Study Notes
Scaffolds Overview
- Workers qualified to design scaffolds are known as "designers."
- Guardrails or personal fall arrest systems must be installed on scaffolds exceeding ten feet in height.
- A suspension scaffold that uses a two-point swing-stage anchorage is best accessed from the roof.
Types of Scaffolding
- Specialty scaffolding includes structures such as plasterers scaffolds, horse scaffolds, and window jack scaffolds.
- An interior hung scaffold is categorized as a suspended type of scaffolding.
Safety Equipment and Regulations
- Mid-Rails must be installed halfway between the guardrail top and the work surface for improved safety.
- To move a mobile scaffold with workers on it, all safety conditions must be met prior to movement.
- Self-retracting lifelines, which are encased in protective housing, extend and retract automatically, enhancing mobility and reducing tripping hazards.
Scaffold Height Limitations
- The maximum height for a Ladder Jack scaffold is set at 20 feet.
