Overview
Modular Scaffolding for Block Outfitting (2005-333-R20)
Project Team:
- General Dynamics NASSCO
2014
NSRP ASE Investment: $118K
Objective:
The overall goal of this project is to improve scaffolding methods to reduce installation costs (labor and material) and provide trade access to the entire (external & internal) block within one shift while maintaining a safe work environment. This project will develop guidelines and criteria for selection of the best scaffolding design with considerations to block size and shape, build/outfit sequence, storage footprint, safety (fall and ergonomic) risks, and current state-of-the-art technologies.
Key Deliverables:
