This guidance gives details of various methods available for satisfactorily securing scaffold boards to prevent movement. Users should satisfy themselves when/which boards require tying down and that any proprietary equipment or fixing method selected meets their requirements. This product is available in PDF format only. 4 pages
This guidance gives details of the stress corrosion cracking (SCC) that can occur in certain materials when subjected to tensile stress and specific corrosive environments. Although rare in our industry, it can lead to unexpected sudden failure of certain metals. Whilst chemical environments and alloys are highly specific, this guidance explains the process by which SCC can occur and advises that specialist advice may be needed where SCC is possible or has occurred in the past. This guidance is available for pdf download only.

The TG20 Operational Guide contains detailed practical guidance for most common types of scaffolding, supported by structural research and calculation. Guidance is provided for a range of standard structures which includes independent scaffolding, interior birdcages, chimney stack scaffolds, loading bays, ladder-access towers, free-standing towers, lift shaft towers, putlog scaffolding, exterior birdcages, tube and fitting mobile towers, tube and fitting loading bays without beams, and tied independent scaffolds with three inside boards. NASC members can purchase 10 or more copies of the TG20:21 Operational Guide book at the discounted rate of £25 per unit. To do so, please email sales@nasc.org.uk
Aluminium tubes, prefabricated beams and other components are widely used throughout the scaffolding industry. Whilst aluminium is not as stiff as steel and will deflect more when subjected to equivalent loads, it is much lighter and provides great advantages with regard to manual handling or the reduction weight. As aluminium couplers are not readily available, aluminium tube and beams are invariably connected with steel couplers and joint pins. Unfortunately, when two dissimilar metals such as aluminium and steel are in contact, a phenomenon known as ‘galvanic corrosion’ can occur where the corrosion of one of the metals, in this case aluminium, can be greatly accelerated. In severe cases this could seriously affect the integrity of the scaffold structure.
