ABSTRACT:
A connection in a wood frame building wherein a one piece sheet metal hanger connector is used to join together a wood supporting member, and one or two wood supported members. The connector is connected to the supporting member by a top flange and the supported members are joined to the connector as well as to the supporting member by fasteners driven through openings in flanges of the connector, through the supporting member, through the back wall of the connector and into the supporting member. The arrangement places the fasteners in double shear resulting in unusually large load holding capability for the size and weight of the sheet metal connector. The connector seat is fully supported at the sides and back resulting in high load holding capacity both downwardly and upwardly with unusual rigidity and resistance to lateral forces.
