Rigging

While a standard scaffolder will need additional training and instruction to be effective in rigging, their scaffolding experience will help them in this profession.

Scaffolders are required to install scaffolds whenever construction workers need to repair or replace the facades of tall buildings. They provide a working platform for laborers and construction team members.

Scaffolders in this category also construct tiered seating and stand for public events such as concerts and sporting events.

Whatever the project, the scaffolder is in charge of inspecting the area and determining what type of scaffolding is needed. After that, the scaffolder unloads it and joins the braces and tubing to form the frameworks that will eventually become the scaffold. He will assemble all of the scaffold’s components, including ladders and rails.

The work doesn’t just end there. Scaffolders are usually tasked to check and maintain scaffolding equipment throughout its use. They inspect the scaffolding structure to ensure it is safe to use and eventually take it down after the work is done.
