EXPAMET SPH JOIST HANGERS

Design Features ● Single-piece, non- welded construction.

The BAT S.P.H. Joist Hanger is a single piece timber to masonry hanger for building into the inner leaf of external cavity walls and internal walls.

● Wider masonry flange to increase loadings on masonry of

compressive strength 2.8N/mm2 and greater. ● Manufactured from 2mm thick pre-galvanised mild steel to

BS EN 10327 : 2004, DX51D + Z600. ● 75mm load bearing surfaces.

75mm

● All hangers 150mm deep and over are manufactured 10mm less to

allow for notching and regularisation of timber joists. ● Gusset nail holes are non coaxial. ● Standard available widths 38, 44, 47, 50, 63, 75, 100, 125, 150mm.

Installation Requirements Standard Type ‘S’

The back face of hanger must be flush against the wall. The timber joist should be square cut and butting to the back face of the hanger (maximum permitted gap 6mm). A minimum height of 675mm of set masonry must be in position above the supporting flange before any load is applied. Fixing: Nail to the joist through the nail holes in each side gusset with BAT 3.75 x 30mm long square twisted sherardised nails. It is recommended that joists are notched for the base of the hanger to achieve a level surface for plasterboarding. Type ‘R’ and ‘ST’ provide additional location and alignment during construction.

Return Type ‘R’

HD Restraint Straps must be used with all types of SPH joist hangers

(‘R’ Type is a Standard type ‘S’ with Return Plate added).

to provide lateral restraint.

How to Order/Specify BAT SPH Joist Hangers TYPE ‘S’ – Please state dimensions of joist (a) depth (b) width e.g. SPHS22550 Minimum box quantity dependent on hanger size.

TYPES ‘R’ & ‘ST’ (made to order) – Please state dimensions of joist (a) depth

Straddle Type ‘ST’

(b) width

(‘ST’ Type is two Standard Joist Hangers joined together with Jointing Plate).

(c) top flange (to suit wall width) e.g. SPH22550R100 Quantity made to order

4

Both the ‘R’ and ‘ST’ Type enables the hangers to be positioned accurately whilst the masonry is built above.

Installation Requirements ● Nominal Dimensions

Heavy Duty - 27.5 x 5.0mm

The installation of restraint straps must comply with the current

Standard - 27.5 x 2.5mm

Building Regulations, British Standards BS 5628 : Part 1 and Part 3 and BS 8103 : Part 1, as well as NHBC recommendations.

● Hole diameters are 6mm and they are holed at 12.5mm

grouped in threes, diagonally across the width of the strap.

When straps are being fixed across joists or trussed rafters which are parallel with the wall, and where there is a gap between the wall and the first joist or truss, the gap must be packed. Noggins must be provided between each joist or truss. Fixing for Heavy Duty and Standard Straps: use either No 12 x 50mm wood screws or 4.00 dia x 75mm corrosion resistant nails. For stainless steel straps, stainless steel fixings must be used.

Movement joints are necessary in masonry wall panels to cater for the natural movement of buildings. Tensile and compressive forces can develop that lead to cracking and bowing of walls. BS5628-3 details the provision of movement joints in clay, calcium silicate, concrete and stone masonry.

STAINLESS STEEL MOVEMENT TIES

Power-Tie Movement Ties allow expansion and contraction at movement joints whilst providing shear resistance between adjacent panels and supports. Placing the sleeve on the plain end of the movement tie with 10mm clearance, debonds the tie from the mortar joint, permitting longitudinal movement.

EXPAMET SOFFIT VENT MESH

Examples of Applications

75 x 50mm fixing block

The provision of eaves vents to limit condensation risk is a requirement of the Building Regulations. Expamet expanded stainless steel is used over the vents to exclude birds and insects. This mesh is an economical material for the purpose. It is readily adaptable to various eaves details, is light in weight and easy to handle on site. Coils of mesh in convenient dispensers make site work easier and avoid wastage.

Ensure existing wall is sound and clean. Locate the starter above the DPC. Plumb the section and mark positions of the fixing holes.

Drill and plug the existing wall, taking care to avoid mortar joints.

Lightly screw the first length to the existing wall over weatherseal if required, then plumb, mark and drill out the next starter. Make sure that the slot at the end of one length always lies on top of the slot of the adjacent length. Tighten all screws when all required lengths are in position.

Lay bricks or blocks, be sure to bed them with mortar against the starter. Multi-Starter: Turn-n-slide ties into the mortar as you build. Wall Starters and UniStarters: Bend ties into the mortar as you build. Seal vertical joint with proprietary flexible sealant.
