slab over 6" and 8" foundation walls. PAHD42, HPAHD22, HPAHD22-2P HOLDOWNS: Designed to be installed at the edge of concrete. Tests determined the pullout strength with one horizontal #4 rebar in the shear cone. Rebar should be a minimum length of 2x embedment depth + 12" (except corner installations, page 45). Install before pouring concrete by nailing to form. Installation holes allow nailing to the form, resulting in 1" deeper embedment; see illustration. OPTIONS: See also STHD Holdowns, LTT, MTT, HTT Tension Ties. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

1. Loads may not be increased for short-term loading. 2. Allowable loads are determined using the lowest of the bearing loads using Fc equal to 425 psi for SPF, 625 psi for DF and 700 for LVL/PSL, or the 8 lally column capacity. 3. Loads are for a continuous beam. 4. Spliced conditions must be detailed by the Designer to transfer tension loads between spliced members by
means other than the lally column. The splice condition load is 6750 lbs per beam side and the lally cap must be evenly loaded. 5. To achieve lateral loads, LCC pipe must be welded to the column with an " fillet weld around the entire pipe. 6. Nails: 16d = 0.162" dia. x 3" long. See page 16-17 for other nail sizes and information.

Column Caps
This product is preferable to similar connectors because of a) easier installation, b) higher loads, c) lower installed cost, or a combination of these features.
This design uses SDS screws to provide faster installation and provides a greater net section area of the column compared to bolts. The SDS screws provide for a lower profile compared to standard through bolts. MATERIAL: CCQ3, ECCQ3, CCQ4, ECCQ4, CCQ6, ECCQ67 gauge; all others3 gauge. FINISH: Simpson gray paint, available in HDG with HDG screws. CCOQ and ECCOQno finish INSTALLATION: Fasteners provided. See General Notes. Install Simpsons SDS "x2" wood screws, which are provided with the column cap. (Lag screws will not achieve the same load.) CCOQ and ECCOQ column cap only (no straps) may be ordered for field-welding to pipe or other columns. Dimensions are same as CCQ and ECCQ, but load values do not apply. OPTIONS: For end conditions, specify ECCQ. Straps may be rotated 90 where W1 W2. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

1. Downloads are determined using Fc equal to: 560 psi for glulam sizes and 625 psi for all others; reduce where end grain bearing or buckling capacity of the column, or other criteria are limiting. 2. Spliced conditions must be detailed by the Designer to transfer tension loads between spliced members by means other than the column cap. 3. Uplift loads do not apply to splice conditions. 4. Post sides are assumed to lie in the same vertical plane as the beam sides. 5. Loads may not be increased for short-term loading. 6. Uplift loads have been increased for earthquake or wind load durations with no further increase allowed; reduce where other load durations govern. 7. ECCQ downloads assume a post of W1 x W2. 8. When using structural composite lumber columns, screws must be applied to the wide face of the column. 9. ECCQ uses 14-SDS screws into the beam and 14-SDS screws into the post. 10. Beam depth must be greater than 7". 11. For 5Z\v " engineered lumber, use CCQ6X models.

Column Caps
There are cost-effective alternatives for replacing column caps by using a combination of connectors. Here are some examples. Designer must specify the options required.
NOTE: The side stirrup will be welded flush with the top of the main cap.
W1
MATERIAL: CC3, CC44, CC46, CC48, CC64, CC66, CC68, CC6-77 gauge; all others3 gauge FINISH: Simpson gray paint; may be ordered HDG; CCOno finish. INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Bolt holes shall be a minimum of " to a maximum of " larger than the bolt diameter (per 2001 NDS, section 11.1.2). Contact engineered wood manufacturers for connections that are not through the wide face. OPTIONS: Straps may be rotated 90 where W1 W2 (see illustration). For special, custom, or rough cut lumber sizes, provide dimensions. An optional W2 dimension may be specified with any column size given (note that the W2 dimension on straps rotated 90 is limited by the W1 dimension). Column caps with W1, L, H1, and hole schedules different from the table may be special ordered. Provide a drawing to ensure accuracy. CCOColumn cap only (no straps) may be ordered for field-welding to pipe or other columns. No loads apply. CCO dimensions are the same as CC. CCOBAny two CCOs may be specified for back-to-back welding to create a cross beam connector. Use the table loads; the load is no greater than the lesser element employed. CCC/CCTCross Column Cap/T Column Cap. 7 gauge stirrups may be welded to column cap sides. Uplift loads do not apply to side stirrups. Column cap only (no straps) may be ordered for field-welding to pipe or other columns. No loads apply. Specify CCOC/CCOT. The following criteria apply: 1.The side stirrup maximum allowable download cannot exceed 40% of the download in the table for the unmodified product, and cannot exceed 10,665 lbs. The sum of the loads cannot exceed the table load. The column width in the direction of the beam width must be the same as the beam width: W1. 2.Specify the stirrup height from the top of the cap. The minimum H2 /H3 for the stirrup is 6" (3" for 44s). 3.The L dimension may vary depending on W3 or W4. Ordering examples: A CCC66 with W3 = 5", H2 and H3 = 6" is a CC66 column cap with 5" beams on each side with all beam seats flush. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

INSTALLATIONS FOR WOOD FLOOR SYSTEMS
Steel Strong-Wall panels designed for use on concrete foundations can be used in wood floor systems by simply using additional bearing plates below the panel. These bearing plates distribute the compression load over a greater area of the wood below, reducing the amount of wood crushing that causes load limiting deflection.

STRONG-WALL SHEARWALL
CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.
The Strong-Wall Shearwall can be installed around window and door openings, on garage wing walls, interior walls or any other locations where increased lateral resistance is required. Strong-Wall Shearwalls can reduce the amount of wall space required for shearwalls, allowing for more windows and doors in house designs. Standard models are used for applications where the wall will bear directly on concrete. Simply fasten the bottom of the wall to the embedded bolts with the provided hardware. The top of the wall attaches with pre-installed SDS screws to double top plates or can fasten to various header materials. Drilling or cutting holes in Strong-Wall Shearwalls is not allowed except as shown in the Allowable Hole Chart attached to each wall. Note for Standard and Raised Floor Walls: Walls may also be used in 2x6 wall framing. Install sheathing side at exterior wall line and add furring to interior framing side.

