ABSTRACT:
An assembly for performing a header connection which includes a pair of vertically extending stud members each having a pre-determined depth and a side which includes two vertically extending edges, the stud members being oriented in space parallel relation with the sides opposed to each other. Each of the sides includes a pair of projecting generally parallel first flanges which are spaced apart from each other a distance less than the depth of the stud members, and which are positioned offset inwardly from the edges. A header member has two ends and a body portion which extends between the ends, and each of the ends has a pair of longitudinally projecting generally parallel space second flanges which are formed to engage the first flanges in lapping relation offset inwardly from the edges of the stud member sides. A fastening arrangement is provided for fastening the first flanges to the second flanges, whereby the header member can be mounted between the stud members and the first and second flanges are offset inwardly from the edges.
