  • Each of the four passages 60 . 1 , 60 . 2 , 60 . 3 has a passage cross-section of substantially the same size.
  • the passage height 63 of each passage 60 . 1 , 60 . 2 , 60 . 3 is smaller than the reinforcing profile member height 56 .
  • As considered in a viewing direction perpendicular to a plane 65 containing the first longitudinal axis 23 and the second longitudinal axis 43 not only are the first passage 60 . 1 of the first profile limb 50 . 1 and the second passage 60 . 2 of the second profile limb 50 . 2 in alignment, but also the third passage 60 . 3 of the first profile limb 50 . 1 and the fourth passage of the second profile limb 50 .
  • Each of the four passages 60 . 1 , 60 . 2 , 60 . 3 is, as considered in a viewing direction perpendicular to the plane or longitudinal plane of symmetry 65 containing the first longitudinal axis 23 and the second longitudinal axis 43 , bounded or enclosed over the whole circumference by wall parts of the respective profile limb 50 . 1 , 502 of the U reinforcing profile member 22 and by a wall part of the outer wall 38 of the round-tube girder profile member 21 .
  • the two profile limbs 50 . 1 , 50 . 2 of the U reinforcing profile member 22 each have in the region of the passages 60 . 1 , 60 . 3 ; 60 . 2 thereof a profile limb height 66 which is of substantially the same size and which is larger than half the reinforcing profile member height 56 . Accordingly, the respective passage height 63 of the passages 60 . 1 , 60 . 3 ; 60 . 2 of the two profile limbs 50 . 1 , 50 . 2 of the U reinforcing profile member 22 is in each instance smaller than half the reinforcing profile member height 56 .
  • the passage heights 63 of the passages 60 . 1 , 60 . 3 ; 60 . 2 are of substantially the same size.
  • the respective passage height 63 is approximately 30.0 millimetres.
  • the profile limb height 66 which the profile limbs 50 . 1 , 50 . 2 of the U reinforcing profile member 22 each have in the region of the passages 60 . 1 , 60 . 3 ; 60 . 2 , is here approximately 43.0 millimetres.
  • the reinforcing profile member height 56 is approximately 73.0 millimetres.
  • the scaffolding bar 20 is configured or formed symmetrically with respect to a longitudinal plane 65 of symmetry, which contains the first longitudinal axis 23 and the second longitudinal axis 43 and also symmetrically with respect to a transverse plane 67 of symmetry containing the girder profile member longitudinal centre 27 of the round-tube girder profile member 21 .
  • the U reinforcing profile member 22 and thus also the two lateral profile limbs 50 . 1 , 50 . 2 , which extend substantially parallel to one another, of the U reinforcing profile member 22 are configured or formed symmetrically with respect to the longitudinal plane 65 of symmetry and also symmetrically with respect to the transverse plane 67 of symmetry.
  • U reinforcing profile member 22 of the scaffolding bar 20 which are formed and arranged symmetrically with respect to the longitudinal plane 65 of symmetry, of the U reinforcing profile member 22 of the scaffolding bar 20 extend parallel to one another on either side of the longitudinal plane 65 of symmetry and thus on either side of a profile limb axis 51 , which is formed perpendicularly to the second longitudinal axis 43 , of the U reinforcing profile member 22 .
  • the two profile limbs 50 . 1 , 50 . 2 of the U reinforcing profile member 22 are each arranged to be offset by the fastening ends 55 . 1 , 55 . 2 thereof laterally relative to the longitudinal plane 65 of symmetry by an identical spacing corresponding with half the transverse spacing 52 or half the U reinforcing profile member width 52 . Accordingly, the profile limbs 50 . 1 , 50 . 2 of the U reinforcing profile member 22 are not seated—and thus neither is the U reinforcing profile member 22 —at the lowest point of the round-tube girder profile member 21 in the installed setting 30 , but are offset from the centre point 40 of the round-tube girder profile member 21 or from the longitudinal plane 25 of symmetry to both sides.
