Bearing plate of an integrated construction system
Various implementations described herein are directed to a load bearing ledger fitting, a modular header beam, a perimeter safety deck, a multi-purpose bearing plate, and a mega-shore bearing plate of an integrated construction system.
ROOF PLATFORM CONFIGURED FOR USE ON AN INCLINED ROOF
Implementations of a roof platform configured for use on an inclined roof are provided. In some implementations, the roof platform is adjustable so that the platform thereof can be positioned in a horizontal orientation even when mounted on a pitched (or inclined) roof. In this way, equipment (e.g., an air conditioning unit, satellite dish, solar panel(s), etc.) may be positioned on the platform and thereby the roof of a building. In some implementations, the roof platform assembly may comprise a platform that includes two leg couplings affixed to a front side thereof, four tubular legs stabilized by braces, and four pitch adjustable feet configured to be affixed to a roof. Another example implementation of the roof platform assembly may comprise a platform that includes four leg couplings, four tubular legs stabilized by pairs of adjustable braces, and four pitch adjustable feet configured to be affixed to a roof.

A Safety System
A safety system (1) for scaffolding on a construction site having a plurality of elongate scaffolding elements (5) connected together by a plurality of couplers (7) to form a scaffolding structure (2). One or more elements connected to one or more base plates supporting the structure on a surface. At least two safety monitors (10) spaced apart about said structure. Each said monitor having a power source, a sensor and a transmitter. The sensor sensing movement in said structure and transmitting a signal to a receiver to indicate movement in the structure.
Strand grab and ladder including the same
A strand grab includes a frame including a mounting portion and a hook portion having a first end attached to the mounting portion and extending in an arc shape to a second end, a gate member rotatably attached to the mounting portion, a jaw member rotatably attached to the mounting portion, and a connector member coupled between the gate member and the jaw member. The gate member, the jaw member, and the connector member are operatively coupled such that when the gate member rotates toward the first end of the hook portion, the connector member causes the jaw member to rotate toward the first end of the hook portion.

Brake/ballast assembly for a movable structure
A brake/ballast assembly for a movable structure. The brake/ballast assembly includes a movable brake/ballast plate movable between a movable brake/ballast plate first position in which the movable brake/ballast plate is positioned proximate the fixed member and a movable brake/ballast plate second position in which the movable brake/ballast plate is spaced from the fixed member. An engagement member is connected to the movable brake/ballast plate. The engagement member is movable between an engagement member first position and an engagement member second position. When the engagement member is in the engagement member first position, the movable brake/ballast plate is provided in the movable brake/ballast plate first position allowing the movable structure to be moved along a surface, when the engagement member is in the engagement member second position, the movable brake/ballast plate is provided in the movable brake/ballast plate second position preventing the movable structure from moving relative to the surface.
Six degrees of freedom anchoring device and method for robotic installation
An apparatus has an anchor shaft with a distal end configured to be embedded into a selected anchor location. A base plate has an aperture to receive the anchor shaft. A mounting ring surrounds the aperture. An inner collar is adjustably mounted on the mounting ring. A lower bearing seat is positioned in the inner collar. A spherical bearing is positioned in the lower bearing seat. The spherical bearing engages a proximal end of the anchor shaft. An upper bearing seat is positioned over the spherical bearing. An outer collar is mounted on the inner collar. The upper bearing seat, the spherical bearing, and the lower bearing seat are compressed between the outer collar and the inner collar, such that the anchor shaft is selectably mounted to the base plate and has six degrees of configurable positions.
