reveal ties

'In cases where it is impractical to drill into the surface of a building for screw or anchor ties, or where the quality of the fabric of the building is not known, or where it is impractical to open windows for tube and fitting ties, the attachment of the scaffold may be made by reveal ties - which rely on friction.'

'When used in scaffolds greater than four lifts the scaffold should be seperately designed although it is recommended that no more than 50% of ties to a facade should be reveal ties.' TG20:08 Volume 1 - 5.4.5 'Reveal Ties'

It was the recommendation in BS5973 - no more than 50% reveal ties in an un-sheeted scaffold and 25% of a sheeted scaffold, although now a sheeted scaffold would need a design anyway.

I thought everyone knew that:)

reveal tie packing

if you do use reveal ties be warned never use timber packing directly on the tube and reveal. the timber shrinks in a couple of days rendering the tie useless. use thick rubber or neoprene instead
 
Matey, dont mention, Thick rubber or Neoprene, swifty will take one of his funny turns again. He is a bit like father Jack.:laugh::laugh::laugh:
 
i dont ever intend using em again but thanks for that tip lad good bit of info well appreciated.
