SNP Skewed Nail Plate
The SNP3 Skewed Nail Plate is designed for connecting square
cut corner jack trusses at skews from 0° to 90°, as depicted in
Figure 1 below. An alternate installation for front side attachment
at skews 0° to 45° is depicted in Figure 2 below.
Materials: 16 gauge
Finish: G90 galvanizing
Codes: See chart for code references
Installation:
• Bend angle only once.
• 8d common (0.131" dia. x 2-1/2" long) nails may be used in lieu
of 8d (0.131") x 1-1/2" nails with no reduction in load.
Typical Installation (Figure 1):
• Attach the SNP3 to the supported truss on the acute angle
side so the SNP3 runs behind the end of the jack truss. Use all
the specied fasteners listed in the table below. The fasteners
should be installed nearest to bend line as possible then working
to the opposite end of ange. Not all nail holes will be lled.
• Set the jack truss against the supporting truss and nail the
exposed ange of the SNP3 into place. Use all the specied
fasteners listed in the table below. The fasteners should be
installed nearest to bend line as possible then working to the
opposite end of ange. Not all nail holes will be lled.
Alternate Installation (Figure 2):
• Attach the SNP3 to the supported truss on the obtuse angle
side so the SNP3 is on the front side of the jack truss. Use all
the specied fasteners listed in the table below. The fasteners
should be installed nearest to bend line as possible then working
to the opposite end of ange but no closer than 5/8” from the
end of the truss. Not all nail holes will be lled.
• Set the jack truss against the supporting truss and nail the
exposed ange of the SNP3 into place. Use all the specied
fasteners listed in the table below. The fasteners should be
installed nearest to bend line as possible then working to the
opposite end of ange. Not all nail holes will be lled.
