Abstract: An end cover assembly for a hollow structural member is disclosed. The end cover assembly has a cylindrical sleeve having at least one pair of through holes disposed in a radial surface of the cylindrical sleeve. The at least one pair of through holes are aligned with each other. The end cover assembly also has a plate member fixedly connected to an end of the cylindrical sleeve. The end cover assembly further has a securing device with at least one rod member and at least one locking mechanism. The at least one rod member is configured for insertion through the at least one pair of through holes. The locking mechanism is configured for removable connection to a first end of the at least one rod member to secure the end cover assembly to an end of the hollow structural member.
