A fastening unit for attaching a first beam to a second beam is provided, wherein the second beam is arranged substantially perpendicularly to the first beam, the fastening unit having a first axis and a second axis, wherein the second axis is substantially perpendicular to the first axis. The fastening unit comprises a connecting member extending in a direction parallel to the first axis of the fastening unit and having a first edge portion, a second edge portion and a central portion, the connecting member further comprising a coupling element.

The disclosure is directed to a clamp for connecting a ledger to a shoring post. The clamp includes a base member, a ledger-connecting member, and a first jaw, which are fixed connected to each other. The clamp includes a rotatable member inserted into the base member, which is rotatable and slidable in the base member along a longitudinal axis. A portion of the rotatable member is accessible via the slot of the base member. The clamp includes a second jaw fixedly connected to the rotatable member. The clamp further includes a wedge, and when the wedge is inserted into the slot of the base member to engage the rotatable member in a lock position, the first and second jaws are locked to capture two sides of a shoring post.

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.

The invention relates to a frame element (10) comprising a frame pipe (12) into which a threaded spindle (16) is partly introduced at one end. The threaded spindle (16) is guided in the frame pipe (12) by at least one spindle positioning groove (24, 26, 28), in particular multiple spindle positioning grooves (24, 26, 28). The frame pipe (12) is mechanically reinforced by the spindle positioning groove(s) (24, 26, 28) in the region of the threaded spindle (16) received in the frame pipe (12). At the same time, the maximum inclination of the threaded spindle (16) in the frame pipe (12) is reduced by the spindle positioning grooves (24, 26, 28). Overall, a force can thus be substantially more strongly applied to the frame element (10) in the direction of the longitudinal axis (23b) of the frame pipe (12). At the other end, the frame pipe (12) has at least one pin positioning groove (40, 42), in particular multiple pin positioning grooves (40, 42). Alternatively or in addition thereto, the frame pipe (12) can have at least one reinforcing groove in the region of a node point. Alternatively or in addition thereto, the frame pipe (12) can have at least one additional reinforcing groove between two node points.

A modified scaffold component for use in modular scaffold systems allows securement to vertical uprights in a conventional manner and allows a work surface to pass over supporting uprights (if desired) to form a continuous work surface where securement of the modified scaffold component is below and does not interrupt the work surface.

A connector for temporary scaffolding at an end of a lateral member, to be wedge-connected to a receiver around a strut, includes: a wedge body provided movably at the end of the lateral member upward and downward relative to the lateral member; a locking body including a claw formed such that, as a result of the wedge-body's moving downward, the claw could travel from initial to locking position with respect to the receiver; and a biasing body capable of pressing the locking body toward the wedge body, wherein the wedge body includes a shoulder protruding toward the locking body, the locking body includes an interfering portion protruding toward the wedge body, and when the claw is at the initial position, the shoulder is blocked by the interfering portion from moving upward, thereby preventing the wedge body from moving upward and the locking body from traveling toward the biasing body.
