Erecting Fixed Scaffold (Bricklaying)

Erection, alteration and dismantling of fixed modular or tube-and-coupler scaffold, including base preparation, progressive erection, tying and handover.

Objective

Complete the work safely by controlling falls during erection, scaffold collapse and dropped components through licensed scaffolders, firm footings and ties, progressive guardrails and controlled lowering of components.

This is the Bricklaying version. The hazards and controls are written around bricklaying work, so it differs from the other 3 trade versions of Erecting Fixed Scaffold. Compare all 4.
