A method for demolishing a building, where the building comprises a building base placed in proximity of a ground, or placed on the ground, and an opposite building top or temporary building top arranged away from the building base, as well as building floors. The equipment used in the method includes a platform adapted to be positioned against the top of the building, avoiding ground support devices which extend from the platform to the base of the building or the ground surrounding the building. The platform includes at least one working scaffold adapted to be arranged along the periphery of the building and to face at least one floor of said building. The working scaffold is supported, hung, on the platform so that it descends along the side wall of the building to border the works for demolishing the building.

The present invention provides an adjustable tower platform for attachment to a monopole. According to a preferred embodiment, the present invention includes a first, second and third exterior face pipes which are attached together at each end to support one or more corner platforms. According to further preferred embodiments, the present invention includes a first, second and third corner platforms which are attached between each pair of face pipes by angle brackets. According to a further preferred embodiment, each of the corner platforms are preferably undergirded by side arm joists which are further connected to central connection plates. According to a further preferred embodiment, the invention preferably further includes a first, second and third connection plates which are bolted together to form a ring mount which suspends the tower platform on a monopole at a given height.

A prop-brace coupler has a first section configured to be selectively connected to a vertical prop member of a construction platform that includes a vertical spacing member and a diagonal bracing member. The prop-brace coupler also has a second section configured to be selectively connected to the vertical spacing member and to the diagonal bracing member.

A scaffold rack may have a first side and a second side. An upright portion may be located between the two sides. The first side may have at least one pair of scaffold frame tubes adapted to selectively secure at least scaffold frame. The second side may have a first arm adapted to selectively support at least one walkboard thereon and a second arm adapted to selectively support at least one scaffold bracket thereon.

A scaffold that is quick and easy to assemble while still implementing safety measures. The scaffold can include end caps that resist or prevent users from falling off the ends of the scaffold. The end caps are quickly assembled to the scaffold with a removable rod and pin mechanism. Moreover, to prevent a user from falling off the front or back of the scaffold, a pole and a mid-rail connector can be connected to the scaffold across the front or back, respectively, between an upper barrier and a lower platform. The pole can be inserted through connectors that are coupled to the scaffold, and can also be connected to mid-rail brackets for additional structural stability.

A platform and a kit therefor. The platform and the kit comprises quad-chord trusses attachable end-to-end and having connector members intermediate thereof, and further comprising beams attachable at their ends to the connector members so that a beam attaches two parallel trusses. A truss comprises first and second pairs of chords which are foldable for storage and transport and unfoldable to use for erection of the platform. A track lies between the upper chords to allow movement of bolts along the track into position to attach for insertion into decking apertures for attachment of the decking. The kit also includes a sturdy and reliable and easy to use tie-up mechanism and railing along the platform perimeter which is quickly and easily attachable and reliable.

A scaffolding assembly adapted to be releasably attached to an elongate support member such as an overhead pipe. The scaffolding assembly has a split collar and a platform assembly adapted to be releasably attached to the split collar. The split collar comprises at least two segments which can encircle the pipe and be secured to one another. The platform assembly which includes a platform deck has a connector formation which extends laterally outwardly from the deck to an extent that it can engage a receiving formation on the collar assembly and thereby attach the platform assembly to the collar assembly.

A facade scaffold includes an inner pole, an outer pole and a scaffold cross-bar between the inner and outer poles. A hollow pole portion of the inner pole has a first receiving through-aperture for a coupling for the attachment of a scaffold holder. A maximum distance between the first receiving through-aperture and a top side of the scaffold cross-bar is no more than 300 mm. The first receiving through-aperture is arranged below the top side of the scaffold cross-bar, or is realized above the top side of the scaffold cross-bar as a first elongated hole. The longitudinal axis of the first elongated hole is aligned parallel to the pole longitudinal axis of the hollow pole portion. The invention simplifies and accelerates the operation of assembling a scaffold holder on a scaffold and for a two-pole scaffold holder allows a passage height under the scaffold holder to be increased.

A modular system for forming a floor or platform. The modular system may have vertical dividers for forming divided sections. Multiple horizontal sections are positioned in a side by side arrangement and connected with connectors to form the platform or floor in a desired shape and coverage. Vertical dividers inserted into the horizontal sections and retained in the horizontal sections provide separation of the modular system into compartments.

A prop-brace coupler has a first section configured to be selectively connected to a vertical prop member of a construction platform that includes a vertical spacing member and a diagonal bracing member. The prop-brace coupler also has a second section configured to be selectively connected to the vertical spacing member and to the diagonal bracing member.
