ABSTRACT:
A joist hanger (10) includes a U-shaped seat portion (16) composed of a flat seat base (18) and a pair of seat sidewalls (20) extending upwardly in spaced parallel relationship therefrom to thereby receive the end portion of an I-beam joist (12). Elongate, substantially straight retaining prongs (30) extend downwardly and nominally inwardly from sidewalls (20) to terminate at a pointed tip (52) spaced slightly above joist lower chord (32). Prongs (30) deflect out of the way of lower chord (32) as joist (12) is lowered into seat portion (16) and then resume their nominal diagonal orientation once lower chord (32) has passed by, to overlap chord (32) and thus prevent upward movement of joist (12).
