Scaffolding

Scaffolding creates working platforms where ladders stop being practical. Frame-and-brace systems are the main class, with rolling baker towers for interior work and formwork systems filed alongside.

Cómo funciona

Frames stack on base plates or screw jacks, locked by cross braces, carrying planks or decks rated for crew and material loads; ties to the structure hold height beyond the free-standing ratio. Baker towers roll on locking casters at low heights for finish trades. Erection, alteration, and daily inspection run under a competent person.

Tipos y variantes

Frame & Brace Supported Scaffold: Modular welded frames and cross braces that stack into supported scaffolding.
Baker Scaffold: Narrow rolling scaffold that fits through doorways for interior work.
Formwork Systems: Panel and shoring systems that form and support poured concrete.

Cómo elegir

Work height, load, and duration divide the choices: baker towers for one- or two-trade interior work at low height, frame systems for facades and sustained multi-crew loads. Platform rating (light/medium/heavy duty), full planking, guardrails above 10 ft, and competent-person oversight are the compliance spine of any setup.

Preguntas frecuentes

What is the difference between frame scaffold and a baker tower?

Scale. Baker units are narrow rolling platforms for interior finish work at modest heights; frame-and-brace systems stack to serve facades and heavy trades, tied to the structure as they rise.

At what height do guardrails become mandatory?

Above 10 ft in construction — full guardrail systems (top rail, midrail, toeboard) or personal fall arrest. Fully planked platforms and safe access apply at every height.

Who may erect and modify scaffolding?

Erection runs under a competent person, who also inspects before each shift and after any event that could affect stability — alterations by anyone else are how scaffolds fail.
