Types of scaffolds requiring design are those which fall outside the range fully specified in the relevant Scaffolding code of practice” There are however a number of scaffold types or elements within scaffolds that do not fall within the range covered in BS 5973 : 1993 but are required on a regular basis. This manual has been produced to provide a series of typical designs and technical information to assist withthe erection of scaffolding which falls into this category This manual is supplementary to and should be read in conjunction with BS 5973 : 1993. It does not substitute or replace it. All sketches and information contained within this manual must be read in conjunction with the following notes 4. This manual is confidential and is the exclusive property of Cape PLC. No unauthorised use, copy or disclosure, either in full or in part, is to be made without the prior permission in writing from the CAPE Design Office. 2, The information contained in this manual must be checked, prior to erection to ensure that it fully satisfies the requirements and that all loadings, dimensions, details, erection and dismantling sequences, etc. are correct and practicable, No alteration in loading oF layout is to be made without reference to the CAPE Design Office. 3. The customer must ensure that the foundations provided are adequate to support the loads imposed. No spreaders or other means of distributing the imposed loads except base plates and sole boards, are supplied by CAPE, who accept no responsibility for the consequences of defective foundations. 4, Where Cape PLC equipment is supported or suspended from an existing structure, e.g, roofs, steels, balconies, upper floors, etc., the customer must ensure that the existing structure is adequate to safely support the additional imposed loads. 5. The customer is to ensure that adequate facilities for tying or anchoring the scaffold are made available and that the structure, building, ground or concrete to which the scaffold is tied or anchored is capable of withstanding the additional imposed loads, 6. The customer is to design, supply and fix all necessary auxiliary equipment, e.g shuttering, timber bearers, steel joists, etc, and to ensure that itis capable of safely transmitting the loads axially to the scaffold tubes. 7. No sheeting, wind protection or fans, etc., to be added to the structures detailed in this manual. Where such is required, the provision of adequate ties and anchors must be arranged specifically with the CAPE Design Office. 8. All working platforms and access ladders must be at all mes in compliance with the relevant statutory regulations. 9. Unless otherwise stated, all work must comply with the code of practice. * At the time of issue = BS 5973 : 1993 "Code of Practice for Access and Working Scaffolds and Special Scaffold Structures in Steel" DN TE SK Ne, aK iwreopucrion.

TM5/1D FULLY BOARDED INDEPENDENT TIED SCAFFOLDS This section gives details of fully boarded independent tied scaffolds within the following parameters :~ Maximum Lift Height =20m Maximum Width Of Platform = 5 Boards or 4 Boards + 1 Inside Maximum Height Of Scaffold =30m Maximum No. Of Working Lifts = 6 No. Loadings = 0,75 kN/m? (Very Light Duty - TM6/3) = 1.50 kN/m? (Light Duty - TM6/4) = 2.00 kN/m? (General Purpose - TM6/5) The Technical Manual sheet number TM6/2 indicates dimension and details of scaffolds and should be read in conjunction with the relevant table (Technical Manual sheets TM6/3, TM6/4 or TM6/5). All unspecified details must comply with BS 5973. Tables on Technical Manual sheets TM6/3, TM6/4 and TM6/S indicate the maximum loadings per standard imposed on the foundations for each different case. All cases assume even loading of standards. Figures above or to the left of the bold zig-zag line indicate the maximum permitted height with single standards. For cases below or to the right of the bold zig-zag line, double standards must be fitted to sufficient height to limit the extent of single standards as above. The figures used in these tables are based on the use of new or galvanized tube. EXAMPLES : 1) Very light duty independent (0.75 kNim2), 30 m high (15 No. Lifts), fully boarded, 5 No. working lifts, maximum centres of standards = 2.7 m From table on technical manual sheet no, TM6/3 :- Maximum standard load = 2410 kg (Above and to the left of the bold zig-zag line, therefore single standards okay) 2) General purpose independent (2.0 kN/m?), 30 m high (15 No. lifts), fully boarded, 5 No. working lifts, maximum centres of standards = 2.1m From table on technical manual sheet no. TM6/5 :- Maximum standard load = 2848 kg Maximum allowable height with single standards = 24 m (12 No. lifts). Therefore fit double standards to lift No. 3.

