Transverse and longitudinal lateral support is provided by L2 1/2 x 2 1/2 x 12-gauge angle braces with a maximum length of five feet and a maximum spacing of ten feet on center, installed at a forty-five degree angle plus or minus ten degrees in each direction. The angle brace connects to the hanger angle using two number twelve sheet metal screws.
