A scaffold is a temporary structure used to support workers and materials during the construction, maintenance, or repair of buildings, bridges, or other structures. In the equipment world, scaffolds are commonly used in construction and industrial settings to provide a safe and stable platform for workers to perform tasks at elevated heights. They can be made of various materials such as steel, aluminum, or wood and come in a range of sizes and designs to suit different applications. Scaffolds can be fixed, mobile, or suspended and are designed to be easily assembled and disassembled, making them a versatile and cost-effective solution for a wide range of construction and maintenance needs. The use of scaffolds is regulated by safety standards and codes to ensure the safety of workers, and only trained and certified individuals are allowed to erect, alter, or dismantle scaffolds.
