Safety Requirements for Scaffolding & Comparison Document
Also Known As: ANSI/ASSP A10.8-2011
The ASSP A10.8-2011 standard sets forth the safety guidelines for scaffolds utilized in various construction activities such as building construction, renovation, demolition, and maintenance. The standard outlines the requirements for designing, constructing, operating, maintaining, and using scaffolds in a safe manner. It emphasizes the need for proper training and awareness of potential hazards associated with scaffolding operations.
However, it is important to note that this standard does not cover permanently installed suspended scaffold systems or aerial platforms. These specific types of scaffolding systems are governed by separate standards.
Additionally, the mention of the "Comparison Document" suggests the availability of a document that highlights the changes and differences between the A10.8-2001 and A10.8-2011 editions of the standard. This comparison document provides a useful resource for those who need to understand the updates and modifications made in the newer edition.
