What is scaffolding training?
Why Scaffolding Training is a must in construction
The purpose of scaffolding training is to improve the safety standards of scaffolds and their workers. Field training provides greater practical guidance to make skilled, certified, and knowledgeable scaffold team members to ensure the safe execution of scaffolding work.
The aim of this scaffolding training is to provide the participants with both theoretical and practical knowledge to enable them to erect, inspect, use, and dismantle scaffolds using standard scaffolding guidelines.
What is the basic knowledge of scaffolding?
The word itself originates from construction and refers to the temporary platform that is set up for builders to stand on while they put up new walls and floors. In education, scaffolding is a way for teachers to provide support while students master new concepts and skills.
