Abstract
An upright connection including a rigid one-piece connector for joining an upright supported member to a support structure having a support surface and an angularly related edge surface. The connector includes an elongated rigid back member which is connected to the angularly related edge surface of the support structure and in combination with side members, encapsulates the upright supported member. Fasteners inserted through openings in flange members connected to the side members attach the connector to the support surface, and fasteners inserted through openings in the side members attach the upright supported member to the connector. The connection is used primarily in connecting guard rail posts to a wood deck structure.
