Each of the wedge segments has an internal profile. The member is inserted through the access opening into the cavity of the body, the wedge segments of the split wedge are positioned circumferentially around the member and then the split wedge is wedged in the cavity to maintain the external profile of the member engaged with the internal profile of the wedge segments of the split wedge.

Wire tray and mounting insert assemblies

This publication describes techniques and apparatuses for releasably attaching an object (e.g., a wire tray) to a substrate. Current apparatuses generally do not enable the removal of an attached wire tray from a substrate without first removing an insert from a mounting stud extending from the substrate. The disclosed techniques and apparatuses are configured to permit the removal of an attached wire tray from a substrate without first removing an insert from a mounting stud extending from the substrate.

CAST-IN PLACE ANCHOR WITH LOCKABLE JAW ASSEMBLY

An anchor assembly is disclosed for suspending objects to a concrete structure. The assembly includes an anchor housing having a jaw assembly therein and a opening for receiving an anchor member such as a threaded rod. The jaw assembly includes threaded rods having a threaded opening, a wood form anchor assembly and a metal decking anchor assembly. The wood form and the metal decking anchor assemblies may accommodate the anchor housing and the anchor housing is used in one of the wood form anchor assembly and the metal decking anchor assembly. The metal decking anchor assembly includes a nose-piece and the anchor housing is selectively connectable to the nose-piece via a locking connection such as a bayonet connection.
