Jonathan here with Colorado Custom Covers and Decks! Today, I'm going to walk you through the installation of LU210Z hangers, which are essential for exterior projects to ensure durability and safety.
To properly frame a deck, it's important to install LUSZ hangers correctly. Here are the steps to follow:
- Position the Hanger: Place the LU210Z hanger against the joist, ensuring it's flush and tight.
- Initial Fastening: Use Tico nails to secure the hanger, starting with the top holes to keep it in place.
- Ensure Tightness: Push the hanger up with your thumb for a snug fit and finish nailing all the holes.
- Add Shear Support: Switch to 2.5-inch Simpson SES connector screws for added shear strength, driving them in at an angle to secure the joist to the ledger.
First, make sure that the hanger is a LUSZ hanger. This will ensure that it will not rust.
Next, push the hanger tight to the bottom of the joist and tight to one side. This will help ensure that it is properly aligned.
Then, install one nail on one side of the hanger. After that, push the opposite side tight to the joist. Make sure that the bottom of the hanger is tight to the joist and add another nail.
After both sides are nailed, make sure that the hanger is tight on both sides and bottom. Then, fill all flush nail holes to ensure a proper connection.
Finally, for the shear holes, use 2-1/2" Simpson hanger screws. Fill all holes to ensure a secure structural finish. @strongtie
