SAN FRANCISCO and OAKLAND, Calif. — Don Fry Scaffold Service Inc. recently brought Layher products together in a new design to recoat sections of pipelines originally covered with lead-based paint that supply water to San Francisco and Oakland.
What makes the approach unique is a specialized design that encloses the pipe, preventing the exposure of lead-based materials, combined with the use of a manual cable system known as a Tirfor®, to pull the scaffold housing along I-beam tracks set up on either side of the line. Two rows of castors on either side work in conjunction with the Tirfor system to provide mobility. The system is operated by a simple lever and is capable of managing heavy loads like the 10,000-plus-pound caged scaffold design composed of Layher Cassette Roof, walls of Protect System Scaffolding and Allround® Scaffolding for the base structure.
