Choosing joist hangers and timber connectors

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.

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.

How much will you need?

A floor 5.4 m wide with joists at 400 mm centres has 15 joists; hung off a wall at one end that is 15 joist hangers, plus restraint straps at the spacing your design shows.
