Abstract (en)

The present invention relates to a load bearing bracket 10 for coupling a first wall 46 to a second wall 48. The bracket 10 comprises an arm 11 having a load bearing surface 19 and a stop 16 located adjacent the load bearing surface 19; and a support member 24 having first and second limbs 26, 28, the first and second limbs 26, 28 preferably defining an obtuse angle therebetween. The first limb 26 is shaped and dimensioned for abutment against the load bearing surface 19 and against the stop 16. The load bearing surface 19 is disposed such that, in use, the second limb 28 is substantially horizontally disposed. The stop 16 is preferably shaped and dimensioned to receive a rim 37 of the first limb 26, and to substantially prevent the outward displacement of the first limb 26 from the load bearing surface 19. The stop 16 is also preferably shaped and dimensioned to enable the rim 37 of the first limb 26 to be engaged therewith, and the support member 24 to be moved about said rim 37 in order to bring the first limb 26 into register with the load bearing surface 19. <IMAGE>
