Before you order joist hangers and timber connectors
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.
