Yesterday, We constructed the 1st platform for our scaffolding tower units, using 18mm OSB boards, made into 3 sections to straddle across the top of the scaffold sides, using 89mm CLS timber as the main structural supports. Also, kick boards were made to hook into around the edges of the platform to prevent both accidental “missteps” while working on the platform but also to prevent losing equipment and trugs that may get bumped into and fall off the top of the tower!
Today was the final job of painting the pieces with the waxy solution that will help keep the platform weather resistant and keep its structural integrity longer while being exposed to the weather and sunshine.
