4. LEGISLATION
• Health & Safety at Work Act 1974
• Provision and Use of Work
Equipment Regulations 1998
• Management of Health & Safety at
Work Regulations 1999
• Work at Height Regulations 2005
• Manual Handling Regulations 1992

•
•
•
Places a duty of care on your employer, who
MUST;
Protect your health & safety and the health &
safety of others who they may not employ
this basic duty involves providing you with;
A SAFE PLACE OF WORK
A SAFE SYSTEM OF WORK
SAFE PLANT & EQUIPMENT
TRAINING, INFORMATION,
INSTRUCTION OR SUPERVISION
You have a duty of care to protect yourself &
others whilst at work;
You may be held liable for any harm you
cause to others at work;
Suppliers have a duty to supply equipment
that is safe to use, and to supply the relevant
information/instructions for safe and correct
use.

6. Provision & Use of Work Equipment
Regulations 1998
1.
2.
3.
These Regulations place duties on employers
& suppliers to provide equipment for use at
work which meets three basic criteria;
IT MUST BE FIT FOR USE (it must work)
IT MUST BE FIT FOR IT’S INTENDED
PURPOSE
( it must do what you want it to do)
IT MUST COMPLY LEGALLY & MEET
ALL STANDARDS
The provision of instructions, information,
and training on the safe use of work
equipment or the provision of competent
supervision is a mandatory requirement
under these regulations!
If you find any work equipment unsafe or
inoperative you must not use it, you must
take out of service and inform your
supervisor.
5
7. Management of Health & Safety at Work
Regulations 1998
These Regulations place duties on Employers to carry
out Risk Assessments on all work activities which will
identify significant risks to peoples health & safety.
Hazards found during work activities which have the
potential to cause harm need to be removed if possible
or if this is not possible they must be controlled in
such a way as to reduce the likelihood of harm to the
lowest possible risk.
Safe systems of work are formulated from these risk
assessments usually in the form of method statements
which detail a safe method of work, the hazards
identified, the controlling provisions put in place to
protect workers and any residual risks for which
appropriate PPE will be issued and must be worn.
Employers are duty bound to Manage Health & Safety
in such a way as to prevent foreseeable accidents and
injuries to people in their employment and also people
not in their employment.
Workers who are to carry out working operations
covered by a method statement must follow the safe
method of work if this cannot be done then stop work!
6
8. Work at Height Regulations 2005
These regulations place an implicit duty on places
from where it may be possible to fall.
The overriding principal for employers to comply
with these regulations is to do all that is reasonably
Practicable to prevent anyone from falling.
The hierarchy of control for managing and selecting
equipment for work at height is:
1.
2.
3.
Avoid work at height whenever possible.
Use work equipment or other measures to
prevent falls where they cannot avoid
working at height.
Where they cannot eliminate the risk of a fall,
use work equipment or other measures to
minimise the distance and consequences of a
fall should one occur.
8
9. Work at Height Regulations 2005
These regulations place an implicit duty on places
where it may be possible to fall.
Fall prevention measures include the provision of;
1.
Top hand-rail no less than 950mm;
2.
Toe boards on all open edges from which objects
can fall;
3.
Toe board minimum height 150mm;
4.
Maximum gap between the top of the toe board
and any guardrail 470mm
this usually means double guardrails are
employed, but other suitable protection can
replace the middle rail such as a substantial mesh
panel, but the requirement for this protection to
remain in place for the life of the working
platform must be enforced by management.
5.
Minimum width of a working platform must be
adequate for the work to be carried out but not
less than 600mm for persons only, if depositing
materials then minimum width must be 800mm.
6.
Maximum vertical climb to a working platform
must not exceed 9mtrs (rest deck)
7
10. Manual Handling Regulations 1994
These regulations place a duty on employers to
carry out risk assessments on activities which may
involve manually handling loads.
The risks of manual handling injuries must be
reduced by;
• Removing the need to manually handle loads;
• Redesigning the work place or equipment or
redesigning the working process to reduce
manual handling operations;
• Reducing size, weight, shape or centre of gravity
of loads;
• Making available mechanical means so loads can
be moved safely;
If loads have to be moved by human effort the
employer must provide manual handling training so
that people know how to lift & move loads correctly
so as to reduce the risk of a manual handling injury.
