Method of assembling a platform system

Abstract

A method of assembling a platform system is disclosed. The method includes positioning a first frame having one or more panels, then securing a first portable support to the first frame, securing a second frame to the first frame to form a first continuous platform level. The method includes positioning a plurality of frames having one or more panels to form a first continuous platform level, then securing a first portable support to at least one of the plurality of frames. The method includes forming a first continuous platform level from a plurality of frames having one or more panels. The method includes securing portable supports to at least one of the plurality of frames, securing an additional frame having one or more panels to the portable supports, and forming a second continuous platform level from a plurality of additional frames.

1 . A method of assembling a platform system, comprising:

         3 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising securing additional portable supports to the first continuous platform level. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising securing a first portable support to at least one of the bottom surface and the top surface of the first frame. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising securing a second continuous platform level to the first continuous platform level. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising disassembling the platform system into smaller components suitable for transportation. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising disassembling the platform system by releasing the first support member by a manual force. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 3 , wherein securing additional portable supports includes permitting unsupported placement of the portable supports into receiving members of a plurality of additional frames having lengths of 8 feet or greater apart. 
     
     
         9 . A method of assembling a platform system, comprising:
 positioning a plurality of frames having one or more panels to form a first continuous platform level; then   securing a first portable support to at least one of the plurality of frames.   
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 9 , further comprising securing a second portable support to the first continuous platform level. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 9 , further comprising securing an additional frame having one or more panels to the first portable support and the second portable support. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 9 , further comprising securing a second continuous platform level to the first continuous platform level. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 9 , further comprising securing a third portable support to at least one of the bottom surface and the top surface of the additional frame. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 9 , further comprising disassembling the platform system into smaller components suitable for transportation. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 9 , further comprising disassembling the platform system by releasing the first support member by a manual force. 
     
     
         16 . A method of assembling a platform system, comprising:
 forming a first continuous platform level from a plurality of frames having one or more panels, the plurality of frames including one or more receiving members;   the one or more receiving members having a casing with a magnetic panel;   securing portable supports to at least one of the plurality of frames;   securing an additional frame having one or more panels to the portable supports; and   forming a second continuous platform level from a plurality of additional frames;   wherein the adjacent receiving members are magnetically attracted.   
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 16 , further comprising engaging at least one of a plurality of secondary support members to at least one of the portable supports. 
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 16 , further comprising engaging at least one of a plurality of secondary support members to at least one of the additional frames. 
     
     
         19 . The method of  claim 16 , wherein securing the portable supports further comprises engaging with mating tapered surfaces. 
     
     
         20 . The method of  claim 16 , further comprising disassembling the support structure into smaller components suitable for storage or transportation.
