Wood members must also have a reference compression perpendicular to grain design value, Fcz, of 65 psi (. MPa) or greater. JPF hangers provide torsional resistance, where torsional resistance is defined as a moment not less than 75 pounds ( N) times the depth of the joist at which the lateral movement of the top or bottom of the joist with respect to the vertical position of the joist is 0.5 inch (. mm). 5 Joist nails must be driven horizontally into the joist at an angle of 0- to 5-degrees from normal, such that they penetrate through the joist, and into the header.
