Build it the way it goes together.
There is no form asking for width, depth and height. You place a standard, click its connection node and run a ledger, and the standard at the far end is made for you. Turn a corner, add a lift, drop in decks. Everything stays editable.
- Ringlock Standard: spigot or sleeve, in 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 m.
- Ledger: chained runs in 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 m, with endpoint standards created as needed.
- Brace: a diagonal from one rosette to another 1 to 4 rings up or down.
A 500 mm modular system.
Scaffold sits on a 500 mm grid and parts connect at rosettes. Point near a ring and it is taken: you do not have to hit the tube, and ledgers in front of it do not get in the way.
Taller columns are built by stacking real parts. A 5.5 m column is 2.0 + 2.0 + 1.5 m, three components, never a stretched tube.
Decks, access and edge protection.
- Platform: click a ledger, then fill the bay with decking.
- Stair: connect a lower ledger to a higher one, at a third, the middle or two-thirds of the bay.
- Ladder, Guardrail and Toe Board attach to the ledgers already there.
- PA Tower Top: a U-lattice, a PA top assembly or a PA top with truss on two top rosettes 2 m apart.
- Jack Height: set the shared base-jack extension that levels a structure.
Got one bay right? Copy it.
Duplicate Sideways copies a bay to an adjacent face and Duplicate Upwards copies it as the next lift. Click a ledger, deck or fitted member inside the bay, check the ghost and click to build.
Welded frame scaffold is there too, as an early version: Frame Bay, Stack Frames and Frame Platform build straight runs of welded frames in 490, 914, 1219 and 1524 mm heights.
Every part is a real component.
Each standard, ledger, deck and brace is a SketchUp component that records what piece of equipment it is. A hundred and fifty identical 2 m standards are one definition and a hundred and fifty instances, so the model stays light and the parts can be counted.
Planning, not engineering.
Structure+ is for visual planning. It does not calculate loads, working load limits or capacities, and it does not certify that any structure or rig is safe. Those decisions stay with you and the qualified people signing off the job.
Accessory geometry is a generic modular representation. Structure+ is independent and not affiliated with any scaffold manufacturer.
