Description

THIS IS A CUSTOM ORDER PRODUCT, PLEASE CONTACT US FOR COST, MANUFACTURING DETAILS AND DELIVERY TIMES

The HGU is a high-capacity girder hanger designed for use with Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws to make installation fast and easy, without predrilling. This face-mount hanger can be used for retrofit on the framing members after they are temporarily placed in position. The HGU is available skewed up to 45° or with one flange concealed.

Key Features

  • Available in many sizes for glulam or structural composite lumber
  • HGU-series hangers are fire-resistant F (flame) and T (temperature) rated in Intertek Design No. SST/WPCF 120-01

Material

  • 7 gauge

Finish

  • Galvanized

Installation

  • Use all specified fasteners; see General Notes.
  • Install with 1/4" x 2 1/2" Strong-Drive SDS Heavy-Duty Connector screws, which are provided with the GU series. (Note: lag screws will not achieve the same loads.)
  • Alternatively, the 1/4" x 2 1/2" Strong-Drive SDS face screws supplied with these hangers may be replaced with 1/4" x 3 1/2" SDS or 1/4" x 5" SDS screws for two-ply or three-ply LVL headers to transfer the hanger load to all plies. This alternate fastener option does not eliminate the need for uniform fastener requirements along the length of the multi-ply header.
  • All multiple members must be fastened together to act as a single unit.
  • Multiple member headers may require additional fasteners at the hanger locations. The quantity and location of the additional fasteners must be determined by the designer.

Concealed Flange

    • Available with one flange concealed. Specify flange to conceal.
    • On HGU with W 4 11/16" or less, flanges cannot be concealed.
    • Allowable loads for one-flange-concealed option: 0.75 of published load

Skewed

    • Available skewed up to 45°.
    • Concealed flanges are not available with skewed models.
    • Apply the following reduction factors to published loads:
