The DP30 has been tested and found suitable for tension repairs where the notch cut is from the bottom of the joist up. The DP30 works for notches up to 12" wide. Please download the engineering report for additional details.

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 DP30 provides the solution with heavy duty steel and structual fasteners that more than make up for the lost support.
The DP30 will repair a notch up to 12" wide. Check out the DP24 for notches up to 6" wide.