See Hanger tables on pages 74 to 80. See Hanger Options on pages 193 for hanger modifications, which may result in reduced loads. All hangers in this series have double shear nailing. This patented innovation distributes the load through two points on each joist nail for greater strength. It also allows the use of fewer nails, faster installation, and the use of standard nails for all connections. (Do not bend or remove tabs.) MATERIAL: See tables, pages 74 to 80. FINISH: Galvanized. Some products available in stainless steel or ZMAX; see Corrosion Information, page 10-11. INSTALLATION Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Nails must be driven at an angle through the joist or truss into the header to achieve the table loads. Not designed for welded or nailer applications. 16d sinkers (0.148" dia. x 3" long) may be used where 10d commons are specified with no reduction in load. Where 16d commons are specified, 10d commons or 16d sinkers (0.148" dia. x 3" long) may be used at 0.85 of the table load. With 3x carrying members, use 16dx2" nails into the header and 16d commons into the joist with no load reduction. With 2x carrying members, use 10dx1" nails into the header and 10d commons into the joist, reduce the load to 0.64 of the table value. Use stainless steel (SS) nails with SS hangers. OPTIONS: LUS hangers cannot be modified. HUS hangers available with the header flanges turned in for 2-2x (3") and 4x only, with no load reduction. See the HUSC Concealed Flange illustration.

1. 10d commons or 16d sinkers may be used instead of the specified 16d at 0.85 of the table load value. 2. 16d sinkers may be used instead of the specified 10d commons with no load reduction. (16d sinkers are not acceptable for HDG applications.) 3. Uplift loads have been increased 33% and 60% for earthquake or wind loading with no further increase allowed. Divide by 1.33 and 1.60 for normal loading such as in cantilever construction. 4. MIN nailing quantity and load valuesfill all round holes; MAX nailing quantity and load valuesfill all round and triangle holes.
5. DF/SP loads can be used for SCL that has fastener holding capacity of Doug Fir. 6. Truss chord cross-grain tension may limit allowable loads. Refer to Technical Bulletins T-ANSITPISPF, T-ANSITPISP and T-ANSITPIDF for allowable loads that consider ANSI/TPI 1-2002 wood member design criteria (see page 199 for details) . 7. Nails: 16d = 0.162" dia. x 3" long, 10d = 0.148" dia. x 3" long, 10dx1 = 0.148" dia. x 1" long. See page 16-17 for other nail sizes and information. *Hangers do not have an Installed Cost Index.

The BA hanger is a cost effective hanger featuring min/max joist nailing option. Min Nailing featuring Positive Angle Nailing targets moderate load conditions where as the Max Nailing generates capacities for higher loads. The unique two level embossment provides added stiffness to the top flange. The newly improved B hanger offers wide versatility with enhanced load capacities. See tables on pages 83 to 85. See Hanger Options on pages 193 and 197 for hanger modifications, which may result in reduced loads. MATERIAL: See tables, pages 83 to 85. FINISH: BA, JB, LB and BGalvanized; HHBall saddle hangers and all welded sloped and special hangersSimpson gray paint. INSTALLATION: Use specified fasteners. See General Notes and nailer table. LB, BA, B and HHB may be welded to steel headers with weld size to match material thickness (approximate thickness shown). The minimum required weld to the top flanges is " x 2" (" x 1" for LB) fillet weld to each side of each top flange tab for 14 and 12 gauge and " x 2" fillet weld to each side of each top flange tab for 7 gauge. Distribute the weld equally on both top flanges. Welding cancels the top and face nailing requirements. Consult the code for special considerations when welding galvanized steel. The area should be well-ventilated (see page 14 for welding information). Weld on applications produce the maximum allowable down load listed. Uplift loads do not apply to welded applications. Ledgers must be evaluated for each application separately. Check TF dimension, nail length and nail location on ledger. OPTIONS: B and HHB Other widths are available; specify W dimension (the minimum W dimension is 1" for B and 3Zv" for HHB). B dimensions may be increased on some models. See Hanger Options, page 193. BA, JB and LB hangers cannot be modified. Use LBV as an alternative for the JB/LB. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart. Nailer Table This table also applies to sloped-seat hangers.

THA/THAC
This product is preferable to similar connectors because of a) easier installation, b) higher loads, c) lower installed cost, or a combination of these features.
The THA series extra long straps allow full code nailing and can be field-formed to give top flange hanger convenience. Designed for 4x2 floor trusses and 4x beams, the THAR/L422 has a standard skew of 45. Straps can be formed to give top flange hanger convenience. PAN nailing helps eliminate splitting of 4x2 truss bottom chords. MATERIAL: See table. FINISH: Galvanized. Some products available in ZMAX; see Corrosion Information, page 10-11. INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Two different installation methods may be used: Maximum nailingInstall all face nails according to the table. Nails used for the joist attachment must be driven at an angle so that they penetrate through the corner of the joist into the header.With single 2x carrying members, use 10dx1" nails into the carrying member, and 10d or 16d commons into the carried member, and use 0.81 of the table value for 18 gauge, and 0.68 of the table value for 16 gauge. Minimum nailingFor the THA29, the minimum nailing schedule requires the use of joist double shear nailing as detailed above, and that the strap be field-formed over the header a minimum of 2". A minimum of four top and four face nails must be used. For all models except the THA29, the minimum nailing schedule may be followed where double shear nailing is not possible, provided the strap is field-formed over the top of the header a minimum of 1" for the THA213 and THA413, and 2" for all others, and a minimum of four top and two face nails are used. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart. Double Shear Nailing Side View Do not bend tab unless otherwise noted

No Web Stiffener Installed Hanger side flange supports joist top flange. Flush Framing Top flange configuration and thickness of top flange need to be considered for flush frame conditions. Hanger Over-Spread If the hanger is over-spread, it can raise the I-joist above the header and may cause uneven surfaces and squeaky floors.
Hanger Not Plumb A hanger kicked-out from the header can cause uneven surfaces and squeaky floors.
Rotation Resistance If non-skewed hanger side flange is less than 60% of joist depth, attach staggered A34 framing anchors above the hanger. No Web Stiffener Results in Rotation Hanger side flange is below the joist top flange. No web stiffener results in rotation, unless restrained by other means.

