What this sheet is for
Keep a dated inspection history for one scaffold, with findings and the action taken recorded beside each inspection.
Who it is for
Builders, roofers, scaffolders, site managers and anyone responsible for a scaffold on their premises.
How to use it
- Write the required inspection interval in the header, from your own rules.
- Record the erector's stated load class — do not assume one.
- Inspect after alteration or bad weather as well as on the interval.
- Say what was found, not just 'safe'.
- Keep the sheet where the scaffold is, and file it when the job ends.
What is on the sheet
The layout is fixed at a size that fits both A4 and US Letter, so the A4 and Letter files are visually identical and print at full size on either. Rows are set at a height that an adult can actually write a date and a few words into with a pen — most printable tables are built in a word processor and never tested with one.
Questions
How often must a scaffold be inspected?
That is set by local rules and by the circumstances — after erection, after alteration, after events likely to have affected it, and at intervals. The specifics differ by country, so the sheet has a blank line for yours rather than a printed figure.
