Each section (buck) of scaffolding requires two frames, two crossbars, and a complete platform (three pieces of decking).
Frames
The two basic styles of scaffolding are indicated by the shape of the end frame.
"Mason" style frame
The standard size is 5 ft x 5 ft (sometimes 6 ft 4 in tall)
*** We prefer this Mason style frame ***
"Walk Through" style frame.
standard size is 6 ft. 4 in. high by 5 ft. wide.
Cross Brace
Cross braces come in two basic lengths, 7 ft. and 10 ft. The 7 ft. wide by 4 ft. tall is the standard size.
Baseplates
We need five sets (set of 4) of leveling jacks with baseplate..
If you get baseplates without leveling jacks, then we will need lots of pieces of wood of various thicknesses to level the scaffolding.
Decking
Decking (platform) is matched to the length of the crossbars.
The standard is 7 ft. long decking.
The standard width is 19 inches. Some are 19 1/4 inches wide.
Three of these placed side by side make one complete platform.
