Abstract
An assembly for connecting together a pair of structural members disposed in end-to-end relation includes a bridging member having an irregular surface and securing devices for securing the bridging member to the structural members. Each structural member includes a bore with a complementary surface which mates with the irregular surface of the bridging member. The securing devices place the irregular surface of the bridging member in abutting relation with the complementary surfaces of the structural members.
