Scope

Pryda Connectors and Engineered Systems - Hangers and Brackets are designed and manufactured to mount horizontal timber members to vertical structural elements:

• NZ Pryda Framing Bracket is for fixing timber joists to timber beams, timber jack trusses to timber truncated girder trusses, timber ceiling joists to timber hangers, timber floor trusses to timber beams, timber pergola rafters to timber fasciae, and timber beams to masonry to resist gravity and wind uplift loads with design capacities dependent on the bracket and fixing method used. These are detailed in the Reference Documents for Specific Engineering Design use.
• NZ Variable Skew Angle Bracket is used for supporting timber beams and timber trusses connecting to timber framing members in non-perpendicular arrangements to resist gravity and wind uplift loads with load capacities detailed in the Reference Documents for Specific Engineering Design use.
• NZ Pryda Face Mount Hanger is used for timber joist to timber beam and timber I-joist to timber beam connections to resist gravity loads with a design capacity of 6.2 kN for Specific Engineering Design use.
• NZ Heavy Duty Joist Hanger is used for timber beam to timber beam connections to resist gravity and wind uplift loads with design capacities dependent on the fixing method and the load case which are detailed in the Technical Literature for Specific Engineering Design use.
• NZ Split Joist Hanger is to connect timber single and double joists, trusses and beams to other timber framing members to resist gravity and wind uplift loads with design capacities dependent on the fixing method used and the load case which are detailed in the Reference Documents for Specific Engineering Design use.
• NZ Tim-Con Bracket is to connect timber beams to structural concrete to resist gravity and wind uplift loads with design capacities dependent on the bracket type and load case which are detailed in the Reference Documents for Specific Engineering Design use.
