A joist hanging apparatus includes a rigid body forming a support region, a joist contact region and a first pair of opposing flanges. The flanges and joist contact region form a first U-shaped region for positioning a joist therebetween, wherein an edge of the joist coupled to the contact region is level with a support beam when the support region rests on the support beam. In a related method for mounting joists, a top edge of a joist is mounted within a U-shaped region formed by a monolithic rigid body. An end of the rigid body rests upon a support beam, the top edge of the joist level with the top of the support beam, and an end of the joist flush with a side of the beam. A joist hanger is mounted with the support beam, around a bottom edge of the joist, and the rigid body is removed from the joist and the support beam.
