Abstract: A bracket for utilities hangers and sway braces suspended below a fluted deck includes a bracket plate having attachment holes therethrough spaced apart by the known pitch of the fluting on the deck. A mount is positioned in the plate. One or more flute keys extend perpendicular to the mounting plate and have two sides which are tapered away from the plate toward one another to fit within one or more flutes in the deck.

Abstract: A hanger for an I-beam includes two brackets positioned over the lower flange of the I-beam and tied together by tie-rods. The brackets each include a base section with a mounting section at 90° thereto on one side and an engagement section at an obtuse angle on the other. A channel is formed on each bracket to accommodate an edge of the I-beam flange. The tie-rods are juxtaposed with the mounting section and also constrain the head of a bolt extending through the mounting section against rotation. The threaded shaft of the bolt provides an equipment mount for the I-beam.

Abstract: An improved sway brace for use in building structures for securing a fluid pipe line to an elongated bracing element which is anchored to the structure. The sway brace includes a flat generally U-shaped clamping member adapted to extend traversely about the pipe to be braced for securing the pipe to the bracing element. One end of the clamping member has a first aperture extending therethrough adapted to receive the elongated bracing element. The other end thereof is bent backwardly to define an inverted U-shaped configuration having apertures extending therethrough in axial alignment with the first aperture and also being adapted to receive the bracing element. A bolt member extends through and its in threaded engagement with the inverted U-shaped end of the clamping member for bearing against the bracing element and thereby securing the clamping member to the bracing element and the pipe to the building structure so as to limit relative movement therebetween.
