SUPPORT non soArFoLDs AND THE LIKE.

Application filed May 25, 1926, Serial No. 111,648, and in Germany May 27', 1925.

This invention consists in a support for scaffolds and the like which may be used n connection with masonry work for being anchored therein. The support accordlng to this invention may also advantageously be embedded 'into the masonry work when erectbeam of T-shaped cross-section, said beam.

projecting for its greater length from the wall and being upwardly bent at its free end.

The beam is'arranged with its vertical mid dle-web projecting upwardly. The means for fastening the support to the wall 1s preferably constructed in such a manner that the fastening members enter the Wall within the horizontal joints between the bricks or stones of the wall and outside the reach of the upright-joints. Thejdevice serving for fastening the support upon the wall may preferably be constructed in such a-manner'that it will H embrace the beam which forms the mainpart of the support. This fastening device may 7 further be equipped with members preferablyin the form of arms which are pivotally connected to said device and further holding or anchoring means may be provided passing through the free ends of said arms into a horizontal joint between the stones or bricks forming the wall. On the side of the wall opposite to the main or projecting part of the support there are preferably provided a plurality of bores in the beam of the support. These bores are spaced in such a manner that they will correspond to several thicknesses of the wall. In order to prevent said beam or support from being pulled out of brick, and F 2 being a view takenon the rear of the wall together withthe support accordingto this invention.

In the drawing a designates a wall of the thickness of one half of a brickdength, b an iron beam of T-shaped cross-section, said beam serving on its right-hand end as a supporting'member for the scaffold or the like and being carried on its left-hand. end through the wall. A brace 0 serves as a reinforcing member for the beam 6, said brace being further connected with said beam by a connecting piece 03. A holding member f embraces the cross-section of the beam 6 and isplaced, upon the left-hand end of .the-bealn b at the rear of the wall. .1 Two arms gare} pivoted tothe holding member f said arms having openings on their free ends, through which the anchor bolts 72. are inserted, said bolts passing into a horizontal joint between the bricks of the Wall.

As may be seen from Fig. 2 the iron beam I) having a T-shaped cross-section and being bent in upward. direction on its free end is.

betweenthe bricks. Near the left-hand end.

of the beam 6 openings at are provided preferably in the web of said beam, as may be seen from Fig. 1, said openings being spaced so as to correspond to several thicknesses of a wall. A wire 0 which is bent to :U-shape,

is passed through one of said openings 0?. im-

mediately in the rear ofthe holding member,

said wire 0 thus preventing the holding member 7 from moving towards the left, as shown in Fig. 1. The support, as above 'described, may be inserted into the wall during erection of the same or also into the completed wall, if so desired, by removing the mortar at the proper places from the joints between the bricks of the wall. In order to further fasten the support on the wall a wooden wedge 37 may be'provided, as shown in Fig. 1 whereby the effect of the anchor bolts it may be further increased.

The support as described and claimed herein may be used not only as a support for scafiolds but also for further devices which may be fastened to the wall.

I claim 1 1. A scafiold support comprising a sub-- end thereof adapted to be passed entirely through and beyond a wall, a holding memher embracing saidend afterbeing passedthrough the wall, a pair of arms pivoted to said member and extending below the same, and-means to fasten the ends of said arms to the wall. r

2. A scaffold support comprising a substantially horizontal supporting beam T shaped in cross section one end thereof to be passed entirely through-and beyond a wall at the meeting of vertical and horizontal mortar joints, the web of said end having longi-.

tudinally spaced perforations, a holding member embracing said end, an arm pivoted to each end of said member, and means for securing said arms to the wall considerably below said end. i

3. A support for building construction comprising a beam T-shaped in cross section having its middle flange upwardly directed, and meansfor anchoring the end of the beam opposite to its loaded end to a point of the building below said beam to prevent upward movement of said end opposite to the loaded end. i

4. A support for building constructions comprising a supporting beam and means to anchor the end of the beam oppositeto its loaded end to a point of the building below the said beam to prevent upward movement of said end opposite to the loaded end,.said means being adjustable for altering the vertical distance between the beam' and said point of thejbuilding.

5; A support for building constructions comprising a supporting beam and means to anchorthe end of the beam opposite to its loaded end to a point of the building below the said beam to prevent upward movement of said end opposite to the'loaded end, said means being pivotable for altering the vertical'distance between the beam and said point of the building.

6; A support for building constructions comprising a supporting beam to be passed through a building'wall, and means to anchor the end of the beam opposite to its loaded'end to a point ofsaid building wall below the said building.

beam to prevent upward movement of said end opposite to the loaded end, said'means being adjustable for altering the vertical distance between thebeam and saidpoint of the end opposite'to theloaded end, said means 1 being adjustable for altering the vertical distance between the beam and said point of the building wall.

8. A support for building constructions comprising a supporting beam and meansextending below' the same for anchoring the end-of the beam opposite to its loaded end to at least two points of the building below the said beam and horizontally distanced one from another to prevent. upward movement of said end opposite to the loaded end; 7

9. A support for building constructions comprising a supporting beamand' means extending below the same for anchoringthe end of the beam opposite to its loaded end to at least two points of the building. below the said beam and horizontally distanced" one from another to prevent upward movement of said end opposite to the loaded end, said means being adjustable for altering the vertical distance between the beam and. said points ofthe building.

10. A support for building constructions comprising a supportingbeam and means extending below the same for anchoring the end of the beam opposite to its loaded end toat least two points ofthe building below the said beam'and horizontally distanced'one from another to prevent upward 'movement of said endopposite to theloaded end said means comprising a holding member em racing said end, a pair of arms pivoted to said member and extending below the same and means to fasten the ends of said arms to the In testimony whereoflaflix my signature.
