Abstract:
Clamp device () for attaching scaffolding or the like apparatus to a large-girth structure (LDP). An elongated base () is positioned transversely across the girth. It carries stand-offs () for spacing the base from the girth. Attachments () for the scaffolding are at opposite ends of the base. Length-adjustable securement members () are carried near opposite ends of the base. A flexible elongated girth-encircling member (), such as a high-strength chain, is extended around the girth, with length adequate for connection to the second securement members which are selectively adjustable in length from the base to cinch the girth-encircling member into tensile condition securely gripping to the girth by tightening adjustment. These adjustable members swing relative to the base so that during their tightening, portions of the length of the girth-encircling member become tangent to points on the girth.
