FAQs

How does scaffold work?

The main purpose of erecting a scaffold is to provide workers with a safe working platform and an access solution suitable enough to walk or work across. By adhering to the specified European Standard, anyone who uses a scaffold can expect to be safe. These regulations are separate from the material composition of the scaffold.

What is a hanging scaffold?

Hanging scaffolds are a type of fixed suspended scaffold, supported only by attachment points at the level of the platform and not by additional legs or frames. Hanging scaffolds provide a safe access platform for work requiring height.

What is a birdcage scaffolding?

Birdcage scaffolding is a type of scaffolding that has been designed for heavy-duty use. Because birdcage scaffolds are typically wider than conventional scaffolds, the number of braces increase to compensate for the increased stress on the structure.

What is crash-deck scaffolding?

A crash-deck scaffold is a temporary structure used to carry out repairs/renovations at ceiling heights. Although crash decks are usually used for lighter tasks, they can be used for heavier work if necessary.

What is the swing stage scaffolding?

A swing stage scaffold is a scaffold platform that swings to and from a building just like a stage. It swings up and down with the help of ropes tied to a catenary wire or attached to support columns. It is typically used for flat building exterior repairs or painting. The swing stage is a common form of suspended scaffold that comes in a variety of designs and configurations.

What is a cantilever scaffold?

A cantilever scaffold is another scaffold which is usually erected to angle out from a building structure. Cantilever scaffolds can be installed in areas where conventional scaffolds will not fit. This is useful for commercial projects where surrounding structures are tight.

How long will it take to install a scaffolding platform?

Well, it really depends on the kind of scaffold as well as the size and complexity of the scaffold. Normally, it takes between a few hours and two days.

Do you need a government permission to set up scaffolds?

You will only need permission if you need to erect a scaffold outside your property. If any part of the scaffold will extend up to the road or pavement outside your property, you should obtain a government license or permit from the local council officials.

How far can your scaffold platform extend out from the building?

Vertically: Every 20 ft. (6.1m) or less for scaffolding of fewer than 3 ft. (0.91m) in width; Every 26 ft. (7.9m) or less for scaffolding of more than 3 ft. (0.91m) in width. Horizontally: At each secured end; At intervals of not more than 30 ft. (9.1m) from just one end.

What’s the maximum safe amount of load a scaffold can carry?

To calculate this estimate, multiply 35 sq ft by 25 pounds/sq ft and it can be seen that the scaffold cannot carry over 875 pounds of materials. Thus, only 3 persons (each weighing 250 pounds) and another 125 pounds of tools or materials can be safely loaded onto the scaffold at the same time.

How safe is a scaffold?

In the scaffold has been built by experts and then erected following the correct regulations, the scaffold is safe and secure. Professionally constructed scaffolds will sit safely in any surface type, from an uneven or smooth ground to a sloppy surface. This is because there are some adjustable vertical components on the platforms which are part of such scaffolding systems. These adjustable components are used to compensate for ground irregularities.

Is the scaffolding required for roof works?

Yes, a scaffold with an edge is required for all work on the roof. From their robust design to their durability, scaffolds make it possible for workers to safely and efficiently complete jobs of all kinds. They also help to safeguard people working or working on the ground. A roof with no edge is very difficult to work on and makes moving materials and tools around the roof very dangerous. Without an edge, the probability of falling is extremely high.

What should the maximum height of a mobile scaffolding platform be?

The ideal minimum height to base length ratio for all freestanding scaffolding platforms is 3:1. A mobile scaffold platform must have a maximum height of 9m for general use.

What is the maximum gap permitted between scaffold planking?

Government standards require that the spaces between scaffold planks and uprights or between the scaffold planks will be no more than 1″ wide unless the employer can demonstrate that a wider gap is necessary for safety. However, the platform must be fully decked or planked.

Is it advisable to use a ladder on a scaffold platform?

In most instances, it is illegal to use ladders on scaffolding. The main reason for using scaffolding is to help reduce the risk of using ladders. Placing the ladder on the ground as intended carries less risk than placing it on the scaffold.

What is the maximum length of time a scaffold can stay up?

In most cases, a scaffold can remain in place for days, weeks or even months.

What is the maximum height workers can ascend with a scaffold?

To keep safe, it is important that workers must tie the scaffolding structure to the building at specific intervals once the working height is more than 3 times the smallest width of the scaffold tower. It is necessary to have a 5-ft wide platform fastened if the height is more than 15 ft. high.

Can scaffold platforms be set up permanently?

The scaffold forms part of the structure under construction and reinforces the work being done and can be temporary or semi-permanent. Our team has a wealth of experience in this sector, and are on hand to offer any advice you may need. We are here to provide you with quotations for scaffolding hire.
