Scaffolding, Part 3: Prefabricated and tube-and-coupler scaffolding
The new updated Standard AS/NZS 1576.3 incorporates many changes from the 1991 draft. These changes reflect the current practices used in testing prefabricated and tube-and-coupler scaffolds. This Standard also specifies performance requirements for prefabricated and tube-and-coupler scaffolding.
-
Scaffolding - Suspended scaffolding
-
Scaffolding - General requirements
Sets out design and operational requirements for scaffolding, except trestle scaffolding, portable ladder intended to be used as working platforms and elevating working platforms.
-

-
Scaffolding - Metal tube-and-coupler scaffolding - Deemed to comply with AS/NZS 1576.3
Specifies requirements for unsheeted metal tube-and coupler scaffolding that does not exceed 33 m in height and is deemed to comply with the performance requirements of AS/NZS 1576.3 for light, medium and heavy duty loads. The Standard does not apply to prefabricated (modular) scaffolds and scaffolding installations that require specific engineering design to establish the strength of any part of the scaffold or the adequacy of the supporting structure.
-
Scaffold decking components
Specifies requirements for the design and manufacture of scaffold decking components, and their performance requirements when used to form working platforms for scaffolds. Decking components comprise scaffold planks, deck infills, lap plates and prefabricated platforms.
