Summary:PURPOSE: To keep a corridor horizontal corresponding even to a truss structure having any inclination by providing an axis whose position can be adjusted at an intersection of gap members provided between an upper frame and a lower frame. CONSTITUTION: A floor panel 18 of a corridor is mounted and fixed on a nearly horizontally disposed upper frame 11 and a lower frame 12 is fixed to the underside of a truss structure comprising top chords 1, lower chords 2, web members 4 etc. Next, each end of first and second diagonal members 13, 14 which are disposed in an X-shape is pivotally supported near each end of the frames 11, 12. An axis 15 is provided at an intersection of both of the members 13, 14 so that the position of the intersection can be adjusted within a predetermined range, in the length direction of the members 13, 14. As a result, even in a truss structure having any inclination, a corridor of a catwalk 10 can be held horizontally.
