This invention relates generally to a method for making a deck for use in construction. In one embodiment, the method includes, but is not limited to, positioning a first box tube substantially parallel to a second box tube; attaching a plate to the first box tube and the second box tube, the plate extending between the first box tube and the second box tube; coupling a hydraulic cylinder to the plate; slidably inserting a first extension member at least partially into the first box tube; slidably inserting a second extension member at least partially into the second box tube, the first and second extension members having a beam extending therebetween; coupling the hydraulic cylinder to the beam; positioning a platform having one or more wheels on the plate and over the hydraulic cylinder such that the platform is rollable relative to the plate; attaching the platform to the beam such that the platform is operable to retractably extend beyond an edge of a floor of a building in conjunction with the first and second extension members in response to actuation of the at least one hydraulic cylinder; and forming a rectangular cuboid basket comprised of six faces with a connecting mechanism on a top face.

Provided is a level-by level construction methodology integrating architectural and structural work for use in the construction of a multi-level building utilizing a movable protection system that can be mounted to a multi-level building during its construction.

A pallet that is configured and designed to support a load of material and rest alternatively on a flat surface on a roof so as to straddle the peak or ridge of a roof. The pallets can be loaded with materials such as roofing shingles, delivered to a work site on a truck bed and lifted up and positioned on the peak or ridge of a roof without having to unload the materials from the pallets.

A master hoisting platform, comprising: an outer frame removably installable inside a floor of a multi-floor building under construction; and an inner frame slidable in the outer frame between a retracted position inside the floor and an extended position outside the floor; wherein the inner frame comprises a framework structure to mount a hoist comprising a winch positioned rearwardly above the inner frame, and a sheave positioned forwardly above the inner frame.

A loading platform for use in building construction, the loading platform comprising a support structure adapted to be fixed to a building and extend outwardly from the building; and a deck mountable to the support structure such that the deck extends from the building, the support structure being configured such that at least a portion of an upper surface of the support structure extends level with or below a floor surface of the building when fixed to the building.

A deck for use in construction, the deck comprising: a stationary support structure including at least a first box tube and a second box tube disposed parallel to the first box tube, the stationary support structure being positionable entirely within an edge of a floor of a building; a bottom plate extending between said first box tube and said second box tube; a first extension member disposed within the first box tube and being operable to retractably extend from the first box tube; a second extension member disposed within the second box tube and being operable to retractably extend from the second box tube; and a platform having one or more wheel structures located along one or more sides of the platform, wherein the one or more wheel structures are comprised of a wheel mount and one or more wheels and the one or more wheels are configured to roll along a top surface of the first box tube and/or a top surface of the second box tube, and wherein the platform is operable to retractably extend at least partly beyond the edge of the floor in conjunction with the first extension member and the second extension member.

A furling crane loading platform (1) comprising: a cantilever support base (3); a first stage (2A) pivotally coupled to the cantilever support base (3); and a second stage (2B) pivotally coupled to first stage (2A). In an unfurled configuration (2B) the first and second stages provide a substantially horizontal crane loading surface extending from a building edge (11). The platform is configurable into furled configuration (2A). The platform may further comprise a third stage pivotally coupled to the second stage, fourth pivotally coupled to the third stage, hydraulic actuators (16), controller for controlling the stages in a sequence, sensor for sensing the configuration of the stages, detachable cantilever support beams (4) with a downward transition portion (19), props (5) to prop the cantilever support beams against an under surface of a floor slab and lockout mechanism (17).
