Abstract
A modified scaffold support post includes areas of reduced diameter, intermediate the length of the support post, having connecting rosettes secured to these reduced diameter areas. Preferably the areas of reduced diameter correspond to diameter of support tubes used as uprights in scaffold frames in North America (approximately 1.69 inches in outer diameter). Preferably the areas of reduced diameter are formed by swaging a tube of a larger diameter, typically approximately 1.90 inches. The modified support post is advantageously used with scaffold frames with connecting rosettes appropriately positioned on the uprights of the scaffold frames.