All holes in fish plates must be fitted with the correct nuts, bolts and washers. Omission of any of these bolts could be disastrous. On no account will lap tubes with couplers be accepted in place of bolts. 2 Ladder beams must never be joined end to end with sleeve couplers and / or spliced. If ladder beams are too short to achieve the required span, then unit beams must be used. 2 Each end of span should extend through a minimum of 2 uprights and all connections must be made at node points. Both chords must be fixed to uprights with load bearing couplers, with a min. of 1 check transom (see fig below).

The Client is to be responsible for ensuring that all statutory regulations regarding lifting appliances, gear & operations are complied with.(including all tests, inspections & certification). Before being put into use for the first time, the lifting frame needs to be subjected to a thorough examination by the competent Scaffold Inspector. This should be a more stringent examination than a routine scaffold inspection and should incorporate a check to ensure that all members are in position and where practicable, vital couplers i.e. those supporting the key lifting parts, should be physically checked for tightness. Before attempting to carry out this operation, the Scaffold Inspector must ensure that a safe means of access and egress has been provided The Inspector shall then complete a green scafftag insert and place it in the holder, which must be securely attached in a prominent position on the scaffold The green Scafitag insert must be clearly marked with the safe working load, as. stated on the design drawing (SWL) which may be imposed on the lifting point of the frame. Note - dependent on the type of lifting gear being used, this may be different to (i.e. greater than) the maximum load to be lifted. A record of all inspections must be documented in the scaffold register. This examination should then be repeated every 7 days, or sooner if there is any concern that the integrity of the structure may have been affected in any way. (Note - unless stated otherwise on the design drawing, this should be determined in consultation with the competent person for lifting operations and may require an additional inspection prior to every ift In addition, a further thorough examination needs to be made by a competent person for lifting operations, when the lifting equipment is rigged and in position and prior to lifting. This is the responsibility of the Rigger or the user of the equipment.

Means of resisting inward and outward movement should be provided for scaffold structures. This will normally be by attachment with ‘ties’ to a facade or structure at a number of points. It should be established that the strength of the building or structure at the location of a tie is adequate to sustain ‘the loads which will be transferred to it. Where the structure and its components are strong enough, permission should be sought to use ties. A Tie consists of a tie member, normally a tube, and an anchorage. Various types of ties are given in BS5973 : 1993 Clause 9.4. 1.0 This Guidance is seperated into 2 sections, which give tie frequencies and arrangement notes, as follows: Section 1; Applies to unsheeted scaffold structures (See TM18/02d) Section 2; Applies to sheeted scaffold structures (See TM18/03d) 2.0 The tie frequencies given in this guidance are based upon wind loads derived from BS6399-2 : 1997 3.0 The recommendations given in Tables 1 + 2 are for Unsheeted scaffolds less than 30m high and Sheeted scaffolds less than 15m high . If scaffolds are higher they should be specially designed. 4.0 Ties should be evenly distributed over the scaffold, both horizontally and vertically. The spacing of lines of ties should not exceed 8.0m, either vertically or horizontally, but individual ties should still be within the area rules. Where the building surface permits a staggered arrangement of ties, this should be adopted in preference to a rectangular pattem. 5.0 All scaffolds should be erected and adequately tied. These ties should then be left undisturbed until the scaffold is dismantled. However where it is necessary to remove a tie, even temporarily, the scaffold will be less secure, and accordingly a higher provision of ties will be required. If in any doubt contact the CAPE design department. 6.0 The type of tie and anchorage should be selected from those given in; BS5973: 1993, clause 9.4.2 to 9.4.5 to suit the tying requirements and the nature of the facade.
