Rapid Build Masonry Joist Hanger RB–JHI
— Suitable for use with Open Web Joists, I–Joists and trusses — Non return hangers are suitable with no masonry above. Return only required for increased load capacity
In Situ
— No masonry is required above the hanger (unless stated for increased load capacity). — The masonry supporting the hanger must be cured for 3 days prior to loading the floor. — The RB–JHI/RB–JHIR does not provide restraint, therefore restraint straps may be required (see pages 128 – 129)
