Why Scaffolding?
• Scaffolding is often a necessary part of building and home
maintenance.
• An oversight in erecting scaffolding could lead to a serious
accident. Setting up scaffolding is an alternative to using
ladders.
• It provides a platform for walking and for setting all your
tools. This cuts work time drastically.
• Supported scaffolds consist of one or more platforms
supported by outrigger beams, brackets, poles, legs,
uprights, posts, frames, or similar rigid support
