A kit for erecting a platform. The kit comprises a plurality of quad-chord trusses. Each truss is attachable to others of the truss by eyelets on the ends of the chords. When the chords are spaced horizontally, the eyelet apertures are vertical for receiving pins, which allows a single pin to be inserted in eyelet apertures on one side of the truss so that one truss is swingable horizontally into position for rigid attachment end-to-end by inserting another pin in eyelet apertures on the other side of the truss. Each truss comprises a plurality of connector members for attachment to the trusses along their lengths. The kit further comprises a plurality of cross beams having connector members at their ends to mate with and attach to the truss connector members, and a plurality of tie-up mechanisms attachable to the trusses and to which a a supporting line from an overhead structure is attachable. The cross beams have overhangs at their ends for overhanging the upper ones of the chords to allow ease of movement along the chords and attachment. A track lies between the chords of each truss to allow movement of bolts along the track into position for insertion into decking apertures for attachment of the decking. The trusses may be foldable for transport and storage.

A scaffold ledger providing a raised support surface of the elongate structural member with the opposed ledger heads being downwardly and outwardly offset. Each ledger head includes cover flaps that extend the raised support surface above the ledger heads in a cover position. The scaffold ledger cooperates with scaffold posts and scaffold planks to allow for a continuous work platform above an intermediate scaffold support post and/or across supporting ledgers.

The invention relates to a metal fitting for a toeboard of a scaffolding, comprising a metal fitting body extending in a longitudinal direction of the metal fitting body from a first end region of the metal fitting body designed for connection to a toeboard and/or connected to a toeboard to a second end region of the metal fitting body designed for securing on a scaffolding, wherein at least one securing protrusion is provided in the second end region of the metal fitting body extending substantially in the longitudinal direction of the metal fitting body, characterized in that at least one support protrusion is provided extending in a first transverse direction transverse to the longitudinal direction of the metal fitting body.

A scaffold toeboard system for locking a toeboard between two vertical scaffold members where each vertical scaffold member includes a tubular member having a diameter and an outer shape. The toeboard system includes a toeboard having an elongated member with a fixed terminating end and an adjustable terminating end. The toeboard further includes a front portion, a top portion, a bottom portion and a rear portion. The toeboard system further includes a locking mechanism slidably mounted to the adjustable terminating end, where the locking mechanism includes a lock member body with a front sidewall two fingers positioned on said locking mechanism and extending outwardly from the front sidewall of the locking member. The two fingers separated by a horizontal distance of about the diameter of a scaffold vertical member. The locking mechanism further includes a lock, where the lock is actuatable to fix the position of the lock member body with respect to the toeboard in a deployed position. The fixed terminating end is shaped to engage a scaffold vertical member.

Disclosed is a mould system for moulding a blade shell of a wind turbine blade comprising a first mould for manufacturing a first blade shell part of the wind turbine blade; a second mould for manufacturing a second blade shell part of the wind turbine blade; a turning device configured to reposition the first mould between an open mould position and a closed mould position comprising a turning mechanism and a first primary beam connecting the turning mechanism and the first mould; a first scaffold arranged between the first mould and the second mould in the open mould position and comprising a first primary scaffold part and a first secondary scaffold part spaced apart by a first primary scaffold opening, the first primary scaffold allowing the first primary beam to move therethrough during repositioning of the first mould; a first primary movable platform attached to the first mould and being configured to move between an extended platform position and a stored platform position and covering the first primary scaffold opening in the extended position and arranged to expose the first primary scaffold opening in the stored platform position.

A post for a temporary safety rail system comprising a base for reversible engagement with a floor, a rail holder to hold a rail in reversibly fixed engagement with the post and a plurality of components which are together operable to adjust the height of the post.

An adjustable toe board that is capable of adjustment to a number of varying lengths to accommodate various platform sizing. An exemplary embodiment of the invention includes a locking mechanism for use with the adjustable toe board to retain the toe board in its retracted position when necessary for transport, storage, or when the size of the portion of the platform the toe board will be used in requires the toe board to be in its fully collapsible state. A uniquely shaped wedge pin may be utilized to accommodate various sizes of posts when connecting a non-adjustable or an adjustable toe board to scaffolds and the like.

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.

Systems and methods for scaffolding systems for use with curvilinear walls, particularly to fit about the curved wall of a holding tank and to be readily moved to varying heights of the holding talk wall.

A safety rail apparatus is provided, which comprises a post with a base configured to reversibly engage with a floor and providing support for at least 12 kN load, a rail holder configured to hold a rail in reversibly fixed engagement with the post and a plurality of components which are together operable to adjust the height of the post between a lower height of 900 mm-1.2 m and an upper height of 1.9 m-2.5 m. The plurality of compontents is further configured to adjust the height of the post to the lower height during one stage of a construction project and to the upper height during another stage of the construction project such that the upper height is at least 1.8 times higher than the lower height. The apparatus further comprises a mesh support configured to reversibly engage with the rail and support a mesh.
