Joist Hangers & Timber Connectors: choosing well

Use the right nails

Connectors only perform with the fixings specified, usually square-twisted or connector nails in every hole the maker requires.

Restraint straps

Building regulations require lateral restraint in many situations; your design shows where.

In England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.

Getting joist hangers and timber connectors onto your Great Yarmouth site

Boxed or bundled with your timber. Great Yarmouth is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
• On busy streets in Great Yarmouth, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
• Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.

Quantities: a worked example

A floor 4.8 m wide with joists at 400 mm centres has 13 joists; hung off a wall at one end that is 13 joist hangers, plus restraint straps at the spacing your design shows.
