Just a little question, why not simply posing the catapult on the scutum ??? You have so your stand and your defence... Is it possible to imagine a stand fix on the top the scutum, like the medievals crossbowmen... For the weight of my catapult , It's about 5 kilogrammes... not far of modern guns. You can arm and fire easy without tripod.
I disagree with you, curved wooden arms, if they are little, are very difficult to do. It's the reason which I prefer to take the desciption of the whose of Vitruvius, who explain us all the way to make them with all the proportions about his foramen.
