Hi,
I have a Code of Practice load table from BS 5973 1990, and are reading 'Access Scaffolding' by S. Champion.
It states near the bottom of the table:
'Masonry or special duty': a bay length of 1.8mt for a 300kg/m2 loading
'Masonry or block work with storage capactity': a 1.6mt bay length for 450kg/m2 loading.
But the table does not state the lift, I read for a basic Independent Tied scaffold a 'lift height of 1.35mt for brickwork', or '1.8mt for other trades' is quoted - which would you apply to the above table to allow for these loadings.
Thanks
