ABSTRACT:
An adjustable column connector apparatus which provides for quick, easy and accurate installation of columns during building construction. The apparatus includes an inner connector member with a threaded socket, and an outer member with a corresponding threaded body which mates with the threaded socket. The inner connector member is attached to a column end by screws. The threaded body is engaged in the threaded socket, and the outer connector member is rotatably attached to an adjacent structure by a lag which slidably fits within a slot in the outer connector member. The outer connector member is rotated relative to the inner connector member to advance or retract the threaded body within the threaded socket and correspondingly draw down or push away the adjacent structure relative to the column end.
