ditto what widdle said. I recently needed structural screws for a joist hangers I installed in a friend’s home. The framing had been improperly done where a metal chimney flue passed through the roof. There was no way to get at one of the hangers I wanted to install to use nails. On a trip to the big Orange home improvement store for hangers and nails I discovered that Simpson now offers structural screws for their products. You can get them next to the joists hanger nails. -- Darrell, making more sawdust than I know what to do with |
