After this course, participants will have the scaffolding knowledge and practical experience needed to implement safe and proper scaffold erection techniques with consideration of safety, risk management, and structural integrity during scaffold assembly and disassembly:

Comprehending the Components and Types of Scaffolds

• Get familiar with various supported scaffold, suspended scaffold, and mobile scaffold types and their applications.
• Comprehend the basic building block of scaffolds: standards, ledgers, transoms, base plates, braces, and their roles in maintaining stability.

Erection Procedures for Scaffolds

• Work with scaffolder and other scaffold workers to integrate guidance resources and erect scaffolding structure starting from the base to framework.
• Recognizing the manufacturer’s guide and protocol to avoid scaffolding missteps that can result in safety hazards.

Load Bearing and Stability of Scaffolds

• Develop the capacity to measure how heavy scaffolding can be while ensuring it does not collapse through proper load distribution.
• Learn ways to double-check the level of the scaffold and do ensure there is a stable surface to hold the scaffold firmly without it failing the structural integrity test.

For Scaffold Erectors Personal Protective Equipments (PPE)

• Learn what PPE for scaffold erectors entail such as helmets, fall arrest systems, and safety harnesses.
• Describe the correct procedures for applying and wearing Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and its relevance in injury mitigation during scaffold erections.

Mitigation of Hazards and Safety in Scaffold Erection

• Explain the potential dangers that arise during the process of erecting scaffolds such as tools falling, structures being off-balance, and environmental factors.
• Describe how safety guard constructions control these hazards such as the use of guardrails and toe boards and proper communication with personnel.

Training will be conducted via Microsoft Team Meeting, online. Meeting invites will be shared on the day before the first day of training.

Successful candidates will be awarded with completion certificate awarded by Phoenix Safety Consultants UK