SLOPED JOISTS For sloped joists up to :12 there is no reduction. For slopes greater than :12 see individual product pages or refer to technical bulletin T-SLOPEJST (see page 199 for details) . MULTIPLE JOISTS Multiple joists should be adequately connected together to act as one unit. FASTENERS Use the correct nails. Wood may split if the nails are too large. Hanger nails into flanges should not exceed 10d common (0.148 dia.), no longer than 1". Nails into web stiffeners should not exceed 16d commons (0.162 dia.). ECCENTRICALLY-LOADED I-JOISTS Supporting a top flange hanger may require bottom flange restraining straps, blocking or directly-applied ceiling systems to prevent rotation at the hanger location.
NAIL PATTERN
Attach backer block with 10-10d nails. Solid sawn backer blocks may split if a row of closelyspaced nails goes along the wood grain. For I-joist to I-joist connections, the nails should extend through backer block and web. Refer to manufacturers literature for other attachment details.
When supporting one I-joist from another, install backer blocks to the carrying I-joist with 10-10d nails. Check with the joist manufacturer to see if backer blocks are required on both sides. Top Flange Hanger

The improved IUS is now fully compatible with shallow flange I-joists! I-joists with flange thicknesses between 1" and 1" achieve the full allowable table loads including uplift values and joist nails are not required! The IUS is a hybrid hanger that incorporates the advantages of the face mount and top mount hanger. Installation is fast with the Strong-Grip seat, easy-to-reach face nails and self-jigging locator tabs. The MIU series hangers are designed for commercial and high load I-joist applications without requiring web stiffeners. The MIU features Positive Angle The Strong-Grip seat Nailing (PAN), which minimizes splitting of the flanges while permitting time-saving secures I-joists in position nailing from a better angle. without joist nails The IUT features a bend-tab which nails into the I-joists bottom flange IUS STARBURST.EPS when web stiffeners are not used, or directly into the web stiffener.

Concealed Flanges
HUCQ
See Hanger tables on pages 96 to 100. See Hanger Options on page 193 for hanger modifications, which may result in reduced loads. These hangers are designed for applications where higher loads are needed (also see HUC and HUCQ) . All hangers in this series have double shear nailing. This patented innovation distributes the load through two points on each joist nail for greater strength. It also allows the use of fewer nails, faster installation, and the use of common nails for all connections. (Do not bend or remove tabs) MATERIAL: See tables, pages 96 to 100. FINISH: Galvanized. Some products available in stainless steel or ZMAX; see Corrosion Information, page 10-11. INSTALLATION Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Do not use double shear hangers with I-joists. Nails must be driven at an angle through the joist or truss into the header to achieve the table loads. Not designed for welded or nailer applications. 16d sinkers (0.148" dia. x 3" long) may be used where 10d commons are specified with no reduction in load. Where 16d commons are specified, 10d commons or 16d sinkers (0.148" dia. x 3" long) may be used at 0.85 of the table load. With 3x carrying members, use 16dx2" (Simpson N16) nails into the header and 16d commons into the joist with no load reduction. With 2x carrying members, use 10dx1" nails into the header and 10d commons into the joist, and reduce the load to 0.64 of the table value. OPTIONS: HUS hangers available with the header flanges turned in for 3" wide joist only, with no load reduction. See HUSC Concealed Flange illustration. Concealed flanges are not available for HGUS, HUS1.81/10 and HHUS. See Hanger Options, page 193, for sloped and/or skewed HHUS and HGUS models. Other sizes available; contact Simpson for details.

THAI
Designed for I-joists, the THAI has extra long straps and can be field-formed to give height adjustability and top flange hanger convenience. Positive angle nailing helps eliminate splitting of the I-joists bottom flange. MATERIAL: THAI-214 gauge; all others18 gauge. FINISH: Galvanized INSTALLATION: Factory-order the THAI-2 for hanger width needed. See table for allowable widths. Use all specified fasteners. Verify that the header can take the fasteners specified in the table. Web stiffeners are required for all I-joists used with these hangers. When a total of 20 face nails are used in THAI straps, or 30 face nails are used in THAI-2 straps, the maximum load-carrying capacity is achieved. Reduce load given by allowable nail shear capacity for each nail less than maximum. A minimum nailing configuration is shown for top nailing installations. The strap must be field-formed over the top of the header by a minimum of 2". CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

A dedicated range of Top Flange I-joist hangers meeting the unique needs of I-joists while offering superior performance and ease of installation.
ITS NEW! The innovative ITS sets a new standard for engineered wood top flange hangers. The ITS installs faster and uses fewer nails than any other EWP top flange hanger. The new Strong-Grip seat and Funnel Flange features allow standard joist installation without requiring joist nails resulting in the lowest installed cost. The Strong-Grip seat firmly secures I-joists with flange thicknesses from 1Z\," to 1Z\x". The ITS design maintains superior allowable download capacities equal to or greater than the ITT for Douglas Fir and all SCL headers ITT The ITTs special bend-tabs constrains the I-joist, helping to reduce squeaks resulting from joist movement. I-joist flange thickness for bend-tab application is 1" to 1". MIT/HIT - Patented Positive Angle Nailing (PAN) PAN is specifically designed for I-joists when used with the MIT or HIT. With PAN, the nail hole material is not removed, but is formed to channel and confine the path of the nail at approximately 45. PAN minimizes splitting of the flanges while permitting time-saving nailing from a better angle. See Top Flange tables on pages 108 to 117. Refer to Joist Manufacturers literature or appropriate Simpson Connector Selection Guide for actual joist sizes. MATERIAL: ITS, ITT18 gauge; MIT, HIT16 gauge FINISH: Galvanized INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. Verify that the header can take the required fasteners specified in the table. See product specific installation drawings pages 102-103. ITSno joist nailing required for standard I-joist installation without web stiffeners. When supporting I-joists with web stiffeners or rectangular SCL member 2-10dx1Z\x" must be installed into optional triangle joist nail holes. ITS and ITToptional triangle nail holes may be used for additional load. See allowable load tables. Refer to technical bulletin T-OPTUPLIFTCWP for additional ITT options (see page 199 for details). ITTbend tabs may be installed unbent into web stiffeners. MIToptional triangle nail holes may be used for increased uplift capacity. See Optional Nailing For Increased Uplift table. HITclosed PAN nail holes may be used for increased uplift capacity. See Optional Nailing For Increased Uplift table. ALLOWABLE LOADS: The ITS, ITT, MIT and HIT hangers have locations for optional nails if additional uplift is needed. Optional uplift nailing requires the addition of properly-secured web stiffeners. See the load tables for minimum required fasteners and allowable uplift loads. OPTIONS: Because these hangers are fully die-formed, they cannot be modified. However these models will normally accommodate a skew of up to 5. For sloped joists up to :12 there is no reduction, between :12 and up to :12, tests show a 10% reduction in ultimate hanger strength. Local crushing of the bottom flange or excessive deflection may be limiting; check with joist manufacturer for specific limitations on bearing of this type.

