1) Calculated using nail resistance values in CSA O86.1-94. Nails considered to be equivalent to toe-nails to end distance.<br />
Uplift values have been increased by 1.15 for short-term loading such as wind.<br />
2) When used in a truss application, the fasteners into the supported member will need to be driven through the truss plate to complete the installation.<br />
<br />
4) Supporting and supported wood members are to be designed by others. Ensure supporting member can accept all fasteners.<br />
5) Minimum nail embedment shall be 8 nail diameters (typ.).<br />

Materials: 12 gauge<br />
Finish: G90 galvanizing<br />
Options: See Specialty Options Chart.<br />
THDH412 is available in Triple Zinc.<br />
To order, add TZ to stock number,<br />
as in THDH412-TZ.<br />
Codes: Load values are derived from data<br />
submitted to various North American<br />
building code evaluators.<br />
<strong>Installation</strong>:<br />
• Use all specified fasteners. See Product <strong>Notes</strong>,<br />
page 10.<br />
• Joist nails must be driven in at a 30° to 45° angle<br />
through the joist or truss into the header to achieve<br />
listed loads. Standard length “double shear” nails<br />
must be used to achieve listed load values.<br />
See EWP applications page 122<br />
