Abstract

Each of a pair of clip members comprises a plate-type member of rectangular configuration having a rectangular corner cutout forming a pair of perpendicular edges. Each clip member has a channel formed therein and extending perpendicularly to one of the edges and linearly with the other of the edges for accommodating the ledge part of a stiffener of a ship's hull and bulkhead with one of the edges abutting the underside of the plank-type part of the stiffener. A pair of bracket members support a scaffold platform between them. Each bracket member comprises a plate-type member having a rectangular part tapering downward to a narrow part and a rectangular corner cutout in the rectangular part forming a pair of perpendicular edges. Each bracket member is releasably affixed to a corresponding bracket member in a manner whereby one of the edges of the bracket member abuts the topside of the plank-type part of the stiffener and the other of the edges of the bracket member abuts the outside of the ledge part of the stiffener thereby securing the clip members to the stiffener.
