ABSTRACT:
A row construction for a telescoping seating system includes a rear riser beam having a continuous horizontal slot receiving and encapsulating the rear edge of the footrest panel and a nose beam having a similar slot encapsulating the front edge of the footrest panel. The nose beam is then secured to support members which are mounted to the rear riser such that assembly of these members forces the footrest panel under compression into the opposing slots on the front and rear structural beams. Thus, the footrest panel, the front and rear structural beams and the support members form a horizontal truss. The truss construction is extended to corresponding rows of laterally adjacent sections by extending the footrest panel to bridge the joint between these adjacent sections. Thus, the corresponding rows for a number of laterally adjacent telescoping sections are constructed to form a long continuous truss which extends the complete length of the adjacent rows and moves as a unit between the extended and retracted positions.
