ABSTRACT:
In one exemplar embodiment, a construction hanger for rigidly interconnecting ceiling inverted tee support members and a structural wall channel member is provided, the hanger having a generally U-shaped configuration with a body member and extending depending legs spaced to receive the channel member. The legs are bendable to engage the channel member and securely grip and support the member. In one embodiment, a generally U-shaped gripping means is provided for gripping the inverted tee support member having bendable tabs extending from a generally flat base, the tabs spaced to receive the tee support member and bendable over the flanges of the member to grip it securely. The U-shaped gripping means is pivotally attached to the body member of the hanger.
In another embodiment a pre-formed gripping means is provided having opposing spring clamping members, one spring clamping member having edges depending therefrom which engages one flange of the tee support member to prevent movement along the member and a second spring clamping member just long enough to engage the tee support member and having a plurality of teeth to prevent movement after engaging the other flange of the tee support member. A novel wall structure and method of wall construction utilizing the hanger is also disclosed.
