Folding Ladder Assembly for an Elevated Platform

Folding ladder assembly includes upper and lower ladder sections, and first, second, and third linkage assemblies. First linkage assembly includes at least a first linkage assembly linkage member. Second linkage assembly includes at least a second linkage assembly first linkage member pivotably coupled to upper and lower ladder sections. Third linkage assembly includes at least portions of the first linkage assembly linkage member and the second linkage assembly first linkage member. Movement of the first linkage assembly results in movement of the upper ladder section, the second linkage assembly, the third linkage assembly, and the lower ladder section.
