Abstract
Specially designed plates and/or mounting apparatus against and on the standard vertical column used in construction of office structures or other structures including bridges. Each set of plates has a clamping mechanism design to fit around or on the vertical column and has protrusions onto which are mounted a bracket with holes fitting on the protrusions. The brackets project outside the skin of a building and deck planks or pics can be mounted on the brackets to allow workmen to safely walk and work on the deck planks to perform work on a floor-by-floor basis. The system can be dissembled quickly and moved to another part of the same floor, to a new floor, and can be used around the outside corner of a structure or from an overhang or from a horizontal beam. The system can be used with steel tube construction with or without fireproofing.
