Abstract
A cantilever assembly includes a cantilever arm having longitudinal fastening channels and slots in communication with the fastening channels. The assembly also includes an attachment bracket featuring a first leg portion and a second leg portion defining a seat there between with the leg portions featuring apertures. Bolts having threaded shafts are positioned through the apertures of the attachment bracket and engage the threaded bores of nut plates positioned in the fastening channels of the cantilever arm. As a result, when the bolts are turned, the nut plates engage side walls of the fastening channels and the distal ends of the bolts engage a central pipe portion of the cantilever arm.