9
11. LEGAL REQUIREMENTS
The three main pieces of legislation /
codes of practice governing the use
of scaffolding are:
•Work at Height Regulations 2005
•BS EN12811-1
•Regulation 12 (10) - WAHR Inspections are required by competent
persons:
•Training.
•Knowledge.
•Experience.
•Under supervision.
10
12. LEGAL REQUIREMENTS
•Regulation 12 - WAHR - Inspections are
required on all scaffolding from which a
person can fall :
•Before use
•After substantial alteration
•After adverse weather or occurrence
•Within every seven days
11
18. SYSTEM
SCAFFOLDING
There are numerous types of
system scaffolding on the market and
they all have their good points and bad
points. The three types of system
scaffolding we are concentrating on in
this course are probably the most
popular:
•
Alloy Tower
•
Kwikstage
•
Cuplok
17
33. BOARDED PLATFORMS
Faults that should be checked for when
inspecting a boarded platform are:
• Oversail no less than 50mm.
• Oversail no more than 150mm.
• No gaps in working platform.
• Correctly spaced transoms.
•Max.1.2m for visually graded
boards.
• Boards fixed to prevent movement.
• Not Damaged.
• No undue cracks.
• Not contaminated.
• Not banded or Scaffplated.
32
35. SWIVEL COUPLER
Used to connect any two tubes at any
angle other than 90°, often used with a
small butt to splice joints which require
staggering.
34
36. SCAFFOLDING TERMINOLOGY
•Bay. - Distance between standards.
• Brace- Tube at an angle to give stability.
• Guardrail - To stop persons falling.
• Ledger - Tube supporting transoms.
• Lift - Distance between ledgers.
• Soleboard - placed under baseplate to spread
weight on soft ground.
• Standard - Upright tube.
• Ties - Means of fixing scaffold to structure.
• Toeboard - Upstand to prevent tools falling.
• Transom - Tubes to support platform.
• Working platform - set of boards to work on.
35
37. SCAFFOLDING TERMINOLOGY
There are three types of bracing used in
scaffolding, with three distinct functions and they
are:
• Ledger brace
- to add rigidity to it.
• Sway brace
- to stop it from swaying.
• Plan brace
- to stop it twisting.
The foundations or base of a scaffold is of vital
importance and must be adequate to carry the
weight of the scaffold and any load to be placed
on it. The three main criteria when inspecting the
base of a scaffold is:
• Firm and level base.
• Base plates at all times.
• Soleboards when required.
36
39. SCAFFOLD INSPECTION
All scaffolding must be inspected at the
four times previously mentioned, by a
competent person. This inspection must be
completed before the end of the working period
and after completing the inspection they must
provide the report or a copy of it to the person
responsible for the scaffolding, within 24 hours.
This report must include the following:
•Name & address of the person on whose behalf
the inspection was carried out.
•Location of the scaffold inspected.
•Date & time of inspection.
•Details of any faults identified.
•Any action taken to rectify those faults.
•Any further action required.
•Name & position of person making the report.
38
41. REASONS WHY SCAFFOLDS
COLLAPSE
•Constructed with inadequate materials.
•Inadequate for the intended purpose.
•Erected by incompetent people.
•Placed on inadequate foundations.
•Overloaded.
•Undermined.
•Altered by incompetent people.
•Hit by machinery or shock loaded.
•Subjected to excessive wind loads by being
sheeted, whether flexible or solid.
•Not regularly inspected by competent people
40
42. TYING SCAFFOLDS TO
STRUCTURES
Adequate stability for most scaffolds is
achieved by tying them to the structure, these
ties need to be positive two way ties. They
are usually constructed from tubes & load
bearing fittings in different configurations
depending on the type of structure being tied
to. Any scaffold which has been sheeted or
debris netted will require more ties than one
without, so no scaffold should be sheeted or
debris netted without consultation with the
scaffolding company. Any structure used to
tie scaffolding to must be strong enough to
take the weight and stress of the scaffolding
and any weight to be placed on it. Most
structures would be classed as normal facades
and would be tied using one of the five most
common methods of tying scaffolding which
are:
41
43. TYING SCAFFOLDS TO
STRUCTURES
•Through Tie
•Box Tie
•Anchor Tie
•Lip Tie
•Raker Tie
Other methods used are:
•Reveal Tie
•Buttress ties.
