An improved connector and connection formed with a seat member that is stiffened by first and second reinforcing flanges and first, second and third back wall members. When used as a hanger, the connector includes a seat member, first, second and third backwall members which are connected to a supporting girder and first and second side members are connected to the seat member. First, second, third and fourth flange arms integrally connected to the third back wall member are connected to up to four supported wood trusses or supported wood framing members which rest on the seat member.
