Modular gantry structure
H:\kd\Intrwov n\NRPortbl\DCC\KXD\I2326834 L.docx-8/12/2016 Abstract Disclosed is a structure for extending over a walkway or footpath. The structure includes a roof section, a plurality of legs extending substantially away from the roof section and a bracing structure connected between the roof section and a part of one or more of the legs proximal to the roof section. The bracing structure strengthens the structure so that a floor or other brace is not required between parts of the legs distal from the roof section. The roof section provides a continuous cover over the walkway or footpath and includes a substantially flat upper surface. In one form, the roof section can include a counterweight and may also include a plurality of corner castings and/or twist lock fittings positioned to conform to one or more standards for intermodal freight containers.
