Scaffolding Chinnor

A Brief Guide to Scaffolding: Generally speaking made from steel fittings and tubes, a scaffold is basically a temporary structure which is erected to provide a safe working area for builders engaging in their work on homes and structures in Chinnor. And it's not merely construction workers who get protection from the scaffolding, because it also safeguards passers by and people working or living in the building, from falling debris and dust and other threats.

The various parts that are assembled to form a scaffold include: base plates, limpet clamps, right angle clamps, spade ends, diagonal braces, guard rails, ladder clamps, midrails, facade braces, scaffold boards, putlogs, standards, ledgers, sole boards, toeboards, ladders, couplers, swivel clamps, sills and board clamps.

To confuse things even more, there are single scaffolding, trestle scaffolds, patented scaffolding, tube and fitting scaffolds, confined space scaffolds, double scaffolding, scaffold towers, suspended scaffolding, rolling scaffolds, shoring scaffolds and cantilever scaffolding, each type serving its own specific objective. The more likely type that you'd have on your house in Chinnor, is the single or bricklayer's scaffold.
