ABSTRACT:
A support frame assembly is provided for supporting drainage channel sections adjoined in an end-to-end relationship and for anchoring the drainage channel sections to a support surface. The support frame assembly includes a pair of substantially vertical legs and a channel support piece mounted to the upper end portion of each of the legs for supporting the drainage channel sections. The support frame assembly also includes a cross member extending between the lower end portions of the legs at a position below the channel support pieces. In one embodiment, a pair of aligned openings are provided in the cross member and one of the legs so that an anchor member can be driven through the openings and enter the support surface at an acute angle relative thereto. In another embodiment, hinge members are provided between the cross member and the legs so that the cross member can be oriented to sit flat on a sloped surface. Associated methods also form a part of the invention.
