The WMU GFCMU Top-Flange Hangers provide superior support for joist installations on standard 8" grout-filled concrete masonry units (GFCMU). These top-flange masonry hangers are designed for flexibility, accommodating various joist configurations while maintaining exceptional structural integrity.
Key Features:
- Versatile Installation: The WMU hangers can be offset to the left or right, facilitating end-of-wall or corner placements without compromising strength.
- Adaptable to Slopes and Skews: Can be sloped up to 45° with no reduction in download or uplift capacities, and skewed up to 45° without diminishing download strength.
- Durable Construction: Manufactured from 12-gauge steel with a Simpson Strong-Tie gray paint finish, ensuring durability and resistance to environmental factors.
Applications:
- Masonry Construction: Designed for securely connecting wood joists to grout-filled concrete masonry units, ensuring stability in masonry structures.
- End-of-Wall and Corner Installations: Accommodates offset placements, making them ideal for joists terminating at wall ends or corners.
- Sloped and Skewed Joist Configurations: Supports joists installed at various angles, providing flexibility in structural design.
Installation:
- Fastening Requirements: Use all specified fasteners as per manufacturer guidelines.
- Masonry Strength: Minimum required masonry compressive strength (f'm) is 1,500 psi for optimal performance.
- Truss Compatibility: For 4x trusses, the end vertical must be at least a double 4x2. For single-ply 2x trusses, a minimum of double 2x4 or single 2x6 is required.
- Mid-Wall Installation: Install between blocks using two 0.162" x 3 1/2" duplex nails cast into grout, with at least one grouted course above and below the top flange, and one #5 vertical rebar (minimum 24" long) in each adjacent cell.
- Top-of-Wall Installation: If hanger height exceeds joist height, the allowable load is 50% of the table load.
Options:
- Sloping: The hanger may be sloped up to 45° with an allowable download of 60% of the table load, with no reduction for uplift.
- Skewing: Skewing up to 45° is supported, with an allowable download of 60% of the table load and an allowable uplift of 25%.
- Offset Placement: The top flange may be offset left or right for corner placements, with an allowable download of 50% and uplift of 40% of the table load.
NOTE: The correct fasteners installed in the correct position must be used to achieve published load values
