ABSTRACT:
A framing bracket for use in forming wall to wall connections such as "Tee" and "Corner Post" connections in for example house building using wooden building studs and sheet wall construction is comprised of a rectangular base member having a pair of side walls each, side wall connected along a portion of the base plate length. The side walls extend to the approximate central portion of the rectangular base member and provide respectively a pair of connected stop plates which are inwardly depending. The stop plates in combination with the side walls and a portion of the rectangular base plate member form a first partial enclosure for receiving the tip of a conventional building stud thereinto for connection by means of nails or the like. Typically, the upper or lower longitudinal stud of a framed stud wall will occupy this first partial enclosure during a "Tee" or "corner post" connection. (See FIGS. 5 and 6). A tie plate is attached to the end portion of the base plate opposite the first partial enclosure and forms a second partial enclosure between the tie plate and the central stop plate. The second enclosure forms a place typically for the attachment of a wall of sheet material such as gypsum board, wall board, sheetrock, or the like. Alternatively, the second partial enclosure can accommodate a longitudely running building stud and an abutting sheet of wall material, as when the framing bracket forms the top plate tie in "Tee" or "corner post" connections.
