An apparatus 201 and method for installing construction materials such as pipework 801 in a substantially vertical orientation comprises an elongate mounting post 202 configured to be attached to a mobile elevated work platform 701 and a head bracket 203 to support the construction material 801. The head bracket 203 is attached to the elongate mounting post and comprises a rotating mechanism 206 to rotate the head bracket 203 from a first position, in which the construction material 801 is held in a substantially horizontal position for loading and a second position (figure 10), in which the construction material is held in a substantially vertical position for installation. The construction material 801 may be secured in the head bracket 203 with a strap (602 figure 8). The rotating mechanism 206 may be powered by a motor.
