Abstract: A folding table is provided having a three-sectioned platform. The table includes two pairs of pivotal supporting legs wherein pair member legs are rigidly cross braced and are held by cable braces when the leg pairs are erected. The table also includes two tensionable platform cable members and a pair of platform-to-cable load transfer bars. When the table is fully erected the platform cable members are tensioned by the load transfer bars and maintain the platform in a flat, load-bearing state. The platform's three sections are interconnected by hinges that permit in a folded table a pair of opposite end sections to overfold one another and overlie an intervening mid-section. When folded, the table has a compact, easily transported configuration with all movable and loose components being internally stored.
