Platform structures and platform assemblies are provided for supporting a plurality of radio frequency (RF) antennas and the weight of one or more workers. One platform structure provided herein includes a steel radial beam extending from an RF tower and a plurality of steel arms welded to the radial beam. The platform structure also includes a first front plate having a front facing portion and an angled portion, where the front facing portion of the first front plate is welded to a first steel arm. Also included is a second front plate having a front facing portion and an angled portion, where the front facing portion of the second front plate is welded to a second steel arm. The platform structure further includes a first side plate having a side facing portion and an angled portion. The side facing portion of the first side plate is welded to a third steel arm. The platform structure also includes a second side plate having a side facing portion and an angled portion, where the side facing portion of the second side plate is welded to a fourth steel arm.

1. A platform assembly comprising: first, second, and third platform structures, each platform structure respectively including a radial beam and a grating supported by the radial beam, the radial beam constructed to connect to and extend substantially horizontally away in a radial direction from a vertical support structure and to support a weight of a human, each platform structure respectively defining at least four mounting locations arranged in three intersecting vertical mounting planes, including a first front mounting location spaced apart from a second front mounting location defined in substantially co-planar relationship in a front vertical mounting plane of the three intersecting vertical mounting planes, at least one first side mounting location substantially defined in a first side vertical mounting plane of the three intersecting vertical mounting planes, and at least one second side mounting location substantially defined in a second side vertical mounting plane of the three intersecting vertical mounting planes, wherein the front vertical mounting plane is perpendicular to the radial direction of the radial beam and is located radially outward from the entire radial beam, wherein the first front mounting location and the second front mounting location are spaced apart at a sufficient distance to provide for proper antenna function when antennas are mounted adjacent the first front mounting location and second front mounting location, andwherein the first, second, and third platform structures are connected together such that the respective front vertical mounting planes, the respective first side vertical mounting planes, and the respective second side vertical mounting planes of the first, second, and third platform structures are substantially hexagonally arranged whereby the first side vertical mounting plane of each of the first, second, and third platform structures is substantially coplanar with an adjacent second side vertical mounting plane of a directly adjacent platform structure of the first, second, and third platform structures. 2. The platform assembly of claim 1, further comprising: a first side pipe having a first end and a second end, the first end of the first side pipe connected at the first side mounting location of the first platform structure, and the second end of the first side pipe connected to the second side mounting location of the second platform structure;a second side pipe having a first end and a second end, the first end of the second side pipe connected to the first side mounting location of the second platform structure, and the second end of the second side pipe connected to the second side mounting location of the third platform structure; anda third side pipe having a first end and a second end, the first end of the third side pipe connected to the first side mounting location of the third platform structure, and the second end of the third side pipe connected to the second side mounting location of the first platform structure, wherein each one of said side pipes is respectively configured to support a plurality of antenna supports. 3. The platform assembly of claim 1, wherein the first front mounting location defines at least a first aperture positioned on a first side of the radial beam, wherein the second front mounting location defines at least a second aperture positioned on an opposite second side of the radial beam, wherein the first aperture is configured to support a first antenna support configured to support a first vertical antenna, and wherein the second aperture is configured to support a second antenna support configured to support a second vertical antenna. 4. The platform assembly of claim 1, wherein the front mounting locations are each defined by a separate plate. 5. The platform assembly of claim 1, wherein the front mounting locations are connected through one or more arms to the radial beam. 6. The platform assembly of claim 1, wherein the first front mounting location is connected through an angled plate to the first side mounting location. 7. The platform assembly of claim 6, wherein the second front mounting location is connected through a second angled plate to the second side mounting location. 8. The platform assembly of claim 1, wherein said platform assembly comprises an antenna support connected to each respective one of said first front mounting locations and said second front mounting locations. 9. The platform assembly of claim 8, wherein the antenna supports are arranged in a substantially vertical configuration, each antenna support configured to support a radio frequency antenna. 10. The platform assembly of claim 1, wherein the vertical support structure is a tower. 11. The platform assembly of claim 1, wherein the first platform structure is configured to support a weight of a human independently of the second and third platform structures, the second platform structure is configured to support a weight of a human independently of the first and third platform structures, and the third platform structure is configured to support a weight of a human independently of the first and second platform structures. 12. The platform assembly of claim 1, further comprising first, second, and third side gratings, the first side grating connected between the first platform structure and the second platform structure, the second side grating connected between the second platform structure and the third platform structure, the third side grating connected between the third platform structure and the first platform structure. 13. The platform assembly of claim 1, further comprising 15 antenna supports connected to and supported by the platform structures.
