Description
The SUR/L1.81, 2.06, 2.1, 2.37, 2.56 and HSUR/L series are 45° skewed hangers designed specifically to ease the installation of single and double I-joists. In addition to featuring positive-angle nailing, these hangers encapsulate the top flange of the I-joist, so no web stiffeners are required for standard installation.
The full range of 45° skewed hangers feature obround nail holes on the acute side, allowing nails to be easily installed parallel to the joist. Installation is further simplified with no required bevel cuts.
Material
- SUR and SUL — 16 gauge; HSUR and HSUL — 14 gauge
Finish
- Galvanized. Some products available in ZMAX® coating. See Corrosion Information.
Installation
- Use all specified fasteners. See General Notes.
- Illustrations show left and right skews SUR/L (SUR = skewed right; SUL = skewed left).
- The joist end may be square cut or bevel cut.
- Fill all round and obround nail holes with specified fasteners to achieve table loads. Where noted, triangle holes in the joist flange may be filled for additional uplift capacity.
- For I-joists with flanges less than 1 5/16", web stiffeners are required for all double joist hangers when using hangers that are 14 gauge and lighter.
Options
- These hangers cannot be modified but will accommodate a 40° to 50° skewed joist.
- Available with the A2 flange turned in on (2) 2x and 4x models only (see illustration in the image gallery). For example, specify HSURC410, HSULC410, SURC210-2 or SULC210-2.
Load Tables
These products are available with additional corrosion protection. Additional products on this page may also be available with this option, check with Simpson Strong-Tie for details.
For stainless-steel fasteners, see Fastener Types and Sizes Specified for Simpson Strong-Tie Connectors.
Many of these products are approved for installation with Strong-Drive® SD Connector screws.
- Uplift loads have been increased for earthquake or wind loading with no further increase allowed. Reduce where other loads govern.
- Triangular nail holes may be filled with 0.148" x 1 1/2" nails for additional uplift (requires web stiffeners).
- SUR/SUL 9" and 11", SUR/SUL1.81 /14, and all HSUR/HSUL models have additional holes that, when filled, can resist 795 lb. for DF/SP or 685 lb. for SPF/HF.
- SUR/SUL 14" models have (6) additional holes that, when filled, can resist 1,190 lb. for DF/SP and 1,025 lb. for SPF/HF.
- When the supported member is an I-joist with flanges less than 1 5/16" thick, the allowable uplift shall not exceed 190 lb. without web stiffeners.
- Allowable downloads are based on a joist-bearing capacity of 750 psi.
- Fasteners: Nail dimensions in the table are listed diameter by length. For additional information, see Fastener Types and Sizes Specified for Simpson Strong-Tie Connectors.