TOP FLANGE HANGERS LBV/BA/B/HB I-Joist & Structural Composite Lumber Hangers
This product is preferable to similar connectors because of a) easier installation, b) higher loads, c) lower installed cost, or a combination of these features.
The BA hanger is a cost effective hanger targeted at high capacity I-joists and common Structural Composite Lumber applications. A min/max joist nail option gives dual use of this hanger. Minimum values featuring Positive Angle Nailing are targeted at I-joist without web stiffeners requirement and the maximum nailing generates higher loads to support structural composite lumber. The unique two level embossment provides added stiffness to the top flange. The newly improved LBV, B and HB hangers offer wide versatility for I-joists and structural composite lumber. The enhanced load capacity widens the range of applications for these hangers. The LBVstill features Positive Angle Nailing and does not require the use of web stiffeners for standard non modified I-joist installations. See Top Flange tables on pages 108 to 117. See Hanger Options on page 193 for hanger modifications, which may result in reduced loads. MATERIAL: See tables, pages 108 to 117. FINISH: LBV, B, BA and HBGalvanized; all saddle hangers and all welded sloped and special hangersSimpson gray paint. LBV, B, BA and HB may be ordered hot-dip galvanized; specify HDG. INSTALLATION: Use specified fasteners. See General Notes and nailer table. LBV, B, BA and HB may be used for weld-on applications. Weld size to match material thickness (approximate thickness shown). The minimum required weld to the top flanges is " x 2" fillet weld to each side of each top flange tab for 14 and 12 gauge and " x 2" fillet weld to each side of each top flange tab for 7 gauge and 10 gauge. Distribute the weld equally on both top flanges. Welding cancels the top and face nailing requirements. Consult the code for special considerations when welding galvanized steel. The area should be well-ventilated, see page 14 for weld information. Weld on applications produce the maximum allowable down load listed. Uplift loads do not apply to welded applications. LBV hangers do not require the use of web stiffeners for non-sloped or non-skewed applications. B and HB hangers require the use of web stiffeners. BA MIN nailing does not require web stiffeners. BA MAX nailing requires the use of web stiffeners. Ledgers must be evaluated for each application separately. Check TF dimension, nail length and nail location on ledger. OPTIONS: LBV, B and HB Other widths are available; specify W dimension (the minimum W dimension is 1"). The finish on special B hangers will depend on the manufacturing process used.

1. 16d sinkers (9 ga x 3") may be used where 10d commons are called out with no load reduction. 2. Uplift loads are based on DF/SP lumber and have been increased 33% and 60% for wind or earthquake loading with no further increase allowed. Divide (133) Load by 1.33 for normal loading such as in cantilever construction. For SPF use 0.86 x DF/SP uplift load. 3. SCL, structural composite lumber, is laminated veneer lumber, Parallam PSL and TimberStrand LSL.
4. Applies to LVL headers made primarily from Douglas Fir or Southern Pine. For LVL made primarily from Spruce Pine Fir or similar less dense veneers, use the values found in the SPF column. 5. I-joist header with SPF flanges will support 2030 lbs. 6. WP quantity of nail holes in top flange varies. 7. Nails: 16d and 16d DPLX = 0.162" dia. x 3" long, 10d = 0.148" dia. x 3" long, 10dx1 = 0.148" dia. x 1" long. See page 16-17 for other nail sizes and information. 8. Mid-wall installation requires minimum of one grouted course above and below the hanger.

The SUR/L1.81, 2.56 and New HSUR/L4.12, 4.75 and 5.12 are improved 45 skewed hangers designed specifically to ease the installation of single and double I-joists. In addition to Positive Angle Nailing these hangers encapsulate the top flange of the I-joist, so no web stiffeners are required for standard installation. The full range of 45 skewed hangers feature obround nail holes on the acute side allowing nails to be easily installed parallel to the header and joist. Installation is further simplified with no required bevel cuts. MATERIAL: See table. FINISH: Galvanized. Some products available in ZMAX; see Corrosion Information, page 10-11. INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Illustrations show left and right skews SUR/L (SUR = skewed right; SUL = skewed left). The joist end may be square cut or bevel cut. Web stiffeners are required for I-joist applications except for the SUR/L1.81, 2.56, HSUR/L4.12, 4.75 and 5.12. 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 (see Footnote on opposite page). For installations to masonry or concrete, see page 152. OPTIONS: These hangers will accommodate a 40 to 50 skew. Available with the A2 flange turned in on 2-2x and 4x models only (see illustration). For example, specify HSURC410, HSULC410, SURC210-2, or SULC210-2. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

Purlin Anchors
Wood-to-concrete and -concrete block connectors that satisfy code requirements. The PAs dual embedment line allows installation in concrete or concrete block. MATERIAL: MPAI14 ga; PAI12 ga. FINISH: Galvanized. Some products available HDG or ZMAX. INSTALLATION: Minimum concrete strength is 2000 psi. Use all specified fasteners; some models have extra fastener holes. See General Notes. Wood splitting may occur when anchor is nailed to wood less than 3" wide. To reduce splitting for widths less than 3", fill every other nail hole with 10dx1" nails. Reduce the allowable load based on the size and quantity of fasteners used. (See nail table on page 16-17.) PAI is designed for wood I-joists. Nail spacing is for 10dx1" nails 3" on center, to minimize the chance of wood splitting. Maximum ledger width for full loads is 1". EDGE DISTANCEMinimum concrete edge distance is 5". Minimum concrete block left-to-right edge distance is 20". CONCRETE BLOCK WALLSThe masonry embedment line on PAI, MPAI allows for 4" of grout embedment in a standard 8" concrete masonry unit. The minimum wall specifications are: one #4 vertical rebar, 32" long, at 32" o.c.; two courses of block above and below the anchor; a horizontal bond beam with two #4 rebars, 40" long, a maximum of two courses above or below the anchor; all cells grouted with 2000 psi " aggregate grout. Grout shall be vibrated per the 1997 UBC section 2104.6.2. OPTIONS: See LTT and HTT Tension Ties. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

See table on page 127. See Hanger Options on page 193 for hanger modifications, which may result in reduced loads. This series of beam and purlin hangers may be used for wood to wood or wood to steel applications. Precision forming provides dimensional accuracy and helps ensure proper bearing area and connection. MATERIAL: See table on page 127. FINISH: HHB, GB, HGB, all saddle hangers and all welded sloped and special hangers Simpson gray paint. HHB may be ordered hot-dip galvanized; specify HDG. INSTALLATION: Use specified fasteners. See General Notes. HHB, GB and HGB may be used for weld-on applications. The minimum required weld to the top flanges is " x 2" fillet weld to each side of each top flange tab for 14 and 12 gauge and " x 2" fillet weld to each side of each top flange tab for 7 gauge. Distribute the weld equally on both top flanges. Welding cancels the top and face nailing requirements. Consult the code for special considerations when welding galvanized steel. The area should be well-ventilated. See page 14 for weld information. Weld on applications produce the maximum allowable load listed. Uplift loads do not apply to welded applications. Ledgers must be evaluated for each application separately. Check TF dimension, nail length and nail location on ledger. OPTIONS: HHBother widths are available; specify W dimension (the minimum W dimension is 2"). Saddle hangers are made to order; add D to model (e.g. HHBD3); specify S (for saddle) dimension. They may be used for most conditions except at end wall locations, and are preferred for nailer applications. The finish on special B hangers will depend on the manufacturing process used. Check with your Simpson representative for details. Hot-dipped galvanized available: specify HDG. B dimensions may be increased on some models. See Hanger Options, page 193.
HHB, GB and HGB are acceptable for weld-on applications. See Installation Information.