Ties would usually start at the four metre
level then as a rule of thumb they would be
every other lift and every other standard.
42
47. TYING SCAFFOLDS TO
STRUCTURES
LIP TIES
RAKER
TIE
The maximum length of
raker is 21feet or 6 metres
because that is the longest
scaffold tube and they
should not be jointed for
rakers.
46
49. LADDERS
•
TIED AT TOP AROUND STILES.
•
TIED IN MIDDLE (WHEN
NECESSARY.
•
FIRM & LEVEL FOOTING.
•
GOOD CONDITION.
•
TOP RUNG LEVEL OR JUST
ABOVE STEPPING OFF POINT.
•
4 : 1 RATIO (APPROX. 75°)
•
NOT PAINTED.
•
PROJECTING AT LEAST 1.05M
OR WITH SUITABLE HANDHOLD.
48
52. PROTECTING THE PUBLIC
• CAP TUBES BELOW HEAD HEIGHT
• PROTECT ALL SHARP EDGES
• HIGHLIGHT HAZARDOUS TUBES
• AMPLE HEADROOM
• PROTECTION FAN OR GANTRY
• SIGNS AND BARRIERS.
• SHEETING / DEBRIS MESH.
51
55. PRE - ERECTION CHECKS
Points to check before allowing the
erection of any type of scaffolding:
•Is the surface to be erected on firm and
level and will it take the weight of the
scaffolding and everything to be placed
on it.
•Are there sufficient materials to
complete the scaffold or the part to be
erected.
•Are the materials in good condition.
•Is the access and egress suitable.
•Are the persons erecting the scaffolding
competent & have they seen and
understood a risk assessment and if
required a method statement.
54
56. PRE - ERECTION CHECKS CONT.
•On soft ground solepads or soleboards
must be used to spread the weight.
•Any sole pad must be a minimum
length of 450mm (18”).
•On concrete or steel, base plates may
now be omitted.
•At all times ladders must be used to
gain access to all levels of scaffolding.
•Ladders should be placed at an angle
of 4 -1 (75°) and should be tied at the
top.
•Ideally ladder access towers should be
separate from the main scaffolding.
55
57. DISMANTLING PROCEDURES
Points to check before dismantling any
type of scaffolding:
•Have any ties been removed?
•Have any ledgers been removed?
•Have any transoms been removed?
•Have any braces been removed.
•Have any other structural parts been
removed?
•Is there any damage to the scaffolding?
•Are there any changes to the ground
conditions?
•Has the area been cordoned off with
barriers and signs to warn others?
56
61. HANDOVER CERTIFICATE
This will show a scaffold is, Fit for use,
fit for purpose & will comply with all
legal requirements.
60
62. PROTECTION FROM
FALLS OF SCAFFOLDERS
Basic principles of SG4:10 “Preventing Falls
From Scaffolding”
•Scaffolders will fit an advanced guardrail on
all lifts before accessing it, if this is not
possible they will follow these rules.
•Scaffolders will wear harnesses at all times
while erecting, altering & dismantling
scaffolding.
•Scaffolders will work on a three board wide
correctly supported platform.
•Scaffolders will work behind a minimum of
a single guardrail protection.
•If the two bullet points above can not be
followed and the scaffolders are at four
metres or above , then they will clip on their
harnesses to an adequate anchorage point
above head height or if not possible at foot
height or above.

As you can see today's course is Scaffold Inspection Competency & my name is Bob Robinson, my experience is ……….. The course is two days duration, the majority theory & some practical, with questionnaire/s to see if the information given has been retained.Toilets are situated ……….. There is no smoking but there will be ample breaks for those that do. The fire alarms sound like …………. & if they go off we will leave quickly & quietly by the nearest exit which is situated …………. Any questions before we start?
Run thro’ itinerary, expanding on points where necessary.
Go thro’ aims & objectives, expanding on points as required.
