The Simpson 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 3-7/8″. 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 up to 1/2″ max. to allow for greater construction tolerances (maximum gap for standard allowable loads is 1/8″ per ASTM D1761 and D7147). The HTU28 heavy face mount truss hanger features a G90 galvanized finish for added corrosion resistance and requires the use of hot-dip galvanized fasteners which meet the specifications of ASTM A153.
Installation:
- Use all specified fasteners.
- Can be installed filling round holes only, or filling round and triangle holes for maximum values.
- See alternate installation for applications using the HTU26 on a 2×4 carrying member or HTU28 or HTU210 on a 2×6 carrying member for additional uplift capacity.
