A post connection adapter for detachably fastening a scaffolding post to a support includes a fastening body having first and second fastening-body fasteners in first and second fastening-body fastening positions, respectively, and detachably fastenable to the support selectively by the first or second fastener. The first and second positions have a fastening position distance between each other of 72 mm. The post connection adapter includes a post connection body extending toward the post connection body axis and fastened to the fastening body. An imaginary center plane containing an imaginary center point between the first and second positions is offset by 20 mm perpendicular to the center plane and to the post connection body axis, with respect to a post connection body axis plane extending parallel to the center plane and containing the post connection body axis. A device has two identical post connection adapters detachably fastened to a support.

A hand railing system for attaching a scaffolding hand rail to a scaffolding pick includes a platform that is removably coupled between a pair of scaffolds. Thus, the platform may support a user thereby facilitating the user to walk between the pair of scaffolds. A plurality of mounts is provided and each of the mounts removably engages the platform. Each of the mounts is oriented to extend upwardly from the platform. Additionally, each of the mounts receives a pole of a handrail thereby facilitating the handrail to extend along an entire length of the platform.

A temporary shield erected between two flanged structural members of a bridge or other structure, a kit therefor, and a method for erection of the shield. A plurality of length-adjustable beams have end portions which are rested on flanges respectively of the structural members. Decking is attached to the beams. At least one elongate member is cantileverly extended from at least one of the beams to underlie a structural member flange to prevent wind lift up of the shield.

A spindle strut comprises a support rod element which is elongated in the direction of a longitudinal axis and has a first axial end portion and a second axial end portion, a spindle nut element which can be rotated about the longitudinal axis with respect to the support rod element, wherein the spindle nut element is held at the first axial end portion of the support rod element in both axial directions against axial movement with respect to the support rod element, so that rotation of the spindle nut element about the longitudinal axis essentially does not result in an axial movement of the spindle nut element with respect to the support rod element, a spindle rod element which is elongated in the direction of the longitudinal axis, wherein the spindle rod element is in threaded engagement with the spindle nut element, so that rotation of the spindle nut element about the longitudinal axis results in an axial movement of the spindle rod element with respect to the support rod element.

A clamping assembly for communication with beam members is provided. Clamping assemblies of the present disclosure are useful for attaching to various beams including, but not limited to, concrete I-beams. The clamping assemblies are useful for supporting a beam prior to complete installation of the beam in its intended location. Risk associated with beam movement, tipping and falling is mitigated by embodiments of the present disclosure.

A suspended scaffold comprises a work platform (6) and at least one suspending device (2) via which the work platform (6) is attachable to an object (1). The suspending device (2) comprises a claw device (3) intended and configured to engage optionally directly on the object (1), and a coupling device (4). The claw device (3) is adjustable relative to the coupling device (4) between a first position (21) and a second position (22). The second position (22) lies spatially offset relative to the first position (21).

Improvements in a dual platform for a composite power pole is disclosed. The platform. The stepup is a two-tiered aerial working platform that be attached to an upright member such as an electrical power pole, it can be mounted at any put the lineman or worker in the best possible working position and allows a lineman to step up or down in a manner that they are accustomed. The dual platform wraps partially around the pole so a worker can safely step around pole without fear of a misstep. The platforms exist at a neutral angle to increase standing comfort. The platforms are nestable whereby platforms can be strapped to opposite sides of pole. This allows a worker to install multiple platforms to make a ladder to climb the pole or to create a platform around the circumference of the pole or a circumferential staircase.

There is provided a railing post adaptor for a roof support apparatus. The roof support apparatus comprises an elongate member having a plurality of longitudinal sides. The railing post adaptor comprises a roof support apparatus connector for securing the railing post adaptor to the roof support apparatus. The roof support apparatus connector comprises a first connection portion arranged to engage, in use, with a first set of the plurality of longitudinal sides, and a second connection portion, movably mounted to the first connection portion and arranged to engage, in use, with a second set of the plurality of longitudinal sides, the second set being different from the first set. The roof support apparatus connector further comprises a railing connection portion extending from the roof support apparatus connector for detachably securing a proximal end of a railing post to the roof support apparatus via the railing post adaptor. The first set and the second set each comprise at least two longitudinal sides. The first connection portion and the second connection portion are together configured to substantially prevent rotation of the railing post adapter about a longitudinal axis of the elongate member by engagement with the first set and second set of longitudinal sides.

Disclosed is a rollable platform that may be unfurled in any orientation over exposed floor or ceiling joists. The platform may be constructed of a specific arrangement of support surface panels and underside joint panels to give the platform both (a) rigidity in a direction that is normal to the support surface via gridlock between the support surface panels and (b) foldability and/or rollability in a direction that is normal to the underside joint panels due to hinged interconnection.
