can't be done any easier. Joists actually are not uniform. Some can be up to a 1/4 inch out from others. So I use the first method shown here to make a deck flush. I make them flush then attach the hangar. If you try to apply the hangar at the same time as making them flush it's a nightmare. The piece of wood for hanging them flush also temporary holds it while you put in the structural screws for the hangar so it does two jobs. It flushes the connection and holds it so your hands are free to drive the screws. @@elgringoec

@@marks6663 That's good, but time consuming. If you get your boards from the same pallet then the dimensional variations are minimized (all run through the same mill on the same setup). Of course you can't account for curves, warps, etc, other than to cull boards. They can be flat even at the ends and up and down across the center. It works for me to check the board heights real quick to see how uniform they are and find the hanger position to make the average flush, then install all the hangers with two screws on one side square. Drop in the joists then bring up the other side of the hanger while assuring the top is even then a couple screws in that side. Get both sides of each joist, check along the span, then come back and fill in all the screws. Now granted, that might take some practice to master, but it's pretty efficient and effective thereafter.

Joist hangers, rafter tie-downs, strapping between sheathing. Entirely unnecessary. I've framed probably over 1,000 enormous houses using them, strictly to pass code. I've also renovated 100+ year old homes without any such measure, and stick framed, no joinery involved... barely any movement on floor joists. Most codes, such as 2 nails per side of a lateral stud are extraneous (down force, sheathing nailed in 6 spots over 4 feet, so 12 nails per stud), my old boss told me you could put a single 8 penny nail and once the sheathing is on, the stud won't move for another 100 years, he's right actually, think about it. What I've found to be the biggest enemy is either foundation or weather related (i.e. poor bedrock, rotting tree roots, sloppy mix... or weather, ice creep, improper vapor barrier and even simply drastic temp changes effect how well wood stays bonded). I get that these are lame tricks for non-carpenters, and non-framers since framers RARELY carry screws... the odd builder wants their subfloor "screwed and glued". That said, I only worked with the best, we still overbuilt everything.

@@DylanBegazo Lol, I guess my recommendation would be "learn how to hold a piece of wood while you nail it", though I have to admit there have been times like solo hanging rafters, when it helps to stab a nail (much like the screwed on piece of wood) and bend it over to act as a temporary hanger. You don't need a screw gun, screws and after you nail off, your hammer is already out to quickly pop out the hanger (which bent, is super fast to pull). But really, when you improvise on the fly instead of simply copying... it trains the brain to be capable of handling unfamiliar situations, kind of the point of being a carpenter (I never called myself one, I can frame and some other stuff). So far as a loose piece of wood, you could drop a nail in the top of the gap, start nailing it "proud" of where you want it, once you've got a bite, pull out the "gap nail" and keep hitting the other until it closes the gap and is flush. Tricks like that don't have to be taught... otherwise I'd just start a crew and hire monkeys.

Should not be using screws! Use nails instead. Screws are more brittle than nails. The exterior threading results in areas of thin metal that can easily break when exposed to stress or pressure. Nails don’t have a threaded shaft, so they aren’t as brittle as screws. And in turn, they offer greater tensile strength, making them desirable for construction and carpentry applications.

@@robertwolfgan you are correct about construction screws being a “thing”, however it depends on the application. screws vs. nails, the most important factor to consider is the types of pressures that they can best withstand. Shear strength refers to the ability of a fastener or other construction element to withstand lateral, or side to side, pressures: Think of wind blowing against a house. This is where nails excel. Even if the pressure becomes extreme, they will bend rather than snap (as screws often will as they are typically made of hardened steel).
@yankeedyehard

@@marleneloconte8576 screws are stronger all around? I challenge the veracity of your conclusions. First of all, what “tests” are you referring to? In tests for lateral movement (shear strength) nails are more ductile, therefore do a better job withstanding movement. Screws performed better in short term tests, however screws are more brittle and can fail quickly with repeated motion. So to sum up, there is sufficient evidence to support your claim that “screws are stronger all around”
