All the joist hanger nails I found are 1.5 inches. So do I put 1.5 inch nails both into the ledgerboard, rim joists, and the joist? I figured I needed to put 3 inch nails into the ledgerboard, 1.5 inch into the joists. And is 10 gauge good enough?
Each type of hanger has a specification for which nail you have to use for that particular hanger. IIRC you can find it on the box of hangers, or if not that, you can look online.
