Key Features:
The DGBF is a top-flange hanger specifically designed to connect wood beams to wood stud walls. The hanger features an angled joist stop whose unique design prevents the beam from seating too far back in the stirrup, creating space for two layers of 5/8" gypsum board (drywall) to be installed between the beam and the wall after framing. The DGBF hanger provides support for loads up to 3,015 lb. when installed over a double stud in Type III construction.
