Two-Point Suspension Scaffolding

They are perhaps the most common type of suspended scaffold. Two-point adjustable suspension scaffolding  also known as swing-stage scaffolds.  They play a prominent role in high-rise construction. Two-Point Suspension Scaffolding. Cables connected to stirrups at each end of the platform. Their platforms are suspended by ropes, or other non-rigid means.  Each cable suspension line is considered to be one point.

Fast Scaffolding Setup

Outrigger scaffolds

A typical outrigger scaffold.  It is necessary to know perfectly the different elements of the scaffold system. The outrigger scaffold seeks to simplify the structure. An outrigger scaffold is a scaffold that consists of a platform resting on outrigger beams .  The beams project beyond the wall or face of the building or structure.

Outrigger Scaffolds

1. Make sure outrigger beams are:

• securely braced at the fulcrum point to prevent tipping.
• secured in place to prevent movement.

2. Make sure the inboard end of outrigger beams.

• tension members secured to the floor joists underfoot.
• both braced struts or tension members.
• braced struts bearing against sills in contact.

3. To prevent their displacement.

• Verify scaffolds and scaffold components.
• constructed and loaded in accordance with that design.

Scaffolding - safe erection

Suspended Scaffolds Multi-level

• Equal in number to the number of points supported.

• Rigged to support the scaffold if the suspension ropes fail.

• Suspension ropes must not be anchored to the same points. 

• Equal in strength to the suspension ropes.

Suspended Scaffold Code of Safe Practices - 2014

Suspended Scaffolds Multi-point Adjustable

• Multi-point adjustable scaffolds must be suspended.

• When two or more scaffolds are used they must not be bridged together unless.

• If bridges are not used, passage between platforms can be made only when they are at the same height .

Environmental Insurance for Sites & Facilities

Risk with scaffolds :

• Manual tasks.

• Work near overhead electric lines.

• Scaffolding collapse.

• Sobile plant and other workplace traffic

• Falls from heights.

• Mixing components from different scaffold systems.

• Falling objects.

Supported Scaffolding Safety

Tower scaffolds

Following are the causes of Tower scaffolds:-

• Dangerous methods of erection or dismantling.

• Misuse of the scaffold.

• Defects in the erected scaffold.

• Advance guard rail system.

• Through-the-trap.

Scaffolding - Types and Range

Stability of scaffolds

• Checking the training levels of scaffolders.

• The anchors specified to tie a scaffold to a structure are suitable for the base material.

• Scaffold anchors or ties are installed as erection work progresses.

• Site monitoring of scaffolders to ensure they follow proper safety standards.

• Scaffolds are not overloaded with equipment.

Safe Procedures for Fixed Scaffolding (old)

Authority and Responsibility

• Serving as the competent person.

• Ensuring all affected employees are trained in accordance with this policy.

• Directing employees who erect.

• Reviewing this policy to ensure compliance with current regulations.

• Inspecting ropes on suspended scaffolds prior to each work shift.

• Designating a qualified person to design.

• Reporting any questionable conditions that are discovered to the responsible department.

• For suspension scaffolds evaluating direct connections.

Safe Scaffolding Procedures and OSHA Inspections

Scaffold Safety Guidelines

• Be sure the footings are secure.

• Check to see that there are screens between the toeboards.

• They should be two inches by four inches.

• Check the guardrails. 

• Toe-boards at least four inches high must run along all open sides.

• Make sure that poles and legs are secure.

• Always have a ladder handy to get on and off the scaffold.

Scaffold checklist

• Number of boarded lifts
• Period of time the scaffold is required to be in place
• Intended use
• Whether there is a requirement for sheeting, netting or brickguards
• Site location
• Maximum working loads to be imposed and maximum number of people using the scaffold at any one time
• Height and length and any critical dimensions which may affect the scaffold
• Type of access onto the scaffold.

Work at height - scaffolder's safety failings

Scaffolders working at height

• • Scaffolder  should not be clambering up and down scaffolds without proper ladder.
  • At least one bay of a scaffold should remain boarded out as work progresses.
  
  
  • A minimum 3 board working platform together with a single guard-rail.
  • When lifting or lowering materials.
