Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A structural member connection and method is disclosed for quickly securing/unsecuring pipe connections wherein the respective pipes are typically in orthogonal relationship with each other. The pipes to be connected may be of different diameter and/or cross-sectional shape. The connection includes at least one preferably fitted pipe strap member for each pipe and at least four fasteners with one fastener being located in each quadrant formed by the orthogonal intersection of two pipes. The pipe strap member is selected to mate to the diameter pipe used. In the alternative, U-bolt members selected to mate to the respective pipes may be used in place of one set of pipe straps. Tubular standoffs may be used in conjunction with the fasteners to provide adjustable clamping strength.
