Scaffolding Wetherby

Scaffolding - A Brief Guide: A system for providing tradesmen with a temporary but safe platform for undertaking their duties upon homes and other buildings, scaffolding is typically made up of steel tubes and fixtures which are bolted together and boarded with timber planks. Protecting the public and occupiers from falling debris and dust is also a key aim of scaffolding, helping make the general environment safer.

A scaffold is built using several different fittings that may include: scaffold boards, right angle clamps, base plates, putlogs, ladder clamps, ledgers, midrails, couplers, facade braces, swivel clamps, ladders, diagonal braces, sole boards, standards, limpet clamps, guard rails, toeboards, board clamps, spade ends and sills.

To confuse the situation even more, there are shoring scaffolds, trestle scaffolding, double scaffolds, suspended scaffolding, tower scaffolds, rolling scaffolds, tube and fitting scaffolding, cantilever scaffolds, confined space scaffolds, patented scaffolding and single scaffolds (bricklayers scaffolding), each type covering its own particular function.
