TIME SCALE

This month we were asked to provide a safe working area on the rooftop of an eight-story building in Camperdown. The client was doing a number of tasks from replacing old flower beds and re-waterproofing the area.
Edge Protection System Used
At this job, there was a perimeter parapet wall. We utilized this to clamp our parapet clamp on to. The brackets were pre-set to the hob width, therefore, reducing noise to the hospital.
Benefits of Parapet Clamp System
It was an early start for the team as this job came with its challenges, for instance as we had to work under the hospital’s time restraints. We also had to overcome the obstacle of how we get 6-meter lengths of aluminum tubes to the eighth floor. In the end, we cut the 6-meter tubes in half and used the goods lift. This has now opened the option to do this on jobs again where 6 meters aren’t viable. The builder was super happy that there was no drilling required as to keep the noise to a minimum and also avoid any patch-ups.
Versatile Edge Rail Systems
The edge rail systems that we offer are very versatile and can adapt to many different scenarios. With noninvasive options and a wide variety of brackets, we can usually find a solution for most work-at-height needs. Also, we offer both heavy-duty steel scaffold and lightweight aluminum scaffold, sometimes used in conjunction with the edge rail system, we can usually find a suitable, cost-effective solution to eliminate your fall from height risks.
All edge rail systems are compliant with AS/NZS 4994.2 and scaffolding standards AS/NZS 4576 and AS/NZS 1576
