Zusammenfassung:A hinge connection for joining a heavy carrying wood member such as a glulam and a carried wood member having different depth dimensions including a metal hinge connector having side members disposed on opposite sides of the carrying and carried wood members joined at a lower portion by a seat member and at upper portions by a top flange member. The hinge connection is particularly suited for structures subject to earthquakes, hurricanes and other cataclysmic events which subject the structure to uplift and lateral forces in addition to the specified gravity load design forces.
