Abstract: A construction hanger for supporting a joist, rafter or the like to a support beam, in which the hanger is provided with a holddown tab for insuring proper seating of the joist to the hanger during the installation process. The invention also relates to a method of making such a hanger.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the field of construction hardware, and more particularly, to an adjustable post base for supporting a construction post relative to a concrete footing or the like. The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing such an adjustable post base.

Abstract: A variable pitch connector for supporting an inclined roof rafter. The connector includes a base, cradle, and support means. The support is a separate component, allowing the connector to be manufactured from differing weights of steel. The variable pitch connector may be retrofitted to existing roof assemblies. The invention also relates to a method for installing such connector.

Abstract: A continuous, chemical vapor deposition method for producing a coated glass article is disclosed. A glass substrate is advanced continuously, while hot, past first and second treating stations. A non-oxidizing atmosphere is maintained in the vicinity of the first treating station, while an oxidizing atmosphere is maintained in the vicinity of the second station. A non-oxidizing gas which contains a silane, e.g., SiH.sub.4, is directed from the first treating station against a surface of the glass to form a silicon coating on that surface. An oxidizing gas which includes a metal compound in the vapor phase is directed from the second station against the silicon-coated surface of the article.
