A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Hinge assembly for scaffolding
A scaffolding arrangement for covering a void includes a pair of horizontally extending cylindrical support rails (60) spaced apart in a generally parallel arrangement. A panel (50) forming part of a void platform comprises a floor surface (52) supported by at least two elongate support members (54), each support member defining a cross-section and hook portion at each end. Each hook portion is disposed on one of the pair of horizontally extending cylindrical support members (60) with the panel 950) supported between the horizontally extending cylindrical support members. A sleeve (10) defines an internal recess (11) adapted to receive the cross-section of the support member (54), a pair of apertures (20) in opposed side faces for receiving a cylindrical support member and a locking means (26)for securing the sleeve to the support member. The sleeve (10) locates around an end of the support member including the hook portion (56) located on the support rail (60), with the support rail extending through the apertures (20) on the sleeve and the locking means securing the sleeve in position on the end of the support member therefore forming a hinge arrangement allowing rotation of the panel about the support rail while preventing disengagement of the hooks from the support rail (60).
