ABSTRACT:
A nailable hollow structural member comprising an elongated hollow member of sheet metal formed to define opposed clamping walls and end walls spaced apart between the clamping walls. The clamping walls extend in substantially parallel planes. An elongated boss is formed in each of the clamping walls and extends longitudinally of the tubular member in alignment with one another. One of the clamping walls and one of the end walls has a connectable portion opposed to one another. Spacer means is provided for maintaining one of the clamping walls in juxtaposition with a clamping wall of another hollow member and spaced apart by the spacer means to form an elongated opening between the hollow member constituting a nail receiving slot. Means are also provided for movably securing two or more of the hollow members with the clamping walls juxtaposed. The elongated boss in both of the clamping walls deforms a nail inserted in the slot to retain it therein.
