Abstract: A demountable bracket for use in erection of a structure, wherein the structure is assembled employing load supporting timbers, the timbers being of generally uniform cross-sectional shape. The bracket comprises a horizontal elongated non-load bearing connecting member having opposed first and second ends. A first short-length inner channel member is integrally secured to the connecting member first end. A second short-length inner channel member is integrally secured to the connecting member second end, the channel axii of the first and second channel members being in a first common plane with the elongated connecting member. A third short-length outer channel member is secured to the first channel member on a side thereof opposite the connecting member.

Abstract: A demountable firewood storage rack formed of two length-defining timbers, four upright height-defining timbers and two metal brackets. Each of the brackets has a horizontal elongated connecting member having a first and second end, the first end having a first short-length inner tubular channel member and, welded to it on a side thereof opposite the connecting member, an outer short-length tubular member. The inner tubular members of each bracket are aligned in a common horizontal plane and the outer tubular members in a common vertical plane. The storage rack is assembled by inserting each end of each of the length-defining timbers into a horizontally oriented tubular member of a bracket so that the length-defining members and the brackets form a rectangle with four upwardly extending tubular members. The four upright timbers are removably inserted in the tubular members to form a rack on which firewood can be stored.
