Funicular arched steel truss falsework

A method of making a support structure, comprising detachably or pivotably connecting in opposition, at least one pair of half funicular arched trusses, wherein each said half funicular arched truss comprises:

• a) an exterior vertical member comprising a footing at a bottom end and a structure mount at a top end;
• b) a bottom chord member comprising a bottom end of said bottom chord member connected proximal to said exterior vertical member bottom end and a top end of said bottom chord member connected to a bottom port of a four-point intermediate connector, wherein said intermediate connector comprises said bottom port connected to a bottom portion of a connector housing and an outer port, a center port, and an inner port connected to a top portion of said connector housing;
• c) a diagonal member comprising a diagonal member bottom end connected to said inner port and a diagonal member top end connected proximal to said exterior vertical member top end;
• d) an interior vertical member comprising an interior vertical bottom end connected to said center port and an interior vertical member top end connected to a second said structure mount;
• e) a second bottom chord comprising a second bottom chord bottom end connected to said outer port and a second bottom chord top end connected to a bottom port of a second said four-point intermediate connector;
• f) a second diagonal member comprising a second diagonal member bottom end connected to an outer port of said second four-point intermediate connector and a second diagonal member top end connect proximal to said interior vertical member top end;
• g) a second said interior vertical member comprising a second interior vertical bottom end connected to a center port of said second four-point intermediate connector and a second interior vertical top end connected to a third said structure mount;
• h) a third bottom chord comprising a third bottom chord bottom end connected to an outer port of said second four-point intermediate connector and a third bottom chord top end connected to a bottom port of a third said four-point intermediated connector;
• i) a third diagonal member comprising a third diagonal member bottom end connected to an inner port of a third four-point intermediate connector and a third diagonal member top end connected proximal to said second interior vertical top end;
• j) a third said interior vertical member comprising a third interior vertical member bottom end connected to a center port of said third four-point intermediated connector and an interior vertical member top end connected to a fourth said structure mount;
• k) a fourth said bottom chord comprising a fourth bottom chord bottom end connected to an inner port of said third four-point intermediate connector and a fourth bottom chord top end connected to a truss joiner;
• and
• l) a horizontal member connected to said truss joiner and connected proximal to said third interior vertical member top end and connected proximal to said second interior vertical member top end and connected proximal to first interior top end and connected proximal to said exterior vertical top end;
• wherein one said half funicular arched truss detachably or pivotably connects to another said half funicular arched truss by detachably or fixedly connecting each said truss half funicular arched truss to a truss joiner in opposition to form a funicular truss scaffold, wherein said truss joiner is a solid plate or a hinged plate, wherein when in a detached or pivoted state storage and transporting a plurality of said half funicular arched trusses is simplified.
