2810HR Hole Reinforcer Installation Instructions

Use the 2810HR Joist Reinforcer to allow placement of up to 6” holes in 2” x 10” wood joists and 4” holes in 2” x 8” joists. The 2810HR Joist Reinforcer has 2 identical pieces which are simultaneously attached to a joist to accommodate a hole in the joist which may have pipes, conduit, wires, etc., already in place.

**CCRR-0279 covers use on 2×10 solid sawn described in Section 6.3. All other species and sizes will require an engineered letter.

Installation Instructions

1. Locate position of desired hole in joist, place the 2810HR halves in the orientation shown in the sketch below on the joist, and, using the hole in the 2810HR as a template, mark the opening onto the Keep the bottom half flush with the bottom of the joist and the upper half positioned with the alignment holes (see sketch) aligned. There are 4 alignment holes used on a 2” x 10” and 8” on a 2” x 8”. Take away the 2810HR halves and cut the hole in the joist as marked.
2. Place the lower piece onto the bottom of the joist and attach it to the joist below the alignment holes with screws supplied with the 2810HR, leaving the alignment holes open. Drive the screws tight against the metal.
3. Place the upper half onto the joist, lapping over the lower half with the alignment holes aligned. Drive screws through alignment holes, through both halves, into the joist, 6 screws in the 2” x 10”, 12 screws in the 2” x 8”. Then drive screws through the remaining holes, into the joist. Total number of screws in a 2” x 10” is 30 and 24 in a 2” x 8”. the finished installation must have a skew in every hole
   

Installation Limitations
