Abstract:

The framing fastener is made up of a configuration of plates used to attach any number of posts and beams to each other or to a base material. The framing fastener may include a substantially flat first plate with at least one hole extending there through and a substantially flat second plate with a hook formed at one edge thereof. The first and second plates are attached together such that the first and second plates are substantially coplanar or substantially perpendicular. The first plate of the framing fastener is attached to a post by means of one or more fastening rods. Then a beam is attached to the second plate of the framing fastener by means of one or more fastening rods, one of which rests in the hook.
