An interface for connecting supporting members of an audience seating system including an end plate secured to the first end of a horizontal member. The end plate includes a downwardly extending tongue and outwardly extending tabs and a hook member extending outwardly and downwardly. The upper end of the vertical member has a recess dimensioned to receive the hook member and a hanger bracket defining a space for receiving the tongue and openings for receiving the tabs. The horizontal member may be engaged to the vertical member by lowering the hook member into the recess, the tongue into the space and the tabs into the openings to create a substantially rigid engagement secured by gravity.

We claim: 1. An interface for connecting supporting members of an audience seating system, the supporting members comprising a horizontal member having a long axis, a first end and a second end and a vertical member comprising an upper end and a lower end, the interface comprising: an end plate secured to the first end of the horizontal member, the end plate comprising a downwardly extending tongue and outwardly extending tabs; a hook member extending outwardly and downwardly from the first end of the horizontal member; the upper end of the vertical member including structure defining a recess dimensioned to receive the hook member therein and including a hanger bracket below the recess, the hanger bracket defining a space for receiving the tongue and openings for receiving the tabs; whereby the horizontal member may be engaged to the vertical member by lowering the hook member into the recess, the tongue into the space and the tabs into the openings to create a substantially rigid engagement. 2. The interface of claim 1, further comprising a rounded hook receiver within the recess. 3. The interface of claim 1, wherein the vertical member further comprises a top bracket supporting a pin receiver. 4. The interface of claim 1, further comprising an end frame including front and rear end frame brackets connected by intervening structure, at least one of the end frame brackets being engageable with the top bracket. 5. The interface of claim 1, further comprising an end frame including front and rear end frame brackets connected by intervening structure, at least one of the end frame brackets being engageable with the top bracket. 6. An interface for connecting supporting members of an audience seating system, the supporting members comprising a truss having a long axis, a first end and a second end and a column comprising an upper end and a lower end, the interface comprising: an end plate secured to the first end of the truss, the end plate comprising a downwardly extending tongue and outwardly extending tabs; a partially curved hook member extending outwardly generally along the long axis and downwardly and outwardly from the first end of the truss; the upper end of the column defining a recess dimensioned to receive the hook member therein and comprising a rounded hook receiver within the recess and a hanger bracket below the recess, the hanger bracket defining a space for receiving the tongue and slots for receiving the tabs; whereby the truss may be engaged to the column by lowering the hook member into the recess, the tongue into the space and the tabs into the slots and the hook members and the hook receivers act together to draw the truss tightly to the column to create a substantially rigid engagement. 7. The interface of claim 6, wherein the vertical member further comprises a top bracket supporting a pin receiver. 8. The interface of claim 6, further comprising an end frame including front and rear end frame brackets connected by intervening structure, at least one of the end frame brackets being engageable with the top bracket. 9. The interface of claim 6, further comprising a sway brace engageable to the horizontal member at a location between the first end and the second end and engageable to the vertical member near the lower end. 10. An audience seating system, comprising: an interface for connecting supporting members of the audience seating system, the supporting members comprising a horizontal member having a long axis, a first end and a second end and a vertical member comprising an upper end and a lower end, the interface comprising: an end plate secured to the first end of the horizontal member, the end plate comprising a downwardly extending tongue and outwardly extending tabs; a hook member extending outwardly and downwardly from the first end of the horizontal member; the upper end of the vertical member defining a recess dimensioned to receive the hook member therein and comprising a hanger bracket below the recess, the hanger bracket defining a space for receiving the tongue and openings for receiving the tabs; whereby the horizontal member may be engaged to the vertical member by lowering the hook member into the recess, the tongue into the space and the tabs into the openings to create a substantially rigid engagement. 11. The audience seating system of claim 10, further comprising a rounded hook receiver within the recess. 12. The audience seating system of claim 10, wherein the vertical member further comprises a top bracket supporting a pin receiver. 13. The audience seating system of claim 10, further comprising an end frame including front and rear end frame brackets connected by intervening structure, at least one of the end frame brackets being engageable with the top bracket. 14. The audience seating system of claim 10, further comprising an end frame including front and rear end frame brackets connected by intervening structure, at least one of the end frame brackets being engageable with the top bracket.
