US 2019/0376625 A1 · ATTACHMENT DEVICE FOR A NON-STRUCTURAL COMPONENT OF A BUILDING

Abstract

An attachment device for securing a non-structural component of a building to a structural component of the building includes an attachment device member configured to be attached to the non-structural component and to partially surround the non-structural component. A fastening component forms a connection between the non-structural component and the attachment device member. The connection does not compress the non-structural component and inhibits movement of the non-structural component relative to the attachment device member. An attachment component is coupled to the attachment device member and attaches to the structural component for securing the non-structural component to the structural component via the attachment device member.
