Abstract
Various implementations described herein are directed to a load bearing ledger fitting, a modular header beam, a perimeter safety deck, a multi-purpose bearing plate, and a mega-shore bearing plate of an integrated construction system.
Claims12
A perimeter safety deck assembly of an integrated construction system, comprising:
- a post in the integrated construction system;
- a first ledger cantilevered to the post in a configuration perpendicular to the post;
- and
- at least one second ledger coupled to the first ledger in a configuration perpendicular to the first ledger and forming a wall panel on a perimeter of the integrated construction system,
- wherein a platform is coupled to the first ledger via a plurality of joists,
- wherein the platform is configured to provide worker access, or provide support for shoring or both, and
- wherein the platform supports a modular header beam, the modular header beam is coupled to the post and a second platform, and the second platform is configured to provide shoring for a concrete slab.
