OSHA Safety Checklists for Various Kinds of Supported Scaffolds
| Supported
scaffolds consist of one or more platforms supported by
outrigger beams, brackets, poles, legs, uprights, posts, frames,
or similar rigid support. Because frame scaffolds are the most
common type of supported scaffold, this eTool uses the Frame
module to describe requirements that are common to all supported
scaffolds. Requirements specific to the other types are
described only in their respective modules. |

Frame Scaffold or Fabricated Frame Scaffold: Platform(s) supported on
fabricated end frames with integral posts, horizontal bearers,
and intermediate members.
Manually Propelled/Mobile Scaffold: Unpowered, portable, caster- or
wheel-mounted supported scaffold.
Pump Jack Scaffold: Platform supported by vertical poles and movable
support brackets.
Ladder Jack Scaffold: Platform resting on brackets attached to
ladders.
Tube and Coupler Scaffold: Platform(s) supported by tubing, erected
with coupling devices connecting uprights, braces, bearers, and
runners.
Pole Scaffold: Posts with fixed connection points that accept
runners, bearers, and diagonals that can be interconnected at
predetermined levels.
Specialty Scaffold: Scaffold types designed for a narrow and very
specific range of applications. Includes plasterers',
decorators', and other large-area scaffolds; bricklayers' square
scaffolds; horse scaffolds; outrigger scaffolds; step, platform,
and trestle ladder scaffolds; form and carpenter's bracket
scaffolds; window jack scaffolds; crawling boards and chicken
ladders; and roof bracket scaffolds.
