Choosing joist hangers and timber connectors

Match the joist size

Hangers are sized to the joist width and depth. Order to your timber schedule.

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.
