ISO DIS 19323

Description / Abstract: This standard is intended to provide standard test methods for determining the vertical load, axial load and torsional moment capacity as well as deflection characteristics of preformed three-dimensional joist hangers that are used primarily for securing one timber member to another, but the header may be concrete or masonry. The joist hangers primarily transfer vertical loads from the supported member to the support member, but they may also be required to transfer axial loads from the supported member to the support member.

NOTE Structural steel sections may also be substituted as the header, but are not covered in this standard.

One secondary mechanism to be considered is the effect of rotation of the supported member about its longitudinal axis on the joist hanger