  • an effective reinforcing profile member height 68 which is slightly smaller by a spacing or an amount 69 than the reinforcing profile member height 56 , results and an effective passage height 70 , which is smaller by the same spacing or amount 69 than the respective passage height 63 , of the respective passage 60 . 1 , 60 . 3 ; 60 . 2 results.
  • the effective reinforcing profile member height 68 is here approximately 71.96 millimetres.
  • the effective passage height 70 is here approximately 28.96 millimetres. Accordingly, the effective reinforcing profile member height 68 is reduced by comparison with the reinforcing profile member height 56 by the spacing or amount 69 of approximately 1.04 millimetres.
  • the scaffolding bar 20 therefore has an overall height 71 corresponding with the sum of the outer diameter 28 of the round-tube girder profile member 21 and the effective reinforcing profile member height 68 .
  • the overall height 71 is here calculated to be approximately 120.26 millimetres (see FIG. 4 ).
  • the effective passage height 70 is reduced by comparison with the passage height 63 by the amount 69 of approximately 1.04 millimetres.
  • the U reinforcing profile member 22 is preferably produced by flanging, bending over and or profiling a plate-shaped or strip-shaped, preferably flat-plane, steel sheet or steel-sheet semi-finished product (not shown in the figures) about a single flanging or bending axis on a rolling train.
  • the scaffolding bar 20 offers an advantageous possibility for the fastening of accessory components which are, in particular, already present and which are not shown in the figures, particularly standardised, preferably integrated, couplings in a length region of the round-tube girder profile member 21 , in which the U reinforcing profile member 22 also extends, and/or for an anti-lift-off securing of at least one scaffolding floor 39 , which rests on or is suspended at the round-tube girder profile member 21 and which is, in particular, present, by means of a securing bar (not shown in the figures) which is at the underside of the or the respective scaffolding floor 39 and pivotable relative thereto about a pivot axis arranged transversely, particularly perpendicularly, to the work surface of the scaffolding floor 39 .
  • the first scaffolding bar 20 . 1 and the second scaffolding bar 20 . 2 are of the same form. In other words, the stack arrangement shows two identical scaffolding bars 20 .
  • the second scaffolding bar 20 . 2 is arranged to be turned relative to the first scaffolding bar 20 . 1 through 180 degrees about the first longitudinal axis 23 of the first scaffolding bar 20 . 1 in such a way that as considered in a cross-section perpendicular to the first or second longitudinal axis 23 or 43 of the first scaffolding bar 20 . 1 , the ends 76 , which are formed or bounded by the respective base profile 49 of the respective U reinforcing profile member 22 , of the respective U reinforcing profile member 22 face away from one another in opposite directions or that the U reinforcing profile member 22 of the first scaffolding bar 20 . 1 faces away from the round-tube girder profile member 21 thereof and the reinforcing profile member 22 of the second scaffolding bar 20 . 2 faces away from the round-tube girder profile member 21 thereof in opposite directions.
  • the round-tube girder profile member 21 of the second scaffolding bar 20 . 2 lies against or on a profile limb 50 . 1 of the two substantially parallel profile limbs 50 . 1 , 50 . 2 of the U reinforcing profile member 22 of the first scaffolding bar 20 . 1 and the U reinforcing profile member 22 of the second scaffolding bar 20 . 2 lies by one profile limb 50 . 1 of its two substantially parallel profile limbs 50 . 1 , 50 . 2 against or on the round-tube girder profile member 21 of the first scaffolding bar 20 . 1 so that the profile limb axis 51 of the U reinforcing profile member 22 of the second scaffolding bar 20 .
  • a stack arrangement 75 of that kind is particularly space-saving or makes possible a particularly space-saving storage by stacking of the at least two scaffolding bars 20 ; 20 . 1 , 20 . 2 according to the invention against or on one another.
  • the said stack spacing 77 is approximately only 34.15 millimetres.