This product is preferable to similar connectors because of a) easier installation, b) higher loads, c) lower installed cost, or a combination of these features.
The THA series extra long straps allow full nailing and can be field-formed to give top flange hanger convenience. MATERIAL: See table. FINISH: Galvanized. Some products available in ZMAX; see Corrosion Information, page 10-11. INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Two different installation methods may be used: Maximum nailingInstall all face nails according to the table. Nails used for the joist attachment must be driven at an angle so that they penetrate through the corner of the joist into the header. With single 2x carrying members, use 10dx1" nails into the carrying member, and 10d or 16d commons into the carried member, and use 0.81 of the table value for 18 gauge, and 0.68 of the table value for 16 gauge. Minimum nailingFor the THA29, the minimum nailing schedule requires the use of joist double shear nailing as detailed above, and that the strap be field-formed over the header a minimum of 2". A minimum of four top and four face nails must be used. For all models except the THA29, the minimum nailing schedule may be followed where double shear nailing is not possible, provided the strap is field-formed over the top of the header a minimum of 1" for the THA213 and THA413, and 2" for all others, and a minimum of four top and two face nails are used. OPTIONS: THA hangers available with the header flanges turned in for 3" (except THA413) and larger, with no load reduction order THAC hanger. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

LUS/MUS/HUS/HHUS/HGUS/HUSC
This product is preferable to similar connectors because of a) easier installation, b) higher loads, c) lower installed cost, or a combination of these features.
The MUS offers increased load capacity and bearing compared to LUS connectors for medium load truss applications. All hangers in this series have double shear nailing. This patented innovation distributes the load through two points on each joist nail for greater strength. It also allows the use of fewer nails, faster installation, and the use of common nails for all connections. (Do not bend or remove tabs) MATERIAL: See tables below and on page 131. FINISH: Galvanized. Some products available in stainless steel or ZMAX; see Corrosion Information, page 10-11. INSTALLATION Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Nails must be driven at an angle through the joist or truss into the header to achieve the table loads. Not designed for welded or nailer applications. 16d sinkers (0.148" dia. x 3" long) may be used where 10d commons are specified with no reduction in load. Where 16d commons are specified, 10d commons or 16d sinkers (0.148" dia. x 3" long) may be used at 0.85 of the table load. With 3x carrying members, use 16dx2" nails into the header and 16d commons into the joist with no load reduction. With single 2x carrying members, use 10dx1" nails into the header and 10d commons into the joist, and reduce the load to 0.64 of the table value. OPTIONS: LUS and MUS hangers cannot be modified. HUS hangers available with the header flanges turned in for 2-2x (3") and 4x only, with no load reduction. See HUSC Concealed Flange illustration. Concealed flanges are not available for HGUS and HHUS. See Hanger Options, page 193, for sloped and/or skewed HHUS models. Other sizes available; consult your Simpson representative. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

HTU
The HTU face mount truss hangers have nail patterns designed specifically for shallow heel heights, so that full allowable loads (with minimum nailing) apply to heel heights as low as 3". Minimum and maximum nailing options provide solutions for varying heel heights and end conditions. Alternate allowable loads are provided for gaps between the end of the truss and the carrying member greater than " to allow for greater construction tolerances (maximum gap for standard allowable loads is " per ASTM D-1761). MATERIAL: 16 gauge FINISH: Galvanized INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Can be installed filling round holes only, or filling round and triangle holes for maximum values. For single 2x carrying members, use N10 (10dx1") nails into the header and reduce the allowable download to 0.70 of the table value. The allowable uplift is 100% of the table load. See alternate installation for applications using the HTU28 or HTU210 on a 2x6 carrying member for additional uplift capacity. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

1. The maximum hanger gap is measured between the joist (or truss) end and the carrying member. 2. Minimum heel heights required for full table loads are based on a minimum 2:12 pitch. 3. Allowable load calculations are based on the 2001 NDS. 4. Uplift has been increased 33% and 60% for earthquake or wind loading with no further increase allowed; reduce where other loads govern. 5. Wind (133) is a download rating. 6. For hanger gaps between " and " use the Alternate Allowable Loads.
7. Truss chord cross-grain tension may limit allowable loads. Refer to Technical Bulletins T-ANSITPISPF, T-ANSITPISP and T-ANSITPIDF for allowable loads that consider ANSI/TPI 1-2002 wood member design criteria (see page 199 for details) . 8.

W/WP/WM
This series is designed to hang trusses in wood, masonry and steel construction. MATERIAL: W, WM12 gauge top flange and stirrup, WP7 gauge top flange and 12 gauge stirrup. FINISH: Simpson gray paint; hot-dipped galvanized available: specify HDG. ALLOWABLE LOADS: For hanger heights exceeding the joist height, the allowable load is 0.50 of the table load. INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. Hangers may be welded to steel headers with " for W, and " for WP, by 1" fillet welds located at each end of the top flange. Weld-on applications produce maximum allowable load listed. Uplift loads do not apply to this application. Hangers can support multi-ply carried members; the individual members must be secured together to work as a single unit before installation into the hanger. For 4x2 trusses specify alternate nail pattern which relocates the nails to the bottom of the joist. OPTIONS: See Hanger Options, page 193. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

1. Allowable loads have been increased 33% and 60% for earthquake or wind loading with no further increase allowed; reduce where other loads govern. 2. Hip loads are for each hip. 3. Wind (133) is a download rating. 4. Other hip/jack load distributions are allowed if the sum of all three carried members does not exceed the total load and the hip members are equally loaded.
5. Combine hip and jack loads for total capacity. For terminal hips divide the total allowable load by 2 to determine the allowable load for each hip. 6. Truss chord cross-grain tension may limit allowable loads. Refer to technical bulletins T-ANSITPISPF, T-ANSITPISP and T-ANSITPIDF for allowable loads that consider ANSI/TPI 1-2002 wood member design criteria (see page 199 for details) . 7.

