Product Description
The Simpson Strong-Tie BA314 is a top-flange joist hanger engineered for both engineered wood products and solid sawn lumber applications in medium- to higher-load conditions. Designed for a nominal 3x14 member size, this one-piece hanger delivers structural reliability without the cost or complexity of welded alternatives. The BA314 supports minimum nailing with positive-angle nailing (PAN) for moderate load conditions and accommodates maximum nailing configurations to handle higher loads - making it a versatile solution across a wide range of framing applications.
Features
- Cost-effective one-piece design compared to welded hangers
- A full-height joist flange that captures the top chord of the joist to prevent rotation and eliminate the need for web stiffeners
- Available for special order to accommodate sloped and/or skewed members
- Nominal joist size: 3x14
- Made from 12-gauge steel
- Galvanized (G90) for corrosion resistance
