See Hanger tables. See Hanger Options for hanger modifications, which may result in reduced loads.

U - The standard U hanger provides flexibility of joist to header installation. Versatile fastener selection with tested allowable loads.

HU/HUC - Most models have triangle and round holes. To achieve maximum loads, fill both round and triangle holes with common nails. These heavy-duty connectors are designed for schools and other structures requiring additional strength, longevity and safety factors.

HUCQ - Features concealed flanges so it can be installed close to the end of the supporting beam or on a post. They install with Simpson Strong-Tie® Strong-Drive® screws (SDS) (supplied with the hanger) for high capacity and ease of installation.

Material: See tables.

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

Installation:

• Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes.
• HU/HUC - can be installed filling round holes only, or filling round and triangle holes for maximum values.
• HUCQ - When using structural composite lumber columns, the capacities shown in the tables are for fasteners applied to the wide face of the column. See technical bulletin T-SCLCOLUMN for more information.
• Web Stiffeners are required for all I-joists used with these hangers.
• See instructions for installation to masonry or concrete.
• HU/HUC hangers can be welded to a steel member. Allowable loads are the lesser of the values in the Hanger tables or the weld capacity - refer to technical bulletin T-HUHUC-W.

• HU hangers available with the header flanges turned in for 2 5/16" and larger widths, with no load reduction - order HUC hanger.
• See Hanger Options for sloped and/or skewed U/HU models, and HUC (concealed flange) models.
