A scaffold board has a standard width of 225mm and has a maximum length of 3.9m.
Vertical ties must be placed at the end of the scaffolding. The ties must be installed when erecting the scaffolding and only removed once the scaffolding is dismantled.
Make sure that all selected scaffolding components are constructed to the requirements of the ANSI and ASTM.
