Disclosed is a connector for connecting first and second timber structural members together. The connector mounts to a face of the first structural member and receives at least a portion of the second structural member. The connector includes a lip portion and an at least one projection. The projection is forced into tacking engagement with the first structural member, causing the connector to be tacked in place. The tacking engagement is effected when the lip is placed into an underlapping association with a bottom surface of the first structural member the connector undergoes at least one of a) a pivoting the connector about the lip at the underlapping association of the lip with the bottom surface and b) a movement of the connector towards the first structural member and parallel with its bottom surface. The tacking engagement holds the connector in its placed orientation relative to the first structural member.
