joist hangers are almost always required
when building a deck here's how to
install them correctly begin with a
hanger size for your joist this is
typically marked on the packaging along
with the correct fasteners to use when
installing this hanger calls for 10 D
common galvanized nails to install align
the top plane of the joist with the rim
we're using a scrap of wood screwed to
the joist as a brace then snug the
hanger up under the joist squeeze the
legs tight and Hammer the prongs into
the rim to hold in place fasten the rim
side first nailing through all the
pre-drilled holes on both sides of the
hanger if space is too tight to swing a
hammer a pneumatic Paul nailer can be
used finally nail into the joist through
the pre-drilled holes again all the
holes on both sides of the hanger
then remove the guide block and the
installation is complete
