The information listed only applies to
hangers manufactured by USP
S
tructural Connectors® and installed
according to the instructions listed in
t
his catalog. Some of the options
listed may not have been evaluated
o
n a single hanger. The designer
must
always evaluate each
connection,
including the joist and
header capacities, before specifying
a
specialty connector. USP sloped
hangers are manufactured with the
plumb cut of the joist already
calculated. If a hanger with a
different height is needed, it must
be
specified at the time of ordering.
Materials: Steel gauge may vary
from that specified depending on the
specialty option and manufacturing
process used. Some formed hangers
may be welded when modifying the
hanger. Hanger configurations,
fastener schedules, and height may
vary from the tables depending on
the joist size, skew, and slope.
Finish: See specific hanger option
tables. Welded hangers are painted
with USP gray primer. Non-catalog
hangers available in Hot-dip
galvanized, use
HDG after product
number.
Allowable Loads: For multiple
options for the same connector, use
the most conservative reduction to
give the lowest design load.
Installation:
• Fill all nail holes with fasteners
specified in the tables.
• Fastener quantities may increase
from the amount listed in the tables
depending on hanger option.
•
NA16D-RS, NA20D, and NA25D
nails are supplied with hangers.
• For type A skewed hangers, the end
of joist must be bevel cut; for type B
skewed hangers, the end of joist
must be butt-cut.
Codes: Modified hangers are not
code evaluated due to their
numerous variations.
