Timber to Masonry Joist Hanger

These timber to masonry range of joist hangers can be used to connect solid sawn joists, trusses and engineered joists to masonry walls or steel beams.

Material

Pre-galvanised mild steel

Benefits

Built-in inspection slot at the base of the hanger to aid inspection from the ground

Top flange provides widest area in contact with masonry support allowing superior performance.

Embossments on hanger stiffen top flange and holes allow improved mortar keying.

Side flange on deeper hangers is much higher than traditional style, providing greatly enhanced resistance to joist rotation.

Standard Masonry Installation

Set hanger back flange tight against block wall when built to desired level, then continue with additional courses to complete wall height. Joist should be tight into back of hanger when possible. Maximum gap permitted is 6mm.

• MINIMUM 3 COURSES OF SOLID BLOCK (675MM MASONRY) REQUIRED ABOVE HANGER WITH MORTAR FULLY CURED BEFORE APPLYING LOAD.
• Do not stack blocks or heavy loads on the joists during construction unless the joists have additional support to take the full load of the blocks vertically and horizontally.

Fixed to Steel Beams

• The JHM range can be mechanically fixed to steel beams of thicknesses up to 12.5mm. 
• Timber is required in the web of the ‘I’ section steel beam when the hanger depth is less than the steel depth.
• Timber must be flush with the outer edges of the ‘I’ section steel beam.
• The shot-fired pins must be installed by a qualified person in accordance with the manufacturer’s installation requirements.