As each bullet point is revealed go thro’ them explaining where they fit into the use, erection, dismantling & inspection of Scaffolding e.g. Constr. Regs. Is an implicit duty, which means you can not change it or bend the rules, they must be followed exactly.
Explain each point after reading them out.

Explain that although there is numerous legislation and codes of practice covering persons at work that these are the main two. As each bullet point is revealed go thro’ them explaining where they fit into the use, erection, dismantling & inspection of scaffolding e.g. Constr. Regs. Is an implicit duty, which means you can not change it or bend the rules, they must be followed exactly. BS 5973, they are recommendations & should be followed at all times, whenever possible.
Read through and explain the slide on the relevant times to inspect scaffolding, the requirement to do a report of that inspection, although that is explained in more detail later and that this info answers a question in the questionnaire.
These are the 5 Basic types of Scaffolding which you would be expected to inspect without more experience under this qualification.
Explain the main component parts of an independent scaffolding, asking the question (what makes a scaffold independent) and explain the answer.
Explain the main uses of birdcage scaffolding, the reason for its name etc.
Explain the uses, the pros & cons of putlog, where the name comes from etc.
Explain the uses, what makes the different types of scaffolding different i. e. number of standards etc., what makes them static / mobile.
Explain about the different types of system and that there are others, some of the pros & cons of each system and the importance of the user guide of each system before inspecting.
Explain about alloy towers but again explain about the need to have the particular assembly guide for the type being used and also the importance of an alloy tower course if this is a regular type of scaffolding used not just for erection but inspection also.
If Kwikstage is a usual type of system used, get them from the picture in their books, to carry out this simple component ID exercise.
Standard – specifically a 2m standard, which can be seen from the 4 “V” pressings shown.
Brace – although we can’t be sure, experience says this is a 3.54 brace for an 8ft. Bay. Always braced from the bottom “V” pressing to just under the top working platform.
Transom – in this case a 1.2m transom as can be seen from the 5 board wide working platform.
Steelstage – rather than battens, which may be seen from the toeboards being hollow when seen from the back.
Ledger – again probably 2.4m long also the same component used for the guardrail, shown only as a single guardrail, which is because it is an old drawing.
Universal Jack – actually looks more like an adjustable base & head jack because you can see screw thread both above & below the collar but should always be a universal jack these days.
Toeboard – using Steelstage as can be seen from the hollow back, a 1.2m Steelstage, would actually be outside the standards on end toeboard brackets not inside as shown.
Guardrail – come in 2 sizes 1.8m (6ft.) & 2.4m (8ft.) as we have said should be double these days, or using Kwikguards / brickguards to close the gap to less than 470mm between guardrail & toeboard.
This is a picture of the node point on Kwikstage system scaffolding as you can see there are four components fixed to make this node point i.e. Standard (with 2 high v pressings & 2 low v pressings) Transom (t section) which supports and captures the battens / Steelstage & ledgers (tubular section) there are 2 showing in this picture. There is also another low v pressing not visible which may take a fourth component. As you can see, ledgers are fitted to the high v pressings & transoms to the low v pressings.
This is a picture of a 2 bay Cuplok independent showing the 8 basic components required to erect this type of system scaffolding, it also shows the node point (point of no deflection) where all components in this type of system fit together, the ledgers & transoms have a blade which fits into the lower “cup” (fig 1) and when all the components of each node point are in place the upper “cup” is fastened down (fig 2) and fixed with hammer blows to tighten (fig 3).
Click for title, and before revealing the components on each mouse click get the delegates to identify them from the bag of fittings and after they have completed the exercise explain each component and their uses from the bag then reveal each one in turn with the pictures following on the next slides.
Click for title, ask for answers in order, standards, jacks, ledgers, transoms, return transoms, braces, 2.4m Steelstage, 1.2m Steelstage, toeboard brackets and end toeboard brackets and as each answer is given click. All of the above totals would usually be rounded up to the nearest 10 in case of damage or miscalculation, except for the single items. If a design drawing is issued the quantities will normally be exact so erection exactly to the design must be carried out, firstly for safety reasons and secondly because the quantities will follow the design and you may run out of certain materials.
