Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie BA310 is a top-flange joist hanger engineered for both solid sawn lumber and engineered wood product applications. Designed as part of the trusted Simpson Strong-Tie BA series, this one-piece 12-gauge galvanized steel hanger delivers reliable performance across a range of load conditions - carrying medium loads with solid sawn lumber and higher loads with engineered wood products. The BA310 features positive-angle nailing (PAN) for minimum nailing configurations that target moderate load conditions, as well as maximum nailing configurations to support higher load demands. Its full-height joist flange captures the top chord of the joist, preventing rotation and eliminating the need for web stiffeners, making it a cost-effective and structurally sound choice for 3x10 framing connections.
