An apparatus for supporting workers and materials above-grade on both the eave and gable ends of a structure is disclosed. The apparatus can be combined with one or more additional staging apparatuses to create a staging system for the support of persons or materials while work is being done on a structure, e.g., roofing, siding, etc. The modular design of the apparatus simplifies installation, such that it can be readily attached to a roof or other support member of a structure by a single person, and facilitates the adjustable vertical positioning of people or materials along the walls of the structure. The staging system can also include a rail member for safety support and alternative scaffolding arrangements.

1. A staging bracket for attachment to an eave and/or a gable end of a roof of a structure comprising: a support structure having an inner rail, an outer rail, and a support platform having a distal side and a proximate side, wherein when the staging bracket is attached to the structure said distal side of said support platform is closer to said structure than said proximate side, and wherein said inner rail is coupled to said distal side and said outer rail is coupled to said proximate side of said support platform, and wherein said inner rail and said outer rail are disposed a substantially parallel relationship to each other; a wall engagement member coupled to a lower portion of said inner rail; anda roof engagement member releasably coupled to an upper portion of said inner rail, said roof engagement member designed and configured to attach to a standing seam roof, wherein said roof engagement member is extendably releasably coupleable with the roof at a first location proximate the roof edge that is substantially perpendicular to said roof engagement member, and wherein said roof engagement member includes a first portion and a second portion, said second portion having a first end nested within said first portion and a second end coupleable with the roof, andwherein when said second end is moved away from said first portion said first end travels collinearly within said first portion so as to enable said roof engagement member to couple to a second location, farther from the roof edge than the first location, without modifying said wall engagement member. 2. A staging bracket according to claim 1, wherein said second end is an interchangeable coupling for releasable attachment to the roof. 3. A staging bracket according to claim 2, wherein said interchangeable coupling is configured to releasably attach to a metal roof. 4. A staging bracket according to claim 2, wherein said interchangeable coupling is articulable. 5. A staging bracket according to claim 1, wherein said inner rail, said wall engagement member, and said roof engagement member are longitudinally expansible. 6. A scaffolding system capable of attaching to an eave and gable end of a structure comprising: first and second scaffolding devices, each of said first and second scaffolding devices having: a support structure having an inner rail, an outer rail, and a support platform having a distal side and a proximate side, wherein when the staging bracket is attached to the structure said distal side of said support platform is closer to said structure than said proximate side, and wherein said inner rail is coupled to said distal side and said outer rail is coupled to said proximate side of said support platform, and wherein said inner rail and said outer rail are disposed a substantially parallel relationship to each other;a wall engagement member coupled to a lower portion of said inner rail; anda roof engagement member releasably coupled to an upper portion of said inner rail, wherein said roof engagement member is extendably releasably coupleable with the structure at a first location proximate a roof edge that is substantially perpendicular to said roof engagement member, andwherein said roof engagement member includes a first portion and a second portion, said second portion having a first end nested within said first portion and a second end coupleable with the structure, andwherein when said second end is moved away from said first portion said first end travels collinearly within said first portion so as to enable said roof engagement member to couple to a second location, farther from the roof edge than the first location, without modifying said wall engagement member; anda platform, wherein when said first scaffolding device and said second scaffolding device are coupled to the structure, said platform rests on said first support structure and said support structure, and wherein the second portion of the roof engagement member is designed and configured to attach to a standing seam roof. 7. A scaffolding system according to claim 6, further including a bracing member, and wherein each of said outer rails includes a receiving bracket, and wherein when said first scaffolding device and said second scaffolding device are coupled to the structure said bracing member is supported by said receiving brackets. 8. A scaffolding system according to claim 6, wherein said platform member includes at least four sub-members that are configured in a substantially rectangular configuration. 9. A scaffolding system according to claim 6, wherein the second portion of the roof engagement member is an interchangeable coupling. 10. A scaffolding system according to claim 9, wherein said interchangeable coupling is a coupling designed and configured to attach to a corrugated roof. 11. A scaffolding system according to claim 6 wherein each of the second portions of their respective roof engagement members are interchangeable with alternate couplings configured to attach to a different roof type.
