THFI Hanger Features Seat Cleats® That Lock the Bottom Flange of
the I-joist to the Hanger, Eliminating the Need for Joist Nails
chord of the I-joist, so web stiffeners are not required, saving material
costs. What’s more, alignment tabs simplify the proper vertical
alignment of the THFI, which has cleats to hold the hanger in place.
(If the alignment tabs are not needed or are in the way of larger joists,
the tabs can be easily bent out of the way at no loss of strength to the
THFI. “Speed prongs” allow temporary placement if alignment tabs
cannot be used.)
News of the new THFI comes on the heels of the launch of MiTek’s new
MiTek Builder Products division, which integrates a number of MiTek
businesses, building products, and
brands, including USP Structural
Connectors, the Z4 Tie-Down System,
and the Hardy Frame Shear Wall
System, as well as specifying and
collaboration software tools such as
SAPPHIRE Supply and SAPPHIRE
Viewer.
