I have a kitchen/dining combo room divided by an arch. The arch is a 4 X
12 header that I want to move into the attic. I want to butt the ceiling rafters into the header beam so that the ceiling is complete flush, no arch.I have used joist hangers on decks before for similar applications but the bottom of the joist hanger always protrudes a little below the joists/rafters.
On this application I will be drywalling over the bottom of the ceiling rafters so the hangers will interfear will the drywall laying flush. Any suggestions on how to attach the ceiling rafters to the header beam so that the bottom surface is complete flush for the drywall? Will end nailing the ceiling rafters to the header beam be enough to support the ceiling rafters, drywall, and insulation? The ceiling rafters are 10' long.
Thanks
