I’m knocking down a wall in my garage and need to put in a joist.

I’m going to use something like this hanger for the joist. But how would I attach this to the wall? Standard screws with a raw plug or something a bit more industrial like anchor bolts?

What's the joist for and what's the wall made of? I think it's usually M12 bolts and resin. Or they make hangers for attaching timber that can be cemented in place if you have access and enough courses of brick above it.

Edit: the description for that product recommends M12 bolts and resin!

Lol thanks.

It’s in my garage. Not a load bearing wall but supporting the roof.

I’ve never used raw plug resin

Is there a minimum size the beam needs to be or just something similar to what’s up already
