Apparatus for securing adjacent tiers of a retractable bleacher to prevent relative vertical movement between the adjacent tiers when the retractable bleacher is fully extended are described. The retractable bleacher includes a first engagement member that is secured to a first decking tier, a second engagement member secured to a second adjacent decking tier. The first engagement member and the second engagement member are configured and cooperative to prevent relative vertical movement of the second decking tier with respect to the first decking tier when the retractable bleacher is fully extended in the open configuration.

Bleacher deck interlock apparatus and method

A portable bleacher seating structure includes an active descent and lift mechanism that includes a placement assembly having an arm and an arm wheel at a distal end thereof. A bracket connects the arm to a gas spring. The pressure within the gas spring opposes the arm as the bleacher is positioned in order to control the descent of the bleacher as it is tipped into position.
