Anyone ever read "A Short History of Tractors in Ukranian" by Marina Lewycka? It's not really about tractors but in it one of the characters is writing a history of tractors (and he happens to be Ukranian). It's a great novel - very funny.
Anyway, I've started writing a novel and one of my characters (loosely based on my dad, who was a scaffolder all his life) is writing a history of scaffolding and reminiscing about his life in scaffolding.
So my question is this: how much and in what ways has the scaffolding industry changed in the last 50 years?
Thanks guys, already found this site very helpful for some technical insights.

PS: my dad used to work for SGB and then Digby's (London-based firm)
