Summary:A bracketing system is provided having two brackets joined by an adhesive material that allows a bridge backing member to be mounted between vertical studs to enhance stability of the wall construction. A wall construction assembly according to an embodiment of the invention comprises two vertical studs and a bridge backing member mounted there between by a bracketing system, which includes a left bracket and a right bracket connected by a flexible adhesive material. The bridge backing member has curved flanges that are shorter in length than the web of the bridge backing member. This bridge backing member can then hook securely over the brackets, and abut the vertical studs. The hooking of the bridge backing member of the brackets and shorter flanges allows the bridge backing member to rest on the brackets without the installer having to manually hold the bridge backing member between the studs prior to attachment.
