Do not bend hanger rods sideways and call it “close enough.”
Check
Confirm the rod is bending because of the sloped face, not duct load.
Check for cracked concrete, sliding washer, or crooked anchor.
Verify whether a flat attachment point is available.
Use approved angled hardware/bracket direction before loading.
Re-level the trapeze after correction.

Say this to your foreman
The hanger rods at [location] are side-loaded on a sloped concrete beam face. I checked the bearing surface. Do you want an approved bevel/shim/swivel support or a revised hanger point?
