TG14:20 Supplementary Couplers and Check Couplers
£5.15
This guidance explains the differences between ‘supplementary’ and ‘check’ couplers and gives typical design applications where high coupler forces could be expected and where additional loadbearing capacity to connections may be required. It also contains guidance on coupler configurations and expected safe working loads (SWLs) where supplementary couplers are used. To ensure that SWL values are as accurate as possible, data provided within this document is based on practical testing rather than calculation.

TG25:21 Scaffold Tube Storage Racks
Non-member price £ 7.65 Member price £ 3.70 TG25:21 Scaffold Tube Storage Racks
Scaffold tube storage racks are a common feature of every scaffolding contractor’s yard and many long-term live sites. Whilst tube racks are usually constructed as basic birdcage-like structures, they generally support many tonnes of equipment, so their design needs special consideration. This guidance note considers the design, use and maintenance of scaffold tube storage racks. 6 pages

TG16:21 Anchoring to the Ground
Non-member price £ 7.65 Member price £ 3.70 TG16:21 Anchoring to the Ground
Many free-standing scaffolding structures, such as access towers, major signboards, fences and enclosures, need to be anchored to the ground, primarily to resist wind forces. Whilst all structures requiring restraint via anchoring to the ground should be subject to a bespoke design produced by a competent engineer, the guidance considers different types of anchors available and typical indicative holding capacities, the possibility of disturbing underground services, the use of guys and scaffold tube restraint. 6 pages

TG6:22 Care and Maintenance of Scaffold Boards
Non-member price £ 6.00 Member price £ 3.00 TG6:22 Care and Maintenance of Scaffold Boards
When in use, scaffold boards are often subjected to harsh conditions and mistreatment and may deteriorate to such an extent that they become unsafe. To ensure that they remain in a safe and serviceable condition, they should be subjected to regular inspections/checks and where necessary repaired/refurbished to ensure that they remain fit for purpose. This document provides guidance on the inspection, care and maintenance of scaffold boards to maximise their operational service life. This guidance is available for pdf download only.
