BPC Timber to Masonry Joist Hanger – 100mm x 200mm
(Each)
The standard Single Piece Masonry Hanger is designed for building into brickwork or blockwork.
As standard all hangers are manufactured from 2.0mm thick pre-galvanised steel to BS EN 10346 : 2009, DX51D + G600 compliant with BS6178: Part 1:1990 and to the requirements of BS5268.
Wide top flange design offers increased loading capacity on masonry with a minimum crushing strength of 2.8N/mm2 and above. Hangers 150mm deep and over are manufactured 10mm less to allow for notching and regularisation of timber joists.
All hangers feature 75mm bearing surface and pre-punched side gussets to allow nail fixing into timber joists with 30 x 3.75mm sherardized square twist nails.
- Width: 100mm
- Height: 200mm
Installation Details
- The back plate of the joist hanger must be flush against the supporting masonry.
- A minimum of 675mm of cured masonry must be in position above the joist hanger flanges before any load is applied.
- Timber joists should be cut square and butt up to the back face of the hanger with a maximum allowed gap of 6mm.
- Nail to the timber joist through all pre-punched holes in each side gusset with 30×3.75mm sherardized square twist nails.
