The DP24 Deep Notch Repair Kit restores the strength of Floor Joists resulting from very deep notch cuts from the bottom of the Joist up. The DP24 has been tested and found suitable for tension repairs where the notch cut is from the bottom of the joist up. The DP24 works for notches up to 6" wide. Please download the engineering report for aditional details. The DP Series can be used in conjuction with our other joist repair kits to maximize strength and "fall" of drain drain lines where a slop is required for proper drainage, and of course in situations where joist damage is severe. Works with as little as 2" of wood remaining at the top of the Joist. Installation Instructions and Eng Report
Deeply cut floor joists which leave only a small section of wood for support are a difficult problem to solve. The DP24 provides the solution with heavy duty steel and structual fasteners that more than make up for the lost support.
The DP24 will repair a notch up to 6" wide. If the notch you need to repair is wider, check out the DP30 for notches up to 12" wide
