A scaffold transom, particularly for the horizontally oriented installation in a scaffold section, the scaffold transom comprising at least one transom support which is rod-shaped and extends in the direction of a longitudinal axis, the transom support having two opposing ends in the direction of the longitudinal axis, and a connection interface being located at each of these two ends, which connection interface is provided for the connection to a scaffold element, at least two brackets which each extend along a bracket axis, the brackets each having two opposing ends in the direction of their bracket axis, one of said ends of each bracket being connected to the transom support, and at least two closures respectively one of which is located at the end of a bracket opposite of the connection of said bracket to the transom support.

This publication relates to a tubular transom in particular for temporary structures, such as scaffolding or false work and similar structure, having ends configured to be connected to verticals at node sections arranged at intervals on the verticals. Each end of the transom comprises a fastening device with an integrated profile part, releasably attached to the tubular transom in an opening at the ends of the tubular transom. The transom comprises a first and at least second elongate, parallel and hollow tube elements, interconnected at least at each end by intermediate integrated web plates, rigidly fixed to said at least two tube elements. A contact surface of the opening in the first tube, is transversally arranged relative to one or more web plates. A contact surface of the opening in the second tube is transversally arranged relative to one or more web plates. The opening at the ends of the transom having at least partly a complimentary shape.

A scaffold system for supporting workers includes a plurality of end frames including a pair of uprights joined by an overhead cross bar for supporting planks thereon. The end frames are stacked top-to-bottom to form end frame columns and are laterally secured together to form an exterior framework. The scaffold system also includes interior posts coupled vertically end-to-end so as to form interior columns, with pairs of interior columns being secured to each end frame column between the vertical uprights of the end frames. Side rails are mounted to the interior posts extending between the pairs of interior posts. Planks are supported on the overhead cross bars, extending between adjacent end frames, and are bounded at their ends by the pairs of interior posts to form a work space and/or walkway for workers of a reduced size or area.

A scaffolding crossbar having at least two, in particular at least three crossbar coupling elements at one end. The crossbar coupling elements can be designed to be the same. The crossbar coupling elements are designed preferably in the form of receiving openings. The crossbar coupling elements serve to detachably secure diagonal piece coupling elements. The scaffolding according to the invention, having a scaffolding crossbar of this type, has a diagonal scaffolding piece with a first diagonal piece coupling element at one end and a second diagonal piece coupling element at the other end. The first diagonal piece coupling element can be designed differently from the second diagonal piece coupling element, wherein the crossbar coupling elements are designed preferably for connecting both diagonal piece coupling elements. The scaffolding can thereby be designed such that it is optionally partially or completely particularly torsion resistant.

A sidewalk shed and system includes a plurality of columns and a plurality of major beams. Each column includes one to four column face plate assemblies, based on the application, for attachment to major beams. Each column face plate assembly comprises a column face plate, trapezoidal-shaped top and bottom gussets, and a vertical plate support, which in combination support the column face plate in a spaced-apart relation to a column. Major beam face plates attached to the opposing ends of a major beam releasably engage the column face plate assemblies using fasteners. Minor beams span opposing major beams. The minor beams may support other sidewalk shed structures, such as decking, parapets, lighting, signage, and other scaffolding.
