Particular Scaffolds and Scaffolding Structures  Mobile scaffolds  Rakers and outriggers  Scaffolds for roof edge protection (guard railing)  Scaffolding over verandahs, gantries or roofs  Cantilevered scaffolds  Heavy duty gantries  Vessel scaffolds  Hanging scaffolds  Tube and fitting hanging scaffold  Screening or containment sheeting  Mechanical lifting appliances on a scaffold  Mast-climbing work platforms  Barrow ramps  False work or propping  Timber scaffolds 2013-3-28References:17

18. Suspended Scaffolding  A suspended scaffold is a working platform that: Is suspended by ropes from overhead outriggers, needles, parapet hooks or brackets fixed to a building or structure. Is capable of being raised and lowered by hand haulage on fiber ropes, or by hoists that are either manually or mechanically operated using wire ropes. 2013-3-28References:18

19. Terminology  Scaffold area The horizontal length of a scaffold in meters times the average height of the scaffold will give the scaffold area in square meters. So: Length (m) x Average Height (m) = Area (m 2 ) The height of the scaffold may be taken from of the height of the top- working platform or alternatively from the top guardrail. 2013-3-2819References:
