연합인증

연합인증 가입 기관의 연구자들은 소속기관의 인증정보(ID와 암호)를 이용해 다른 대학, 연구기관, 서비스 공급자의 다양한 온라인 자원과 연구 데이터를 이용할 수 있습니다.

이는 여행자가 자국에서 발행 받은 여권으로 세계 각국을 자유롭게 여행할 수 있는 것과 같습니다.

연합인증으로 이용이 가능한 서비스는 NTIS, DataON, Edison 등이 있습니다.

한번의 인증절차만으로 연합인증 가입 서비스에 추가 로그인 없이 이용이 가능합니다.

다만, 연합인증을 위해서는 최초 1회만 인증 절차가 필요합니다. (회원이 아닐 경우 회원 가입이 필요합니다.)

연합인증 절차는 다음과 같습니다.

최초이용시에는
ScienceON에 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 로그인 (본인 확인 또는 회원가입) → 서비스 이용

그 이후에는
ScienceON 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 서비스 이용

연합인증을 활용하시면 KISTI가 제공하는 다양한 서비스를 편리하게 이용하실 수 있습니다.

The method of claim 1, further comprising the step of: cutting at least one cut beam having a cut beam length; and wherein said aligning step comprises the step of aligning end to end the first beam, the second beam and the cut beam to form a beam assembly having a beam assembly length corresponding to a sum of the first standard length, the second standard length and the cut beam length, wherein the beam assembly length corresponds to the predetermined row length. 4. The method of claim 3, wherein said cutting at least one cut beam step comprises the step of cutting at least one cut beam having a cut beam length from a beam having a length selected from the plurality of standard lengths, the cut beam length comprising an integer multiple of one half of the seat width. 5. The method of claim 4, wherein the cut beam length comprises an odd integer multiple of one half of the seat width. 6. The method of claim 3, wherein said cutting at least one cut beam step comprises the step of cutting at least one cut beam having a cut beam length from a beam having a length selected from the plurality of standard lengths, the cut beam length comprising a custom length such that the beam assembly reaches the predetermined row length without requiring customization of all beams forming the beam assembly. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein the cut beam is cut from a beam having the first standard length or the second standard length. 8. The method of claim 1, further comprising the step of: selecting a third beam having a third standard length from the plurality of beams having the plurality of predefined standard lengths, the third standard length being different than the first standard length and the second standard length; and wherein said aligning step comprises the step of aligning end to end the first beam, the second beam and the third beam to form a beam assembly. 9. A method of assembling a row of seating having a predetermined row length, comprising the steps of: aligning at least two beams from a plurality of beams having at least two predefined standard lengths end to end to form a beam assembly such that the predetermined row length is reached; supporting the beam assembly in a substantially horizontal position with a plurality of supports; selecting a plurality of seating components of a standard size comprising a plurality of seat bottoms; attaching a number of left seat connectors equal to the number of selected seat bottoms and a number of right seat connectors equal to the number of selected seat bottoms to the beam assembly such that a left seat connector is positioned to attach to a left side of a seat bottom and a right seat connector is positioned to attach to a right side of a seat bottom; defining a space between adjacent seat bottoms; and adjusting the space between adjacent seat bottoms by shifting at least one of the left and right seat connectors along said beam assembly so that the row of seating reaches the predetermined length without requiring customization of the plurality of seating components. 10. The method of claim 9, further comprising the step of extending the left and right seat connectors forward in a substantially horizontal position. 11. The method of claim 10, further comprising the step of pivotably attaching the plurality of seat bottoms to the left and right of seat connectors, each of the plurality of seat bottoms being separately pivotable about an axis through the seat connectors. 12. The method of claim 11, further comprising configuring the left and right seat connectors such that the plurality of seat bottoms are gravity lifted. 13. The method of claim 12, the step of configuring the left and right seat connectors such that the plurality of seat bottoms are gravity lifted further comprises providing left and right seat connectors each comprising: a saddle bracket portion comprising an inner pivot channel; a pin portion comprising a pin protruding therefrom; and wherein, when the pin portion is angled with respect to the saddle bracket portion at an insertion angle, the pin is insertable into and removable from the inner pivot channel, and such that when the pin portion is angled with respect to the saddle bracket portion at an angle other than the insertion angle, the pin is retained in the inner pivot channel. 14. A method of providing a seating arrangement comprising the steps of: specifying a desired first row length of a first row of seating; specifying a desired second row length of a second row of seating, the first length being different than the second length; forming the first row of seating with a first plurality of beams aligned end to end and supported in a substantially horizontal position, at least one of the first plurality of beams having a first length and at least another of the first plurality of beams having a second length different than the first length, the first length and the second length selected such that a combined length of the first plurality of beams is generally equal to the desired first row length; forming the second row of seating with a second plurality of beams aligned end to end and supported in a substantially horizontal position, at least one of the second plurality of beams having a third length and at least another of the second plurality of beams having a fourth length different than the third length, the third length and the fourth length selected such that a combined length of the second plurality of beams is generally equal to the desired second row length; connecting a first plurality of seats to the first plurality of beams, at least some of said first plurality of seats having a first standard width, a combined width of said first plurality of seats being generally equal to the desired first row length; and connecting a second plurality of seats to the second plurality of beams, at least some of said second plurality of seats having a first standard width, a combined width of said second plurality of seats being generally equal to the desired second row length. 15.
