Intermediate transoms

         Intermediate  Transoms  provide  mid-bay
         support for 38mm scaffold boards by span-

         ning  between  the  inner  and  outer  ledgers.
         The  jaw  section  at  each  end  is  turned

         downwards to prevent dislocation. One end
         is  provided  with  an  integral  locking  device

         to prevent any movement along the ledgers
         during use.

         Standards available in sizes

         Further units are provided for use when CUPLOK is erected to form birdcage access scaffolds

         using 38mm scaffold boards and when CUPLOK is erected to form mobile access towers in mod-
         ular sizes. Also used when temporary access is required in support structures where bay widths

         exceed the safe span of boards.

                                                          Drop into place over the ledgers and are secured

                                                          with a locking device to prevent movement. Act as
                                                          conventional  transoms  but  extend  beyond  the  in-

                                                          side ledger to provide intermediate support to one
                                                          or two inside boards.
