Abstract
The present invention relates to a scaffold deck of simplified construction. The scaffold deck has two parallel side rails connected at the ends by means of parallel transom members. Hook members are provided at the junction of the transom and side rail members with the fasteners for each hook member commonly securing the respective transom and side rail. The side rails at the opposed interior edges include a substrate engaging slot extending in the length of the side rails and have an edge region beyond the substrate which forms part of the top working surface of the scaffold deck. The scaffold deck advantageously uses the side rails for forming an edge region of the scaffold deck whereby the amount of substrate between the side rails is reduced thereby reducing cost and improving the weight of the scaffold deck.
