IL <br />March 20, 2018 <br />Re: Wood Construction Connector Com pliance, for 2DI 5 International Codes & 2017 Florida Codes <br />To Whom It May Concern <br />Section 2303.5 of the 2015 International Building Code (lBq and 2017 Florida Building Code (FBC) specifies that <br />joist hangers shall be tested per ASTM D7147 Testing and Establishing Loads of Joist i`4angers. Previous versions of <br />the I BC a nd F BC required testing to comply vvith ASTM D1 761 Test Method lbr Mechanical r-asteners in Wood. Both <br />methods determine a connector's allowable load as the lowest of the following: <br />1 . Lowest ultimate of three tests (or average of 6) with a safety factor of 3 <br />2 Average load at 118-inch deflection <br />3� Calculations per American Wood Council National Design Specification forWood Construction (NDS) <br />The primary changes in ASTM D7147 are requirements to measure properties of the tested materials, such as steel <br />strength. fastener strength. and wood specific gravity- The tested ultimate loads must be adjusted when bested <br />material properties exceed the specified properties <br />ICC Evaluation Services (ICC-ES) revised AC13 Acciaptance Criteria for Joist 14angers and Similar [Devices in <br />October 2016 to incorporate a methodology to evaluate products to the 2015 1 -Codes. Simpson Strong -Tie is working <br />on re-evaluating wood constfuctun connector loads to the new standard bo update our product evaluation reports to <br />the 2015 I -Codes. As soon as the updated evaluation reports are completed, we will apply for Florida Product <br />Approvals <br />Hcnvever, reevaluating a large number of products will take time. While manufacturers work with product certification <br />agencies to update their wood connector evaluation reports, we recommend that building departments under the <br />2015 I -Codes and 2017 Florida Codes continue to accept code reports showing compliance to the 2012 and 2014 <br />editions, respectively: until July 2018. <br />The information in this letter is valid until 613012018 when it will be re-evaluated by Simpson Strong -Tie- Please visit <br />wwwstrongtie.com for additional pertinent information. If you have questions or need further assistance regarding <br />this matter. please contact the Simpson Strong -Tie Engineering Department at 800.999 5099. <br />Sincerely, <br />SIMPSON STRONG -TIE COMPANY INC. <br />/6P4 <br />Keith Cullum, P.
