Things to check before you order

Restraint straps

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

Use the right nails

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

Wales has its own Approved Documents, including its own Part L for energy efficiency, and building control is handled by the local authority or a registered approver.

Quantities: a worked example

A floor 3.6 m wide with joists at 400 mm centres has 10 joists; hung off a wall at one end that is 10 joist hangers, plus restraint straps at the spacing your design shows.
