An adjustable load bolt adapter bracket assembly for use with a sway brace in securing a bracing element between a fluid pipeline and a structure to anchor the pipeline to the structure and limit relative movement therebetween. The assembly comprises an attachment member and an adapter plate. The attachment member includes a flat plate portion having an upstanding lateral wall adjacent one end thereof, at least one fastener receiving aperture therein, a bracing element receiving member pivotedly mounted on the lateral end wall and a plurality of locking channels in the opposite sides and one end thereof. The adapter plate defines a plurality of spaced fastener receiving apertures axially aligned therein and a locking tab extending from one side thereof and one end thereof. Alternative, the locking channels can be provided in one end and one side of the adapter plate and the locking tabs in the opposite ends of the plate portion of the attachment member. By selectively disposing one of the locking tabs within one of the locking channels, the plate is interlocked with the attachment member for increasing the available fastener receiving apertures for use in securing the bracing element to a fixed structure to increase the strength of the securement to meet different seismic codes and the footprint of the interlocked elements can be varied to fit on the available space on the fixed structure to which the bracket assembly is to be secured.
