INNOVATION 1 ACG INTRODUCE PERI SYSTEM SCAFFOLDING
ACG are relentless in our search for new industry-leading innovations. In 2018 ACG researched the current scaffold system market with a view to making a major investment into a system that can provide innovative access solutions to our global business. The result of this study led to the introduction and over 4 million USD investment into the industry-leading PERI UP System Scaffolding. The system provides
• Modular scaffolding for erecting complex work scaffolds
• Fits in all directions: uniform, metric length and width grid arrangement of all system components of 25 cm and 50 cm; connection possibilities to the standards with 50 cm spacings
• Scaffold bay lengths: 50 cm, 75 cm, 100 cm, 125 cm, 150 cm, 200 cm, 250 cm, 300 cm
• Easy and safe assembly with the Gravity Lock: when placing the wedge head in the rosette, the wedge drops into the opening due to its weight and automatically locks
• Non-lift decking through the integrated lock against lift-off (Locking Deck); slip-resistant decks
• Level working areas without any gaps between the decks
• The rigidity of the ledger connections allows high leg loads which means fewer diagonals are required
• High level of working safety through the end-to-end guardrails and toe boards
• Can be used with a wide range of supplementary system components and accessories for diverse applications
INNOVATION 2 CISRS TRAINING COMING SOON
As part of ACGs training and development process ACG are currently preparing to introduce to all of its regions the internationally accredited CISRS Overseas Scaffolding Training Scheme (OSTS)
CISRS (Construction Industry Scaffolders Record Scheme) has been the recognised qualification for the scaffolding sector within the UK for over 40 years.
Courses will range from Level 1 for the new entrant to Level 4 for Advanced scaffolders.
CISRS OSTS is based upon the same tried and tested principles as the UK scheme of formal training and assessment, including practical, theoretical and Health and safety sessions coupled with onsite time served experience.
Supervisory or Management position, CISRS OSTS can provide Scaffolding Supervisor and both Basic and Advanced Scaffold Inspection qualifications.
