A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11959241B2) discloses a method for staging a pile on the ground using a pile staging stand assembly. The method involves providing a pile staging stand assembly with multiple stands connected to each other, each stand comprising a main frame assembly and a cable attachment fixture. A cable is secured to each fixture, joined into a lift attachment, and maneuvered via a crane to swivel the stands up to 180 degrees horizontally at the front.

Furthermore, the method includes additional steps such as lifting the pile staging stand assembly away from the ground, maneuvering pivoting arms towards and away from the ground, sliding rollers towards and away from the main frame assembly, adjusting the length of the pivoting arms, and supporting the pile with rollers at different locations. The method also specifies securing the cables at a 45-degree load angle from the main frame assembly and placing the lift attachment towards the center of the pile staging stand assembly. This innovative method aims to streamline the process of staging piles on the ground efficiently and effectively, potentially improving productivity and safety in construction and related industries.
