The invention relates to a temporary scaffolding rest which temporarily supports a standby scaffolding component upon a scaffolding upright in a first temporary disconnected position which is laterally offset from the scaffolding upright for subsequent installation of said standby scaffolding component to a portion of said upright in a second installed position which is laterally inset from the first temporary disconnected position. The temporary scaffolding rest includes a temporary connector for temporarily connecting the temporary scaffolding rest to said portion of said scaffolding upright, and an elongated rest which extends laterally from the temporary connector in order to temporarily support a portion of said standby scaffolding adjacent said portion of said scaffolding upright in said first temporary disconnected laterally offset position ready for subsequent installation to said portion of said scaffolding upright in said second installed position. A method of erecting a row of scaffolding which is higher than the row of scaffolding upon which an installer is positioned is also provided.

An electronic device comprising a system on chip and an external module. The system on chip includes a plurality of internal subsystems and a power management system including a plurality of internal voltage regulators which supply power to the plurality of internal subsystems. Each of the internal voltage regulators has an associated current limiter. The external module includes at least one external voltage regulator which can provide power to at least one of the internal subsystems. The power management system during a start-up phase enables the internal voltage regulators and the current limiters and in a subsequent phase determines an externally powered set of the internal subsystems, disables the corresponding internal voltage regulators, and disables the current limiters associated with the internal subsystems not externally powered.

Preceding guardrail for a scaffolding system for buildup of a scaffold bay. The guardrail assembly comprises a guardrail, a base part, a mounting system for mounting of the base part to a part of the scaffold bay, at least a first post and a second post, and a lifting arm. The guardrail extends along a longitudinal axis. The base part extends substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the guardrail. The first and second post are each pivotably connected to the guardrail by a first pivoting point and pivotably connected to the base part by a second pivoting point, whereby the guardrail, the base part, the first, and the second post together form a parallelogram link system. The lifting arm is fixedly connected with the first post and extends in line with the first post from the second pivoting point away from the first pivoting point.

Preceding guardrail holder for a scaffolding system, configured for cooperation with guardrails provided with a fastening hook at a longitudinal end. The preceding guardrail holder includes a first and a second cross connection element extending perpendicular to a mounting plate and a retaining plate, which cross connection elements are mutually spaced apart and together bound a fastening hook receiving space for receiving in the fastening hook receiving space the fastening hook of a first guardrail. The distance between the first and the second cross connection element is such that, if the fastening hook is received in the fastening hook receiving space and the first guardrail is not supported otherwise, a recess on a radial inner side of the fastening hook rests on the first cross connection element, and a radial outer side of the fastening hook abuts against the second cross connection element, the first guardrail thereby being wholly supported by the single preceding guardrail holder.

A scaffold includes first and second ladder frames. Each ladder frame includes first and second vertical supports, and first and second horizontal supports mounted to the vertical supports. The first horizontal support is formed of tubular material, and has a base or central section and an asymmetric flattened end section. The end section is mounted to the first vertical support. The central section has a top centerline and a bottom centerline. The end section has a vertically elongated cross section compared to the central section. A top of the end section aligns with the top centerline of the central section; and a bottom of the end section is disposed below the bottom centerline of the central section. Related methods and tools are also disclosed.

A coupling device suitable for interconnecting two beam ends is provided, wherein the beam with the beam end has an elongate axis, where on a first beam end is arranged first interconnection units having two first parallel flange elements arranged with a mutual first distance x, wherein in each flange is designed a cut-out with a cross-section in the plane of the flange; a second beam end is arranged a second interconnection unit having a second flange, the width of the second flange across the plane of the second flange is smaller than or equal to x, and where largely perpendicular to the plane of the second flange, a connecting element protrudes on each side of the second flange, the cross-section of the connecting element in the plane of the second flange allows insertion of the connecting element into the cut-outs of the first flanges on the first beam end.

A support member and bracket for a modular decking system, wherein the support member includes at least one securing location at which the bracket is securable to the support member, and the bracket includes: one or more hooks configured to be received by one or more hook apertures of the securing location; and a pair of side walls and a further wall defining a tapering slot for receipt of a fin of a decking member or beam.

This publication relates to a tubular transom in particular for temporary structures, such as scaffolding or false work and similar structure, having ends configured to be connected to verticals at node sections arranged at intervals on the verticals. Each end of the transom comprises a fastening device with an integrated profile part, releasably attached to the tubular transom in an opening at the ends of the tubular transom. The transom comprises a first and at least second elongate, parallel and hollow tube elements, interconnected at least at each end by intermediate integrated web plates, rigidly fixed to said at least two tube elements. A contact surface of the opening in the first tube, is transversally arranged relative to one or more web plates. A contact surface of the opening in the second tube is transversally arranged relative to one or more web plates. The opening at the ends of the transom having at least partly a complimentary shape.
