The branch is hanging on the tap and pulling the main corner down. I can support and re-square it now-where do you want the branch hanger before we finish the joint?
Watch out
Do not use screws, sealant, the tap collar, or the main duct skin as the branch support.
Check
Check whether the branch has independent support at the required location.
Look for a main duct panel, joint, tap, or hanger being pulled out of alignment.
Temporarily support and realign the branch without forcing the connection.
Verify permanent hanger and reinforcement requirements from the project details.
