Abstract
A connector selectively connects at least two support structures to provide a larger, rigid support structure. The connector includes a body portion from which extends downward a center support portion. A pair of outer sleeves extend downwardly from the body portion on opposite sides of the center support portion, each outer sleeve extending downwardly less than the center support portion. In use, the outer sleeves are inserted through openings in the support structures into the feet of the support structures. The body portion rests on the decks of the support structures and the center support portion extend downward from the body portion between the support structures. The center support portion is sized to extend to the floor when the connector is connected to the support structures.
