Engineered Joist to SIP Panel Hanger
The IUQ and HIUQ is the first hanger range specifically designed to allow engineered joists to be face fixed to a structural insulated panel (SIP), when used in conjunction with the CSA screws and SSSH screws respectively.
(CSA & SSH screws supplied with hangers).
The IUQ and HIUQ (standard and heavy duty respectively) can be used with either metal web or engineered I-joists.
Joists no longer sit on top of the wall, thus eliminating thermal bridging at the joist/wall junction.
Cuts down on the time consuming and costly process of placing timber blocking pieces between the joists and the wall panels, creating a better air seal.
Installation is simple and efficient, requiring 4 CSA screws for the IUQ installation and 4 SSH screws for the HIUQ installation.
The square twist nails can be installed into the joist at a positive angle to help reduce the chance of splitting the joist bottom chords.
