MONOPOLE LOW-PROFILE PLATFORM ASSEMBLIES
The present disclosure describes monopole platform assembly. The platform assembly includes a frame, the frame including an elongate, hollow main support member of rectangular cross-section, and a plurality of elongate, hollow auxiliary support members of rectangular cross-section attached orthogonally to the main support member; a mounting plate coupled to an end of the main support member; at least two grating edge members coupled to the auxiliary support members; and a grating, the grating being supported by the two grating edge members, the auxiliary support members, and the main support member. The opposing ends of each auxiliary support member extend a distance outwardly passed the grating edge members such that the extended ends of the auxiliary support members are positioned to support a horizontal pipe member. The extended ends of the auxiliary support members each include a feature configured to enable fixing of the horizontal pipe member thereto. Additional platform assemblies are described herein.
A TEMPORARY WORKING PLATFORM, A TRANSPORT SYSTEM, A VESSEL, AND A METHOD
A temporary working platform for removable attachment to a column of an offshore structure. The platform comprises a frame for carrying a working structure such as a working surface. Further, the platform comprises a mounting mechanism for releasably mounting the working platform to said column, from a side of the column. The mounting mechanism may include a clamping mechanism supporting the frame. The clamping mechanism may be arranged for at least partially surrounding a column of an offshore structure and for releasably clamping said column.
Tower apparatus
An apparatus includes a first platform, a second platform disposed above the first platform, a scaffolding connecting the first and second platforms including an upper support beam, a middle support beam, and a lower support beam, and a cable attached to the upper support beam. The lower support beam supports the first platform. The middle support beam supports the second platform. The upper support beam is disposed above the second platform.
Method for discharging granular powder brought into fixed state inside hollow structure
A rack rail is suspended into a silo from an opening formed in a ceiling portion of the silo and a lifting body is lowered into the silo along the rack rail from the opening. A work scaffold is built on the lifting body using a part carried into the silo from the opening, a worker connected to the work scaffold with a safety belt pokes and breaks down a granular powder in a state where a discharge port of a silo bottom portion is closed, the poked and broken down granular powder drops to a rat hole (or boring hole), the worker connected to the work scaffold with the safety belt adds a rack rail in a state where the rat hole is blocked with the granular powder, the discharge port is opened to discharge the granular powder stored in the passage, and then the work scaffold is lowered to the added rack rail.
MODULAR WORK PLATFORM AND SYSTEM HAVING A MODULAR WORK PLATFORM AND A FIXTURE FOR A TUNED MASS DAMPER IN A WIND TURBINE
Provided is a modular work platform including multiple modules for assembly about a tuned mass damper in a wind turbine, whereby the multiple modules are a first base platform, a second base platform, a first base connecting railing, and a second base connecting railing, whereby in an assembled state of the modular work platform, the modular work platform includes a platform opening for the tuned mass damper, wherein the platform opening is formed between the first base platform, the second base platform, the first base connecting railing and the second base connecting railing. A system including the modular work platform and a fixture for the tuned mass damper in the wind turbine, whereby the modular work platform is connected to the fixture is also provided.

BLADE ACCESS ARRANGEMENT FOR A ROTOR BLADE OF A WIND POWER PLANT
A blade access arrangement for a rotor blade of a wind power plant is described, the arrangement including a platform (1) having at least two sub-platforms (3, 4, 5, 6) which are moveably connected to each other by means of a connecting arrangement. In such a platform the sub-platforms should keep a predetermined orientation to the rotor blade. To this end the connection arrangement comprises at least two connectors (9, 10), the connectors (9, 10) having the same length and at least at their ends the same distance to each other.
PLATFORM FOR A HUB OF A WIND TURBINE
A platform assembly for a hub of a wind turbine is configured to provide a working surface inside the hub. The platform assembly includes a first platform coupled to a hub access structure, wherein the hub access structure extends in an axial direction between a nacelle of the wind turbine and the hub and provides access from the nacelle to the hub.

BUILDING ASSEMBLY SYSTEM AND ASSOCIATED METHOD
A building assembly system for fabricating a multi-story building is described, wherein the building includes a vertical support core arranged on a base. Lift jacks are arranged between a top portion and a bottom portion of the vertical support core, and a reusable bridle is suspended from the plurality of lift jacks and slidably arranged on the vertical support core. A floor plate is assembled onto the bridle at an assembly level that is proximal to the base. The plurality of the lift jacks are operable to lift the bridle and the assembled floor plate to a design elevation on the vertical support core, and are operable to lower the bridle to the assembly level on the vertical support core after the floor plate has been secured to the vertical support core at the design elevation.