MSCPT
The MSCPT is a welded hanger designed to carry up to three trusses intersecting at one point into a double ply girder truss. The top flange is notched at the center to accommodate vertical and diagonal web members in the girder truss. MATERIAL: Top flange3 gauge; stirrup11 gauge (MSCPT2, MSCPT2N), 7 gauge (MSCPT2-2, MSCPT2-2N). FINISH: Simpson gray paint INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. The total load must be evenly distributed about the centerline to avoid eccentric loading. All multiple members must be fastened together to act as a single unit. Minimum vertical carrying member sizes are 2x6 for MSCPT2 and MSCPT2N, and 2x8 for MSCPT2-2 and MSCPT2-2N. Minimum carrying member bottom chord is 2x6. OPTIONS: H1 and H2 may be increased for alignment with larger bottom chords. Hip stirrups can be skewed from 25 to 45. The W1 and W2 of the MSCPT2 may be increased up to 3", provided the stirrups configuration remains symmetrical. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

THGQ/THGQH
A lower cost alternative to bolted hangers, the THGQ and THGQH hangers for multi-ply girder trusses use SDS screws to provide high load capacities and easier installation compared to bolts. Both models offer minimum and optional maximum fastener quantities to accommodate varying design needs. Allowable loads for various girder web member sizes provide additional installation options. MATERIAL: THGQ7 gauge, THGQH3 gauge FINISH: THGQGalvanized, THGQHSimpson gray paint INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Can be installed filling round holes only, or filling round and triangle holes for maximum values. SDS screws supplied for all round and triangle holes. Installation may not require use of all SDS screws. All multiple members must be fastened together to act as a single unit. Girders must be adequately laterally braced to prevent excessive displacement due to secondary torsional stresses (Ref ANSI/TPI 1-2002 Section 7.4.3.5). Not recommended for installation into LSL.

ALTERNATE INSTALLATIONS
Block(s) should be of similar size/grade as the truss member to which it is attached. Blocking should be designed to act as one unit with the truss members. Block(s) should be of sufficient size to accept all carried/carrying member nails, and develop full seat bearing as specified in Simpson Strong-Tie publications. Truss Designer is to confirm blocking size/grade, fasteners required and application. Fasteners used to attach the additional blocking should be independent of the truss hanger fasteners. Example shown: THGBH4 installed
Example shown: HGUS210-2 installed on a 2x6 bottom chord (other applications similar)

Connection Design to Achieve Specified Nailing of a Face Mount Hanger at a Panel Point.
Nails located in joints formed by the intersection of wood members have no load resistance. The hanger allowable load value shall be reduced by the nail shear value for each header nail less than the specified quantity. Connection shall be approved by the Truss Designer.
Use of Wood Filler Blocking for Carried Member Width Less than Hanger Width. (Block designed by Designer or Truss Designer)
For more The use of Strong-Drive screws insures that loads are adequately supported information, by both trusses. (Testing has shown that most currently available light gauge refer to steel connectors do not uniformly distribute applied loads to both trusses.) technical In addition differential deflection between the two trusses is reduced. bulletin 1. Screw spacing shall not exceed 24" o.c. and shall not be less than 4" o.c. T-SCREWAPPS A minimum end distance of 3" shall be provided at all truss members. (see page 199 2. Gap between the trusses shall not exceed ,". for details). 3. Floor sheathing shall be screwed (or nailed) to each truss top chord. (Fastener spacing per the applicable Code requirements, or 12" o.c. max.) 4. Strong-Drive screws shall be installed with the screw heads in the loaded truss. If the screws are installed in the wrong truss face, install additional screws in the correct face with a maximum spacing of 2x the required spacing, not to exceed 24" o.c. Offset the additional screws from the existing screws to prevent splitting. 5. Strong-Drive screws are permitted to be installed through metal truss plates as approved by the Truss Designer, provided the requirements of ANSI/TPI 1-2002 Section 8.10 are met (pre-drilling required). 6. The Truss Designer shall ensure that each truss is designed for the appropriate load(s) considering the location of the applied load(s) and the location of the Strong-Drive screws. 7. The Truss Designer shall design all trusses and the truss system to meet all Code and ANSI-TPI requirements. 8. Individual screw locations may be adjusted up to 3" to avoid conflicts with other hardware or to avoid lumber defects. 9. Strong-Drive screws shall not be installed in areas where lumber wane exceeds ". 10. All concentrated loads were assumed to be applied at truss panel points.

Resists tension and compression loads equal to or greater than BCSI 1-03 prescriptive requirements. Does not require any field modification prior to installation. Can be used as Permanent Lateral Bracing and as Temporary Erection Bracing. Has a low profile that can be sheathed over when used as erection bracing, eliminating the need to remove bracing prior to sheathing. The TSB2 allowable loads are working loads with a reduction factor of 3 applied. The Designer or Engineer of Record does not have to apply reduction factors. MATERIAL: 22 gauge FINISH: Galvanized INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners; see General Notes. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

TSF
Truss Spacer
The TSF is a fast and accurate method for spacing trusses that eliminates layout marking of top plates and can be left in place under the sheathing. Accuracy is improved, spacing errors are minimized, and it is easy to use. MATERIAL: 24 gauge FINISH: Galvanized INSTALLATION: See Installation Sequence below. TSF Truss Spacers do not provide bracing of any kind and are not structural members. The TSF is for spacing only. Refer to instructions from architect, engineer, truss manufacturer or other for bracing and installation information. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

TBE
The TBE transfers load from the truss or girder to plates for bearing-limited conditions, and provides exceptional uplift capacity. Replaces nail-on scabs that provide lower load transfer, or in some cases, an additional ply when needed for bearing. One size works with any number of girder plys. The table lists allowable loads for TBE4 used on 2x4 and TBE6 used on 2x6 top plates. The table gives the different loads calculated for TBE with and without wood bearing. See Fastener Schedule below and page 147 for Alternate Installation. MATERIAL: 18 gauge FINISH: Galvanized. See Corrosion Information, page 10-11. INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. TBE must be installed in pairs. Top plate size is 2x4 for TBE4, 2x6 for TBE6. Use alternate installation for TBE4 and TBE6 on larger plates or pre-sheathed walls. See page 147. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

