This is a masonry beam hanger designed for wood-to-masonry beam connections. Model Number: MBHU3.56\/11.25KT. In this size, it fits a 3-9\/16 inch wide by 11-1\/4 inch high beam seat and gives you a purpose-built connector for solid sawn lumber, engineered wood beams, and trusses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eWhat separates this hanger from improvised field solutions is that it is made specifically for face-mounted beam attachment on masonry. The one-piece, non-welded design keeps the connector simple and consistent, which is what you want on a structural connection. Instead of piecing together hardware in the field, you get a formed steel hanger sized for the beam and intended to work with the specified anchor and screw combination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe 10-gauge steel construction is the core of the product. On a connector like this, gauge is not just a number on a spec sheet. It tells you this hanger is built for structural duty, not light blocking or trim work. The G90 galvanized finish adds corrosion resistance for the connector body, which is important in masonry environments where moisture can be a factor. Simpson also notes that carbon-steel Titen HD anchors are not recommended for exposed exterior applications, so this is a product where installation environment matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eA big practical advantage here is that the fasteners are included. Each MBHU3.56\/11.25KT comes with two 3\/4 inch x 5 inch Titen HD anchors and twelve 1\/4 inch x 2-1\/2 inch Strong-Drive SDS heavy-duty connector screws. That saves time during layout and install, and it helps keep the connection aligned with the published fastening requirement. On structural connectors, using the correct hardware in the correct holes is not optional if you expect the connection to perform as intended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eFor installation, this hanger is designed to attach to concrete or grout-filled CMU walls using Titen HD anchors. Simpson calls out several details that matter in the field: drill holes with the same diameter as the specified Titen HD anchor, drill the hole 1\/2 inch deeper than the anchor length, and avoid oversized holes because they reduce the thread interlock and lower anchor capacity. The company also calls for a moisture barrier between the beam and wall where required by code or jurisdiction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIn terms of fit, this specific model has a 3-9\/16 inch seat width, an 11-1\/4 inch height, and a 3-1\/2 inch seat depth dimension. That makes it a match for the listed beam size in the MBHU series table. If you are working with solid sawn members, engineered wood, or trusses that fit this hanger size, the value is straightforward: you get a cleaner, more repeatable wood-to-masonry connection than trying to solve the problem with miscellaneous angles, bolts, or fabricated parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThis hanger is best suited for builders, framers, remodelers, and masonry or concrete crews handling beam bearing connections into concrete or grout-filled CMU. It is also a good fit for engineers and contractors who want a recognized connector from a major structural hardware manufacturer rather than a field-built workaround. If your job calls for a face-mounted beam hanger for masonry, and your member size matches this 3-9\/16 inch by 11-1\/4 inch model, this is the right kind of connector to be looking at.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails id=\"product-benefits-1\" class=\"acc\"\u003e\n  \u003csummary\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade for Wood-to-Masonry Connections\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"acc-body\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"img\"\u003e\n        \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/ssttoolbox.widen.net\/content\/mcv980suwr\/jpeg\/C_MBHU_InstPho_Pho_Instld_MasonryBeamFaceMountHanger-Step01_C0.jpeg?position=c\u0026amp;color=ffffffff\u0026amp;u=cjmyin\" alt=\"Simpson Strong-Tie MBHU3.56\/11.25KT Masonry Beam Face-Mount Hanger installed on a concrete masonry unit wall with Titen HD anchors before the wood beam is fastened\" class=\"tnblock-img\"\u003e\n      \u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"copy\"\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003eThis connector is built around the actual job: mounting a wood beam to masonry or concrete.
