Abstract: Fitting (1) for forming guard rails of posts or for anchoring guard elements with elongated guard elements, removably mounted in the fittings, such as boards, pipes, aluminum profiles or the like, or guard elements made as protective nets. The fitting (1) comprises an upper (2) and a lower (6) separate main component supporting individual guard elements. The ends (12, 34) of the components (2, 6) facing each other are each provided with a laterally extending lug (14, 36). The lugs are pivotably joined to each other and a clevis is pivotably mounted about the lugs (14, 36) and is provided with an anchoring pin (26) disposed essentially perpendicular to the pivot axis of the lugs.

Abstract: A device for anchoring beams, together or to one or more other structural elements. A wedge-shaped beam attachment (10) is intended to straddle respective beams and can be fitted in any selected position along the beam. The attachment includes a short leg (12) and a long leg (14) which define an angle or 90 degrees with one another. An angled collar (16) on the short leg (12) is bent through 90 degrees and the outer end of the long leg (14) is bent to an angle of about 75 degrees. This bent outer end of the long leg (14) forms an abutment spring (18) which consequently defines an angle of approximately 75 degrees with the long leg (14) and which functions to urge a wedge (23) resiliently against the side edge of a beam.
