The scaffold safety system at WM Shed & Scaffolding is considered as being a very important structure rather than a temporary system. On any project we are engaged in, we have a duty of ensuring the safety of the workers, pedestrians, and the surrounding property. The attention is paid to safe scaffold installation and frequent inspection. We have a defined and professional procedure to ensure that all the scaffolds are of maximum safety and legality.

The Importance of Scaffold Safety to us

Scaffolds are elevated structures that support people, tools, and materials, therefore, they are among the most safety-critical components of any job site. In case the scaffolding is not installed or does not check the correct inspection, the hazards increase significantly. This is why we follow very strict procedures and industry tested practices to provide safe, stable and reliable scaffolding systems throughout the entire life cycle of every project.

Step 1:We Start With a Good Site Assessment.

We have a thorough analysis of the site before we install anything. We examine the ground and the amount of weight that the ground can bear, the height of the building and the job that should be done. Foot traffic, nearby buildings, and local safety regulations are also taken into account by us. Such planning enables us to identify potential hazards beforehand and create the scaffold that is suitable to the location and the project.

Step 2: We choose the correct scaffolding system.

A safety and efficient choice of the scaffold is necessary. We then select the optimum scaffold solution after our evaluation. It can be any ordinary scaffold, a sidewalk shed or a unique solution to awkward areas. We ensure that all scaffolds that we select are able to support the loads and provide safe access to workers.

Step 3: We fit Scaffolding with Precision and Care.

We have trained crews who install the scaffolding in a manner that is accepted by the industry and at the instructions of the manufacturer. We ensure the setting of base plates which are kept level, frame alignment, and platforms are in place. To reduce fall risks, we install guardrails, toe boards and safe entry points and enhance safety. We are very meticulous and attentive to detail.

Step 4: We Check Load Capacity and The Stability.

Once the scaffolds are installed, we ensure that the scaffold is stable and capable of supporting the required loads. Bracing, tie-ins and connections are investigated to ensure that the scaffold remains safe in the presence of working conditions. To avoid failure, we establish specific loads and ensure that they are not surpassed. 

Step 5: Before Use, We Give it a Full Check-up

Our inspection of the safety of the scaffold is careful before it is used by workers. We inspect every joint, fastener, platform, guardrail and entrance. Safety signs and warnings are in place and conspicuous. We are only sure that the scaffold is safe and then we allow the workers to use it.

Step 6: We Conduct Continuous checks in the Project.

Job sites can change. This is the reason why we conduct regular inspections as the project continues running. We perform regular inspections, inspect scaffolds when it has been bad, and monitor damage or illegal modifications. These were inspections that enable us to correct the problems at an early stage so that they do not turn out to be safety issues.

Step 7: We solve Problems As They arise.

When we discover any safety issues when making inspections, we take immediate action. We fix or change broken components, add stability where necessary and can shut down until it is safe to use. This will be proactive to ensure that all persons on and about the site are secure.

Step 8: We Take Scaffolding Down in a Responsible and safe manner.

On the completion of the project we remove the scaffold as we put it up. To ensure the safety of our crew and the people below, we are taking out the pieces in a regulated sequence. We also make the site clean, tidy and safe.