META/HETA/HHETA/HETAL/TSS
The embedded truss anchor series provides an engineered method to properly attach roof trusses to concrete and masonry walls. The products are designed with staggered nail patterns for greater uplift resistance. Information regarding the use of two anchors on single- and multi-ply trusses is included. The TSS, a companion product of the META, provides a moisture barrier between the concrete and truss. The preassembled unit is riveted with no height adjustment. MATERIAL: HHETA14 gauge; HETA16 gauge; HETALstrap 16 gauge, truss seat 18 gauge; META18 gauge; TSS22 gauge. FINISH: Galvanized. Some products available in ZMAX; see Corrosion Information, page 10-11. INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. The META, HETA and HHETA are embedded 4" into a concrete beam or grouted block wall; HETAL is embedded 5". Do not drive nails through the truss plate on the opposite side of the truss, which could force the plate off the truss. The TSS moisture barrier may be preattached to the truss using 6d commons. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

MGT/HGTGirder Tiedowns
The MGT and HGT series are girder tie-downs for moderate to high load applications that are typically installed prior to roof sheathing. The MGT wraps over the heel and is anchored on one side of the truss. The HGT straddles the heel and anchors on both sides of the truss. The HGT is field adjustable, making it suitable for trusses with top chord slopes ranging from 3:12 to 8:12. The HGT is available in sizes for 2, 3 and 4-ply widths. MATERIAL: MGT12 ga; HGT7 ga. FINISH: MGT Galvanized; HGTSimpson gray paint INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. When the HGT-3 is used with a 2-ply girder or beam, shimming is required and must be fastened to act as one unit. Attach to grouted concrete block with a minimum one #5 rebar horizontal in the top lintel block. Minimum f c = 2500 psi maximum aggregate ". See page 172 for wood applications.

FGTR/LGT2/LGT3-SDS2.5/VGT
The VGT, LGT and FGTR products are girder tie-downs for moderate to high load applications that can be installed before or after roof sheathing. The NEW Variable Girder Tiedown (VGT) is a higher capacity alternative to the LGT and MGT for girder trusses. It attaches with SDS screws to the side of the truss, allowing it to be used in new or retrofit applications. This versatile part is suitable for trusses with 2x4 or larger top chords and features a predeflected crescent washer that allows it to accommodate top chord pitches between 3:12 and 8:12. The VGT is also available with one flange concealed for attachment to trusses with no tail. LGT connectors are girder truss tiedowns. Low profile connection to wall ensures easy installation of drywall. Simple to install and can be installed on the inside or outside of wall. They provide additional bearing enhancement for heavy download applications. The Face Mount Girder Tie-Down (FGTR) is a non-pitch specific girder tiedown suitable for new construction or retrofit applications. The FGTR installs on concrete block or concrete walls and can be used in pairs for higher capacity. MATERIAL: VGT7 gauge; LGT14 gauge; FGTRStraps: 7 gauge, Plate: 3 gauge FINISH: VGT, LGTGalvanized; FGTRPowder Coated INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Minimum grout or concrete strength = 2500 psi. To achieve the loads listed in the table below, the product shall be attached to a grouted and reinforced block wall or a reinforced concrete wall designed by others to transfer the high concentrated uplift loads to the foundation. VGT/FGTR: Screw holes are configured to allow for double installation on a two-ply (minimum) truss. The product can be installed in a single application or in pairs to achieve a higher uplift capacity. Can be installed on roof pitches up to 8:12 or on a bottom chord designed to transfer the loads. FGTR Only 2 of the 4 holes provided on each strap are required to be filled to achieve the catalog loads. The first Titen HD screw anchor "x5" (THD) shall be installed a minimum of 4" from the top of the wall.Fasteners shall not be installed in adjacent holes. VGTWhen installed on trusses with no overhangs, specify VGTR/L. VGTInstall washer component (provided) so that top of washer is horizontal as well as parallel with top of wall top plate.

CS/CMST
Coiled Straps
CMSTC provides nail slots for easy installation and coined edges for safe handling; it can be cut to length. CS are continuous utility straps which can be cut to length on the job site. Packaged in lightweight (about 40 pounds) cartons. FINISH: Galvanized. Some products available in ZMAX; see Corrosion Information, page 10-11. INSTALLATION: Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes. Wood shrinkage after strap installation across horizontal wood members may cause strap to buckle outward. Refer to the applicable code for minimum nail penetration and minimum wood edge and end distances. The table shows the maximum allowable loads and the nails required to obtain them. Fewer nails may be used; reduce the allowable load as shown in footnote #3. CMST onlyUse every other round hole if the wood tends to split. Use round and triangle holes for comparable MST loads, providing wood does not tend to split. For lap slice and alternate nailing information, refer to technical bulletin T-CMST (see page 199 for details) . CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

ICFVL
The ICFVL Ledger Connector System is engineered to solve the challenges of mounting wood or steel ledgers to insulated concrete form (ICF) walls. The ICFVL is designed to provide both vertical and lateral, in-plane performance. There are many benefits over traditional anchor bolting, including better on center spacing in most cases, faster installation and no protrusions. The embedded legs of the ICFVL are embossed for additional stiffness and the hole allows for concrete to flow through and around the connector. The exposed flange on the face of the ICF provides a structural surface for mounting either a wood or steel ledger. MATERIAL: ICFVL14 gauge; ICFVL-CW and ICFVL-W16 gauge FINISH: Galvanized INSTALLATION: ICFVL in ICF WARNING: Snap a chalk line for the bottom of the ledger. Industry studies show Mark required on center spacing. that hardened Use ICFVL to mark kerfs locations. fasteners can experience Cut kerfs as marked. performance problems in wet environments. Insert ICFVL flush to the face of the ICF. Accordingly, use this Pour concrete. product in dry Wood Ledger Attachment ICFVL-W or -CW environments only. Slip appropriate ledger connector underneath the ledger. Install the eight ICF-D3 screws partially into the ledger. Position the ledger level to the chalk line and drive the screws through the wood and into the ICFVL. Steel Ledger Attachment Position the ledger level to the chalk line and against the ICFVL. Attach with four -14x", #3 drill point screws (not provided). All screws should be located at least " from the edge of the ICFVL. Space screws evenly. CODES: See page 12 for Code Listing Key Chart.

