The THGBHV Heavy Truss Hanger for Girders, Bolted is a high-capacity bolted hanger designed for connecting multi-ply structural composite lumber (SCL) to girder trusses and attaches to a vertical web to support higher loads. This girder truss hanger has options for skewing or dropping the buckets to provide design flexibility for a variety of SCL-to-truss connections.

Features

• Can be skewed a maximum of 45°.
• The maximum allowable download and uplift load for skew is 0.87 of the table load.
• Backplates can be extended to allow for up to a 6" dropped bucket.
• Available in 9″ and 11″ bucket heights to accommodate a range of SCL sizes.

Installation

• All multiple members must be fastened together to act as a single unit.
• Maximum 11 7/8" bottom chord in the carrying member to allow for the minimum bolt end distance.
• Bolts must be installed symmetrically when fewer than the maximum number of bolts are used on the backplate.

Girders must have adequate lateral bracing to prevent excessive displacement due to secondary torsional stresses (refer to ANSI/TPI 1-2014 Section 7.5.3.5). Carrying member must be a minimum two-ply girder truss to allow for required minimum screw penetration.

NOTE: The correct fasteners installed in the correct position must be used to achieve published load values
