ABSTRACT:
A purlin hanger used for suspending a wide variety of items from many different types of purlins which may be horizontal or sloping. The hanger is primarily a rigid high strength generally C-shape frame or body which includes an angled upper end and an offset lower end. The angled upper end bears against the interior of a corner formed by a web and a lower flange of the purlin. The lower end is slightly offset from the exterior of the corner and has a tapped hole to receive a threaded hanging rod to which a wide variety of clips or clamps may be attached. The C-shape frame extends with considerable clearance around the purlin lower flange and any treatment of the edge of the flange such a fold or further flange. An adjustable shim is positioned between the lower end of the body and the exterior of the corner of the purlin. The hanger engages the purlin at the interior of the corner and avoids placing a load with any significant moment arm on any part of the flange of the purlin.
