摘要: A modular framing system has a plurality of spanning members, at least some of which are hollow and have a predetermined nominal wall thickness, fasteners, and a plurality of joiners that are each securable to two or more of the hollow spanning members. Each joiner has connection portions, and at least one web portion that interconnects an adjacent pair of the connection portions, and has a minimum thickness that is greater than the predetermined nominal wall thickness of the hollow spanning members. Each connection portion has through holes for fasteners to secure the joiner to spanning members. The web portion spaces the respective adjacent pair of connection portions, and spanning members secured to the adjacent pair of connection portions are non-parallel and lie in a common plane.

摘要: A system for supporting a non-structural building component beneath a soffit of a building. The system has a plurality of suspension assemblies that each have a first elongate non-rigid member, and at least one second elongate non-rigid member. The first elongate non-rigid member is secured at an upper end to a structural portion of the building at a first location, and at a lower end to one of: the non-structural building component, or a support member to which the non-structural building component is secured. The second elongate non-rigid member that is secured at a lower end to one of: the non-structural building component, or the support member to which the non-structural building component is secured, and at an upper end to a structural portion of the building at a second location. The first elongate non-rigid member is oriented substantially vertically. The second location is horizontally spaced from the first location, such that the second elongate non-rigid member is inclined to vertical. When the building is in a stable condition, the tensile force in the first elongate non-rigid member is greater than the vertical component of the tensile force in the second elongate non-rigid member.
