Abstract

A quick-connect/disconnect guardrail scaffolding system includes a first scaffold guardrail having a first forked clasp, a second scaffold guardrail having a second forked clasp, and a third scaffold guardrail pivotally coupled to the first scaffold guardrail and releasably coupled to the second scaffold guardrail. A quick-connect/disconnect guardrail scaffolding system includes a scaffold platform and a scaffold guardrail releasably coupled thereto. They cooperate to constrain horizontal separation, constrain vertical separation, constrain relative pivoting in a first direction about a generally horizontal axis, and permit relative pivoting in a second direction about the axis. A quick-connect/disconnect guardrail scaffolding method includes removably engaging a forked clasp of a scaffold guardrail with a flange of a scaffold platform; abutting a generally planar surface of the scaffold guardrail with a generally planar surface of the scaffold platform concurrently with the removable engagement; and releasably coupling the scaffold guardrail to a second scaffold guardrail.
