Plywood to Steel beam connection

Plywood to Steel beam connection

On one of my project I have 3/4 floor plywood that was originally nailed to nailer on top of a W12x35 steel beam (Flange thickness 0.52). But due to some height concerns the nailer is removed and now we have to nail the plywood directly to beam flange. Can you please recommend the most efficient fastener for this application?

Hi Rahul,

For information on attaching wood to steel with a direct fastener, please refer to Section 3.2.2.4 of Hilti's Direct Fastening Product Technical Guide. Additional technical information on Hilti's general application fasteners can be found in Section 3.2.5 of the same technical guide.

Regards,
Ashley
