Abstract
A system for constructing staging or the like comprising beams 2,3,4,5,6 etc. (e.g. timbers) and socket elements 10,11,12,13, etc., with screws or the like to secure the beams to the socket elements. The socket elements each comprise at least three interconnected box sections for slidably receiving the beams, the box sections being open at both ends and arranged such that a first of the beams can pass through a selected one of the box sections, while at least one further beam can pass through further box sections and abut the first beam. The system generally supports cladding sheets 1, for example, for stage flooring.
