Step 3
➤
The length of the first standards on the inside of the
scaffold is 2m and on the outside of the scaffold 3m.
These are inserted with the spigot pointing upwards
into the base collar, whereby the spigots of the
standards are now at different heights.
In the next scaffolding level, the outer standards pro-
trude 1m above the decking level and are used as a
guardrail post.
Step 4
➤
At the height of the first scaffold level, the required
longitudinal and transverse ledgers can now be
inserted and wedged in place.
Step 5
➤
Bay Braces are installed by first sliding on the lower
bay brace head and loosely inserting the wedge in
the large opening of the rosette. Then the upper bay
brace head is pushed onto the rosette in the next
scaffold level. The bay brace is fixed by hammering
with a 500g hammer until it is fixed. If possible, they
should always be mounted on the outside of the
scaffold at nodes stiffened by ledgers.
➤
Depending on the static requirements, bay braces
are installed at regular intervals in the longitudinal
direction of the scaffold. They increase the stiffness
of the scaffold againstloads parallel to the façade.
Note:
It is important to note that the dimensions specified in
section 'Excerpt from the general building authority
approval Z-8.22-992' do not provide for the use of ver-
tical diagonals.
