We are about to start a small project where there is a requirement to build a scaffold on the roof and out over the edge of the roof to form a working platform 18 storeys up to dismantle part of the high level cladding for replacement and or repair. There is a design for the canter lever scaffold using alloy beams and braces.

What should I be looking for in the competency record/certificate of the individual scaffolders, I have looked at CSCS and CISRS but I don’t see anything specific to such high level work.

I posted this in the wrong thread this morning :-(

You best look here

The operative could hold a qualified scaffolder or an advanced scaffolder card for the type of structure you detail. However, more importantly, you need to ensure your have employed a responsible scaffolding contractor who will take just care and attention with the skills and know how to deliver this project without any issues. Following a robust sub contractor vetting system I would request the MS as soon as possible to satisfy myself that all elements are covered focusing in the main in exclusion zones, fall arrest and rescue plans etc etc.
