With nearly 60 years of field and R&D experience, Simpson Strong-Tie ® timber connectors are manufactured to the industry's highest standards. Unmatched Quality from the Truss to the Foundation Submit registration Structural Connections On the acute side of the skewed LSSR hangers, fill obround holes only. Timber species for joint design is seasoned Radiata Pine, which is which is Australia Joint Group JD4 per AS 1720.1 Table H2.4. Reduce Duration of Load Factor where applicable. Duration of Load Factor (k1) is as shown. Reduce tabulated values where other Category applications govern. The Capacity Factor (φ) is 0.85 for nails and screws for structural joints in a Category 1 application. Design Capacity is the minimum of test data and structural joint calculation. Design Capacity is the lesser of (a) the Characteristic Capacity multiplied by the Australian Capacity Factor (φ), and applicable the k modification factors following AS1720.1 and (b) the Serviceability Capacity which is the load at 3.2mm joint slip. SLOPED, SKEWED or SLOPED & SKEWED HANGERS Make sure side stirrups are snug close to the joist, bend lines are plumb.Slide hanger into position adjust seat and install seat nails.Verify that the header/rafter can take the fasteners specified in the table.Easy installation, high loads, and low installation cost.Provides support underneath the joist, rafter or beam.Cab be used for both solid sawn timber and engineered wood.Swivel seat adjusts easily and supports rafter/joist.Flange design allows for easy skew adjustment, from 0° to 45°.Makes it possible to install after the rafters are already in place.Carbon Steel 1.3mm thick: LSSR1.81Z, LSSR2.1Z.Now one hanger can handle a wide range of framing applications. One of its key features is that it can be installed after all of the rafters have been tacked into place. For more information about the LSSR rafter hanger, visit /LSSR.The innovative design of the LSSR Slopeable & Skewable Rafter Hanger allows it to adjust for skew up to 45° and features an innovative hinged swivel seat to adjust for up to a 45° slope on site, eliminating the need for pre‑skewed/sloped or custom‑order hangers. It’s an enhanced and improved design of the LSSU, which it will replace in the market. The new LSSR rafter hanger features a ZMAX® finish for extra corrosion protection and is available off the shelf, making it easily accessible for contractors on the go. Providing an innovative, retrofit-application solution is expected to particularly benefit builders in regions where stick-built framing dominates the new homebuilding market. With the LSSR, installers can cut all the rafters and tack them into place, then use a retrofit approach to nail hangers onto the roof assembly. ![]() Prior to the launch of the LSSR, hanger systems had been installed on the rafter and then attached to the ridge beam, with an installer nailing the hanger into place. “More importantly, the LSSR allows for retrofitted installs after rafters have been set in place, improving jobsite efficiency for contractors while still increasing in the strength of hanger connections desired by customers.” “With the development of the LSSR, we’ve been able to provide a more intuitive solution for installing hangers during rafter system assemblies,” says Sam Hensen, vice president of connectors and lateral systems for Simpson Strong-Tie. ![]() The field-adjustable LSSR features an enhanced flange design allowing for skew adjustments from 0° to 45°, is easier to install than predecessor rafter hangers, and features an easily adjusted swivel stirrup that attaches to both sides of an I-joist for a stronger connection. It’s the first product of its kind designed to allow retrofit installation after rafter systems have been assembled in place, helping contractors accelerate job sequencing for improved productivity. Simpson Strong-Tie, the leader in engineered structural connectors and building solutions, today announced the launch of the patent-pending LSSR slopeable and skewable rafter hanger.
