Simpson Strong-Tie MIU series hangers are designed for commercial and high load I-joist applications without requiring web stiffeners. The MIU features Positive Angle Nailing (PAN), which minimizes splitting of the flanges while permitting time-saving nailing from a better angle. The Strong-Tie MIU1.81/9 face mount joist hanger features a G90 galvanized finish for corrosion resistance and requires the use of hot-dip galvanized fasteners which meet the specifications of ASTM A153.
Installation:
- Use all specified fasteners. Verify that the header can take the required fasteners specified in the table.
- Models have optional triangle joist nail holes for additional uplift. Properly attached web stiffeners are required.
- MIU—add four additional 10dx1 1/2″ joist nails for a total uplift load of 975 lbs.
NOTE: The correct fasteners installed in the correct position must be used to achieve published load values
