ABSTRACT:
When constructing walls beneath suspended ceilings of the type including T-bars, the usual practice is to connect C-shaped channel members directly to the T-bars. If the walls are disassembled or moved, unsightly holes remain in the exposed bottom surfaces of the T-bars. A simple connector for solving the problem includes a strip of material which, in use, includes a generally inverted U-shaped central portion for straddling the top stem of the T-bar, and a pair of arms perpendicular to the central portion for extending outwardly beyond the arms of the T-bar into overlapping relationship with the channel member. Screws are used to connect the device to the T-bar and to the channel member. Thus, the T-bar remains intact and undamaged.
