My Brother and I worked 1 1/2 Days with Skyform---we just wanted to sus out the Cradle set up---the only bad bit was humfffin the counter weights up the last couple of floors to the roofs of the Multi's...

Skyform System was simple enough---set up out riggers, set counter weights, rig cables to motors and erect the gondola's---

Yeah weights were a killer. Remember once a gang instead of getting them up used concrete blocks that were on the roof as ballast for the rig. Only problem the brickies used them as well. The story i heard was, the cradle guys inspected the rig before they started. (were'nt they lucky) A lot of choice words flew in all directions, and a few p45's followed.

PMSL---aye, yi get a few laughs in this game eh---aye, it was weights that pissed us off---good experience though---they use Cradles Offshore on some jobs---they using them on a Load of High Rise in Aberdeen at the Moment---raking out and Rendering Damp Patched---good job the Cradel Crew checked out the Balist eh---or there would have been a few damp patches in the Coveralls LOLooo WWWoooooooooooooooooooooooooosh

Total bowllocks.

The only kind of work you can carry out doing this is investigative work.

It would be impossible to do any 'actual' works safely. Suspension trauma is another issue or suspension syncope as the boffins like to call it now.

How you going to hold materials safely and carry out any works?
What about materials falling?
You would certainly need crash decking with an egress point for the abseiler at least if working over public areas.

Total bowlocks.

Obviously agree with that dave ja vu, but these kind of restrictions seem only applicable to the scaffs, every other man and his dog can do what they like. Same old story, cash is king and the scaff's are first to get booted off the job.
