ABSTRACT:
An assembly (10) for supporting a post (12) with respect to an aperture (14) in concrete (16) includes first and second opposed surfaces (32). Each of the surfaces (32) has one end shaped to fixedly engage an end of the post (12). Each of the surfaces (32) has a second end extending longitudinally beyond the end of the post (12). The extending ends of the surfaces (32) are configured to enter the aperture (14) and have opposed camming shapes (38 and 44) which wedge the extending ends of surfaces (32) into tight engagement with the aperture (14) as the extending ends move further into the aperture (14). The method includes providing such an assembly, driving the assembly to position one end of the surfaces (32) against the post (12) and the extending end into aperture (14), so that the camming surfaces (38 and 44) push the extending end of the surfaces (32) against the aperture (14). The surfaces (32) are then fixedly attached to opposing sides (24 and 26) of the post (12) by screws (22).
