ABSTRACT:
An anchoring apparatus for securing a truss member to a concrete structural member includes a U-shaped member including an elongate plate bent end to end to form a curved portion and two leg portions, an abutment plate including a pair of spaced apart, parallel slots, so that when the apparatus is to be assembled, the leg portions of the U-shaped member are fitted through the parallel slots to protrude through the abutment plate, and a structure for anchoring the abutment plate to the U-shaped member, including tabs cut and bent out of the U-shaped member and oriented generally toward the curved portion of the U-shaped member, for engaging the abutment plate, so that the abutment plate slots ride along the leg portions and over the tabs, and the tabs block the abutment plate against moving back along the leg portions. The apparatus may alternatively include a substantially U-shaped member including an elongate plate bent end to end in the form of a curved portion and two leg portions, each leg portion including an abutment plate engaging slot, an abutment plate sized to fit between the leg portions and including two abutment plate ends, each abutment plate end including a leg portion engaging structure for anchoring the abutment plate to the U-shaped member.
