Support platform assembly
A support platform assembly is disclosed. The support platform assembly provides a level surface on which a ladder can be supported, and includes an extendable platform, a first set of legs and a second set of legs. The extendable platform includes a first plate having a flat top surface and a second plate having a flat top surface, the second plate being slidable relative to the first plate between a retracted position and an extended position such that a length of the platform increases as the second plate slides from the retracted position to the extended position. The first set of legs are pivotably coupled to a bottom surface of the first plate, and the second set of legs are pivotably coupled to a bottom surface of the second plate, the first and second sets of legs being configured to vertically support the platform.
SCAFFOLD EXTENSIONS
An apparatus and method for manufacturing and using segmented and integrated solutions for scaffold extensions are disclosed. An example embodiment comprises: a standard scaffold support component including at least one post element; and a scaffold extension including a runner element and a bracing element coupled to the post element of the standard scaffold support component to produce a modified scaffold support component with a scaffold extension. The scaffold extension can be a one-sided scaffold extension or a two-sided scaffold extension. The scaffold extension can be coupled to the post element of the standard scaffold support component with a hinged and swingable coupling. The scaffold extension can be integrated into the post element of the standard scaffold support component. The scaffold extension can be integrated into a retrofit scaffold support component configured to be coupled to the standard scaffold support component.
VOID PLATFORM AND A METHOD FOR PROVIDING A PLATFORM SUPPORT ACROSS A BUILDING VOID
A support strut for a void platform providing support across a building void is disclosed including an elongate support member having two opposed ends and floor mounting brackets mounted on each end. Each floor mounting bracket includes a hollow tube forming a mounting formation for mounting on the support member, and an angle section, including a wall plate on which the tube is located and a transverse flange, for mounting on an external support. The flange of one floor mounting bracket is positioned uppermost for extending across an upper surface of a bottom plate of a wall frame, and the other horizontal mounting bracket is inverted so that the flange is positioned lowermost for extending across a floor adjacent to the void. A void platform including a support strut and a deck joiner bracket is also disclosed.
Interlocking Work Platform System and Method
A work platform system having a first work platform. The system having a first bracket attached to the first scaffold and extending below and outward beyond the first scaffold between the first rail and the second rail of the first leg assembly. The system having a second bracket attached to the first scaffold and extending below and outward beyond the first scaffold between the first rail and the second rail of the first leg assembly. The system having a second work platform. The first end of the second scaffold is disposed on the first bracket and the second bracket with the first bracket and the second bracket extending between the first rung of the third leg assembly and the second scaffold. A method for using a work platform system.
Scaffold with an automatic installation characteristic
An automatic scaffold for reaching buildings during construction, repair, dyeing, coating, and maintenance. The automatic scaffold includes a scaffold module which has a stack of module layers. Movable columns open the scaffold modules by a drive unit so as to generate a distance between the module layers, wherein the distance is approximately of 2-meter height in which one person can comfortably work, and wherein the movable columns are respectively an outer carrier column which carries the scaffold module upwardly with the movement generated by the drive unit, and an inner movable column which is located inside the outer carrier column and linked to the outer carrier column via a control rod of the drive unit. Each module layer has vertical and horizontal rods, a carrier plate, and guide elements for fixing the vertical rods to the carrier plate.
Methods and apparatuses for temporary floor assembly
Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for removably deploying a floor assembly from a compacted state to a deployed state by varying tensioning forces to removably interconnected individual floor segments.

Inboard-mounted safety latch mechanism for preventing a walkway platform flip door from being raised without a guardrail installed
In an example, a system is described. The system includes a guardrail having a post, and the post having a post dog. The system also includes a latch eye configured to be coupled to a flip door. The system also comprises a safety latch mechanism configured to be coupled to a fixed structure and including a body, a socket configured to receive the post, and a door latch rotatably coupled to the body and biased in a latched position that is configured to engage with the latch eye and thereby retain the flip door in a lowered position. Based on the post being inserted into the socket of the safety latch mechanism, the post dog engages with and rotates the door latch from the latched position to an unlatched position, thereby allowing the flip door to be raised from the lowered position to a raised position.
Work platforms and methods of use
A work platform configured to support one or more workers in proximity to a workpiece. The work platform includes sliders that are aligned along the length of the workpiece. The sliders are laterally movable towards and away from the workpiece. The sliders are individually movable with a position of each of the sliders relative to the workpiece being a function of the rotational position of the workpiece.