HANGER OPTIONS
W/WNP/WP/HW
See Hanger Options General Notes. INSTALLATION: Some models are available in Type A (Bevel Cut) and Type B (Butt Cut) styles; all models are available in Type B style. Check factory when ordering. Bevel-cut the joist for skewed Type A hangers (see illustration). Butt-cut the joist for Type B hangers. Hangers with a skew greater than 15 may have all the joist nails on the outside angle. Skewed HWs have face nails and require a minimum header depth of 3". HANGER HEIGHT For hanger heights exceeding the joist height by more than ", the allowable load is 0.50 of the table load. SLOPED AND/OR SKEWED SEAT Non-skewed hangers can carry the design load when the seat slope is within :12 of the joist slope. Designer must check that wood bearing is not limiting. W/WNP/WP/HW series may be skewed to a maximum of 84 and/or sloped to a maximum of 45. For slope only, skew only, or slope and skew combinations, the allowable load is 100% of the table load. UPLIFT LOADS (limited options are available for uplift hangers check the Hanger Options Matrix) Hangers can be sloped to 45 and/or skewed 45 at 100% of the uplift load. Skew option is only on hangers with W 3 or less. For skews greater than 45 there is no uplift load. Specify the slope up or down in degrees from the horizontal plane and/or the skew right or left in degrees from the perpendicular vertical plane. Specify whether low side, high side or center of joist will be flush with the top of the header (see illustration). Uplift loads are not available for open/closed TF, TF sloped, and offset options. SLOPED TOP FLANGE A top flange may be ordered sloped down left or down right to 35 with or without a sloped and/or skewed seat (see illustration). Reduce allowable table loads using straight-line interpolation (see open/closed top flange). OFFSET TOP FLANGE The top flange may be offset left or right for placement at the end of a header (see illustration). The allowable load is 0.50 of the table load. For skewed and offset top flange hangers, the maximum allowable load is 0.50 of the table load or 2000 lbs., whichever is lower. OPEN/CLOSED TOP FLANGE The top flange may be opened more or closed less than the standard 90 (see illustration) to a maximum of 30, except the HW which cannot be closed. W and WI hangers must use 10dx1Z\x" nails for closed application. Reduce allowable loads using straight-line interpolation. Example: For a top flange open 30, reduce load to [(90-30)/90] x table load. SADDLE HANGER To order, add D to model and specify S dimension (see illustration). RIDGE HANGER (not available for uplift models) Top flange may be sloped to a maximum of 35 to accommodate a ridge (see illustration). Specify angle of the slope. Reduce allowable load using straight-line interpolation. See Open/Closed example.

HU is available with one flange concealed when the W dimension is less than 2" at 100% of the table load. For skewed only HUC hangers, the flange on the acute side can be concealed at 100% of the table load. See table for skew limitations. For sloped only hangers, flanges can be concealed at 100% of the table load. For sloped and skewed hangers, the flange on the acute side can be concealed at 0.80 of the table load. Consult the factory for skew limitations. When nailing into the carrying members end grain, the allowable load is 0.67 of the table load. For welding see technical bulletin T-HUHUC-W (see page 199 for details).
HUTF
See Hanger Options General Notes. SLOPED AND/OR SKEWED SEAT HUTF can be skewed to a maximum of 45 or sloped to a maximum of 45. HUTF can be skewed and sloped down only, provided W 2". Hangers with a skew greater than 15 may have all the joist nailing on the outside angle. No skew with slope up options available. For the skewed-only HU34TF, HU24-2TF and HU44TF, the allowable loads are 0.50 of the table load. All other models have a maximum allowable load of 0.60 of the table loads. For skews greater than 15, uplift loads are 0.75 of the table loads. For sloped and skewed hangers, the allowable loads are 0.70 of the table loads. For sloped down only hangers, allowable load is 0.78 of the table load. CONCEALED FLANGE HUTF is available with one A flange concealed at 0.85 of the catalog table load. HUTF is also available with both flanges concealed provided the W dimension is 2" or greater, at 0.85 of the table load. Specify HUCTF for both flanges concealed. No skew options available.

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: Modified hangers, due to their numerous variations, are not in code reports. 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.

SLOPED AND/OR SKEWED SEAT GLT/GLTV/HGLT/HGLTV and GLS/HGLS series may be skewed to a maximum of 50 or sloped to a maximum of 45. For skews greater than 15, multiply the table uplift load by 0.50. For sloped only, the maximum allowable load is 6500 lbs. for the GLT/GLS/GLTV, 9165 lbs. for the HGLT/HGLS/HGLTV. For skewed only, the maximum allowable load is 6550 lbs. for the GLT/GLS/GLTV, 7,980 lbs. for the HGLT/HGLS/HGLTV. The deflection at full loading may reach ". Sloped and skewed GLT/GLS/GLTV configurations have a maximum allowable load of 5500 lbs. Sloped and skewed combinations are not allowed for the HGLT/HGLS/HGLTV. Sloped and/or skewed seat hangers may not be installed in non-backed nailer/header installations. SLOPED TOP FLANGE A top flange may be sloped down left or down right to 30 with or without a sloped and/or skewed seat (see illustration). Reduce allowable table loads using straight-line interpolation (see page 195). OFFSET TOP FLANGE The top flange may be offset left or right for placement at the end of a header. Minimum seat width 3". The maximum allowable load is 0.50 of the table roof load for the GLT/GLS/GLTV, and 0.45 for the HGLT/HGLS/HGLTV. For skewed and offset top flange hangers, the maximum allowable load is 3500 lbs. No uplift load.

Simpson Strong-Tie offers three software programs to simplify product selection and specification. Each of these programs is available on CD ROM or for free download at www.strongtie.com.
Connector Selector
The Connector Selector finds the products that are appropriate for your connection and sorts them by lowest installed cost. Solutions are available for a wide variety of applications using solid sawn lumber, engineered wood and structural composite lumber, glulam beams and wood trusses. Available in U.S. (Allowable Stress Design) and Canadian (Limit States Design) versions.
Strong-Wall Selector
The Strong-Wall Selector helps specifiers choose a lateral force resisting system using Wood or Steel Strong-Wall Shearwalls. Optimized or Manual input provides the most cost effective solution or allows designers to choose and check whether any type and number of walls satisfy the shear load requirements.
ATS Selector
The ATS Selector recommends the correct ATS system components based upon load requirements and building code options input by the designer. It can also recommend the corresponding compression post designs. Resulting calculations can be printed and AutoCAD drawings can be inserted into plans.
This catalog reflects changes in the allowable loads and configurations of some Simpson Strong-Tie Company Inc. products. This catalog is effective until December 31, 2007, and supersedes all information in all earlier publications, including catalogs, brochures, fliers, technical bulletins, etc. Use this edition as a current printed reference. Information on allowable loads and configurations is updated annually. We post our catalogs on www.strongtie.com. Please visit our site, and sign up for any information updates. Allowable loads in this catalog are for the described specific applications of properly-installed products. Product modifications, improper loading or installation procedures, or deviations from recommended applications will affect connector allowable load-carrying capacities.
