An apparatus for suspended scaffolding, comprising a Z-shaped anchoring plate comprised of a first horizontally protruding element, a second opposable protruding element, and said elements continuously coupled to each other via a vertical middle element, wherein the Z-shaped plate is configured to securely cover at least portions of a top wall, inner wall of a parapet, and a roof; at least one threaded rod with torqued nut anchored through at least one of the vertical element and/or the first element of the anchoring plate and through at least one of the top wall, inner wall, and/or outer wall of the parapet; an L-shaped receiver plate secured over at least a portion of the top wall and outer wall of the parapet and rod-nut anchored to the anchoring plate, wherein the receiver plate is configured to secure a suspended scaffold for a user to engage a façade of a structure in any direction; and a counterweight securely rested on a top surface of the second element in order to counter the weight of the suspended scaffold.

A collapsible and portable road sign platform, comprising: a) a square or rectangular platform base portion; b) a square or rectangular platform frame portion comprising a plurality of platform frame members; c) a left platform bracket portion and a right platform bracket portion; and d) a safety railing portion comprising a plurality of safety railing frame members, wherein the left platform bracket portion and/or the right platform bracket portion are/is adjustable, and wherein the road sign platform is capable of being affixed off the ground to a pair of wood posts.

A standing seam mounting bracket and a method of using two or three to provide attachment points along a standing seam roof is provided. The standing seam mounting brackets enable complementary use of commonly-owned equipment for enabling roof maintenance and construction. The standing seam mounting brackets may be used in concert with roof jacks, roof ladders, scaffolding members and the like that are commonly owned by most contractors so as to facilitate safe and easy horizontal and vertical movement along the sloped roof.

A suspended scaffold assembly for mounting a scaffold. The suspended scaffold assembly comprises a plurality of horizontally-spaced-apart vertical support members comprising a suspension cable with at least one coupling ring secured thereto and at least one horizontal member. Each one of the at least one horizontal member is removably connectable to a respective one of the at least one coupling ring of two spaced-apart ones of the plurality of vertical support members. A vertical support member for a suspended scaffold assembly, a kit for mounting a suspended scaffold assembly and a method for mounting same are also provided.

This invention relates generally to systems and methods for delivering a tree hunter, arborist, nature photographer, or anyone else that spends considerable time in trees, the ability to create a solid platform from which to stand on and/or maneuver around while aloft in a tree. More specifically, employing a unique lashing system of rope and cam strap, the novel platform is stable, easy to install and uninstall, and is non-damaging to a tree unlike prior art alternatives.

A collar mount for a base station monopole has a plurality of pressure members that surround the monopole. Threaded members are connected between adjacent pressure members to tighten the pressure members against the monopole. Pressure plates of the pressure members have a forward edge configured to engage the monopole at a pressure point. A dispersement plate is positioned at the pressure point where the dispersement plate is non-rigidly connected to the pressure plates. A second threaded member may connect the upper pressure plates of each two adjacent pressure members together. Each of the pressure members may include a plurality of pressure plates where the pressure plates have a width direction extending parallel to the monopole and a thickness direction extending perpendicular to the width direction where the width direction is larger than the thickness direction.

A device for use in securing a ladder to a roof for use in attaching roofing panels to the roof or for inspecting panels. The device includes a main body portion having a bottom floor having a plurality of corrugation openings formed therethrough, the corrugation openings sized and configured to straddle corrugations of roofing panels while allowing the bottom floor to lie substantially flat on the panel. A plurality of fastener openings are functionally associated with the bottom floor for use in selectively securing and detaching the main body portion to the roof using roofing fasteners. In embodiments attachment member chambers contain attachment members slidably disposed therein for use in attaching the device to a roof. Methods of using the devices for installing roofing panels and inspecting panel roofs are included.

The disclosure relates to a platform board assembly defining a front, a rear, and two sides and having: a plank having a free end towards the front and a fixed end towards the rear; a T-plate having a bottom extension and a top extension, wherein the bottom extension of the T-plate is connected to the fixed end of the plank; a vertical support member wherein the vertical support member is connected to the top extension of the T-plate; at least one ratchet stop mounted on a first side of the platform board assembly, wherein the ratchet stop is includes: a spool; a ratchet wheel rotatable about the spool; and a pawl configured to engage and disengage with the ratchet wheel; and a flexible connector engaged with the spool.

The present invention relates to a support frame for use with an edge protection system for elevated structures, such as building rooves. The support frame includes a first frame portion and a second frame portion mounted together so as to be axially slidable relative one another between an extended position for locating a post of the edge protection system alongside a roof edge of a building and a retracted position. The support frame further includes a coupling mount extending from an uppermost frame member for coupling to a portion of the building adjacent the roof edge and for receiving and supporting the post in an upright position alongside the roof edge of the building.
