ABSTRACT:
An alignment bracket assembly for holding and aligning a fire sprinkler supply pipe in a horizontal or vertical orientation relative to a pair of spaced apart building members such as joists, studs or T-bar suspended ceiling frame supports comprises a central member of non-circular cross-section, preferably square, and a pair of end members in telescoping sliding engagement at opposite ends of the central member. The end members each have attachment devices at their free ends for securing them to respective spaced building members. A pipe holding bracket is slidably mounted on the central member and has a pair of arms projecting from the central member for engaging opposite faces of the fire sprinkler pipe between them. The arms can be urged towards one another to grip the fire sprinkler pipe to maintain it in a vertical or horizontal orientation and reduce the risk of displacement or misalignment of the fire sprinkler head during ceiling installation.
