If joist hangers are used on the girder to support 107 96 CARPENTRY the joists, they will probably be used on the sill as well, as explainedin connection with the sill; and in this case the girder can be madeflush with the sill on top and the joists hung from both girder andsill with hangers, thus bringing both ends of a joist to the same Fig. 138. Method of Bringing Joist Level When Resting on Sill as shown in Fig. 138. If the girder were framed into the sill at all, itwould almost always be made flush with the sill on top, and by theproper adjustment of the hangers the joists would be arranged so asto be level. For framing the girder into the sill, a tenon-and-tusk joint, asshown in Fig. 139, would be used if the girder is to be flush with thesill on top. Since the girder would in most cases be deeper than thesill, the latter having a depth of only 6 inches the wall would neces-sarily have to be cut away in order to make a place for the girder. This condition is clearly shownin Fig. 140. The girder itselfshould not be cut over the wall,as shown in Fig. 141, becausethis greatly weakens the this method is used, the joistsshould be framed into the girderin the same way as they areframed into the sill, a mortisebeing cut in the girder, and atenon on the joist.
