Why is it that “Hanger Not Found” seems to be the hanger of choice when I attempt to use my truss software’s automatic hanger selection?

This is a question I have heard since the very first attempts were made to include hangers in the proprietary truss design software. Early on, it may have had to do with the software. Today, as the software has gotten more and more sophisticated, it is more often than not that the software is right.

Let’s look at some of the parameters that go into the selection of a truss hanger. Interestingly, the fact that it is a truss hanger adds another level of complexity to common joist hanger selection due to additional considerations spelled out in ANSI/TPI 1. More on that in a future Question of the Day. First let’s list the design considerations for hanger selection outside of gravity and uplift loading. It’s the old case of what comes first, the hanger or the load? In this case we’re going to look first at the hanger, header (or carrying member) and the joist/truss (otherwise know as the carried member).

In order to correctly specify the hanger, we need to know the size (thickness & depth), species and number of plies of the carrying member or header. Secondly, we need to know the size of the heel (thickness and end depth of member in the hanger), species and number of plies of the carried member (joist). Thirdly, we need to know if the carried member is flush with the carrying member at the top, bottom or somewhere in between. [Roof truss applications are generally assumed to be flush bottom, floor joist applications are generally assumed to be flush at the top, and mid-height applications break both rules and need additional considerations.]

Next we may want to decide whether we are looking for a face mount or top mount hanger.

Additionally, we may want to specify the fasteners for the connection knowing that the contractor on the jobsite never has 16d commons on his jobs, we may want to specify that the hangers only get 10d common nails specified (or even 10dx1 ½”).

Notice that we have not yet even addressed the download and uplift demand loads and before we do we will need to address the application and assign the appropriate duration factors to those forthcoming loads. The American Wood Council, through it National Design Specification (NDS) spells out the Load Duration Factors Section 2.3.2.1 states, Wood has the property of carrying substantially greater maximum loads for short durations than for long durations of loading.

NDS Table 2.3.2 (see below) gives frequently used load duration factors. Load duration factors take into account how long the load is anticipated to be applied to the hanger and range from 0.90 [for cases with excessively high permanent dead load to live load ratios] to 2.0 for impact loads that happen instantly.

Most commonly used are 1.00 for normal joist duration, 1.15 for snow applications, 1.25 for Construction Loads and 1.60 for wind and seismic event loads.

Loads? Still not yet. What have we done so far? Well, in a nutshell, we established the rules for available real estate available for both the carrying and carried members, in addition to perhaps specifying fasteners and determining the appropriate load durations. Why is it so important to establish the available real estate before even considering the loads? Lets take a look at the following two pictures to see the answer.

Looking only at the picture on the left, we see a conventional truss heel seated into a hanger with slant nailing through the hanger flange through the end of the truss heel and into the header or carrying member, in this case a glulam beam. Looking at this same connection from above we clearly see that there is no way that the carried truss is providing the needed real estate (heel height) to account for and accept all of the hanger flange fasteners. It is a safe bet that this connection is not developing the published uplift loads with over half of the required joist nails missing. This short heel height condition can also affect the download capacity of the hanger. Real estate matters! The published design values for hangers assume that the stated number of fasteners are installed and installed properly.

Only once we have established the real estate area, determined the width and height requirements of the connector, specified fasteners and duration factors do we need to consider loads.

Back to the original question…why “Hanger Not Found”? The absolute most prevalent reason for a hanger not being found is lack of adequate heel height, similar to the photos above. What about all those cases where you have a stubbed truss or mono framing into the girder? How could that possibly not get enough heel height?

Do you inset your end verticals on those carried trusses to account for girders placed out of plumb? If you do your heel height has just returned back down to your bottom chord depth as far as the hanger is concerned.

What if you’ve optimized your supporting truss and it only needs to be a one ply. The published loads are probably going to reduce if those header nails are reduced from full 10d commons to 10dx 1 ½”. Does that hanger still work now?

The truth of the matter as far as automatic hanger specification is concerned is that the software is looking at all the design assumptions, General Notes, footnotes, and exceptions. If you get a “Hanger Not Found” it’s probably time to do a little investigation and not just think that the function doesn’t work well. Thanks for reading.

Todd Drummond Consulting, LLC. Get a 6% to 12.5% Productivity Gain for All Your Office Staff Most companies are willing to spend serious money on equipment investments to obtain manufacturing gains. Yet few understand what kind of investments could be made for the enhancement of everyone else’s productivity. One area that is not easily understood, and that most are not even aware of, is a combined communication and project process system.

When it comes to the office, too many opt for the so-called freebie software (Gmail, DropBox, and so on). Do you use your plate vendor’s scheduling application, a separate email system, and files stored on the server and have someone, or everyone, constantly monitor task completion updates via manual means of viewing displayed dates in multiple schedules?

Think about how much time everyone spends looking for information. How much time is spent actually making phone calls or speaking with someone directly to obtain information on something as simple as a task being completed? An example of this might be a quote that has been completed or the status of a request for a change order on a given project. In every (nonscientific) survey I have conducted, most people spend an average of one to two hours every day looking for information or answering someone else’s questions with these numerous 10 to 15 minute interruptions. Thus, a very conservative number of only saving a half to one full hour which is equal to just 3 or 6 phone calls every day for every person is a substantial reward (6% to 12.5% gains). At a minimum you get an extra 2.5+ hours extra every week for more designs, sales, and every other task that makes more money for the company. The larger the group in the office the more pronounced this is an issue. (5+ designers for example) Ask another question in your office: About how much time do your people spend looking at multiple schedules (delivery, manufacturing, and the design group)? Are all the schedules linked with automated dependencies so nobody has to manually update one based on another schedule? By this I mean that the delivery is dependent on the manufacturing, which is dependent on the design, and so on. If any one of these critical steps is falling behind, does your scheduling system show you at a glance that this is happening, and does the scheduling system actually inform you of this with automated notices? Wait a minute. You mean you did not know a computer system can send out notices to you, the salespeople, and even a customer if critical dates are not being met? Why would anyone want to be constantly spending time reviewing schedules to see who, what, or where something is not progressing the way it should be when a computer could be doing this task for you and everyone else?

A centralized cloud-based database is highly recommended for all the pertinent information linked to each project.

•

Tasks and assignments for every stage (no more asking others what, where, or when)

•

Notes and emails, which should include MS Outlook

•

Any electronic documents (truss files, print PDFs, documents, spreadsheets, and so on)

•

Linked and dependent schedules for every department

•

Automated reminders sent to anyone, such as salespeople, customers, and any staff, for any deadline-driven task, like change requests

•

Streamlined project processing that does not allow people to skip critical data (for example, the jobsite address at the time of the order creation)

•

Automated logs with time stamps of who did what for any action

•

Any type of report with just a few mouse clicks for clear understanding of productivities and assignments

•

All information displayed in browser form so any smartphone, tablet, or computer will allow any user with rights and privileges to view critical, need-to-know-now information at a glance

Now, the so-called free versions systems versus the expensive systems to meet the project processing and communication system do not come close in comparison. It is simple: If the information is not all seamlessly linked to each project the way I have outlined, you will not get the 6% to 12.5% gains. People will spend too much time searching for information, double inputting the same information, and leaving much of needed data empty. How much would you be willing to spend to get a 6% to 12.5% gain in your manufacturing and if so, why not a lesser but reasonable amount on the rest of your company’s productivity? Essentially, you get what you pay for.

If you want to be able to accomplish more with your existing staff, then invest the time and money into improving your communication and order process system. Evolve with the times to stay competitive and improve productivity with your existing talent. You will produce more while reducing the cost, time, and effort to accomplish each project.
