Abstract

A securing device for securing a wall to an I-beam. The securing device includes two members that coupled to the sides of an I-beam and are secured together so as to couple the securing device to the I-beam. The two members define a surface that is spaced from the bottom surface of the I-beam that can receive fasteners and the thickness of the two member is such that ordinary fasteners can be used to secure a wall component to the two members of the securing device thereby reducing the need to drill, weld or otherwise attach wall members directly to the I-beam.
