The 80 mm bar gives access to the back of the plates for bolting with butterfly nuts . It was made by a scientist friend in his workshop for the SCT and bolts to a welded plate on top of the CHS pier .
It is quite heavy loading the SCT and fork on the wedge so do not make the plate too high and use a safe platform. I imagine a c11 would require some help lifting but the fork on the wedge can stand balanced until bolted so perhaps a matching loading table would help.
