Fastener selection for powder actuated nails joining sawn wood 2x into wide flange beam webs
I am looking for fastener information to use powder actuated nails to join 2x nailers into wide flange steel beams. Embedment, staggered spacing, max web thicknesses. Also interested in top nailers joinded with powder actuated nails through the top flange.
