Beam hangers offer a system solution that allows hardware to be preinstalled in a controlled shop environment before product delivery. Components, including gravity structure, roof, floor, and wall elements, can thus arrive on site machined and ready to assemble. Apart from time and cost savings, these pre-engineered connectors are known for their capacity to ensure robust connections. MTC Solutions distributes four beam hanger systems, including the APEX, which was engineered by our research and development team over the course of 4 years and is manufactured on demand in Canada using Canadian cast aluminum from Ontario, or in the United States for American mass timber projects. This local manufacturing allows for faster and cheaper shipping when and where you need it. Alongside it, we also supply the tested and proven GIGANT, RICON S VS, and MEGANT systems, ensuring engineers and builders have access to a broad range of solutions when it comes to mass timber construction. All these systems are tested and proven for the North American market, making them the perfect choice for your mass timber projects in the USA and Canada.
The MTC Solutions Beam Hanger Design Guide is a comprehensive resource for using our beam hanger systems, offering tabulated design values, complete detailing, and precise installation instructions that can facilitate your connection design process and reduce in-shop and on-site challenges. It provides guidelines for a multitude of design considerations, including fire design, reinforcement, skewed or sloped configurations, and seismic performance. Find out how our beam hanger systems—the APEX, MEGANT, RICON S VS, and GIGANT—can bring your mass timber project to the next level.
