Slope Control · Site development & building
construction =>cut and/or fill
· Slope angle
![Page 44: Construction Process & Excavation - Trent · PDF fileConstruction Process & Excavation. ... Scaffold • Definition –A temporary structure erected around the perimeter of building](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030422/5aa97aa07f8b9a9a188cf759/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Slop loss =>erosion or slippage =>due to water soaking of surface soils and presence of loose soil mass.
– Erosion =>slope itself, or water affected by planting, irrigation, contouring, pavement, & site & construction. surface planting to protect surface & retard erosion
Slope Control
![Page 45: Construction Process & Excavation - Trent · PDF fileConstruction Process & Excavation. ... Scaffold • Definition –A temporary structure erected around the perimeter of building](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030422/5aa97aa07f8b9a9a188cf759/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Causes of slippage:
• vertical movement of soil mass due to gravity semi-rotational effect along a slip plane
• sliding of one soil mass over another.
Slope Control
![Page 46: Construction Process & Excavation - Trent · PDF fileConstruction Process & Excavation. ... Scaffold • Definition –A temporary structure erected around the perimeter of building](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030422/5aa97aa07f8b9a9a188cf759/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

Scaffold
• Definition
– A temporary structure erected around the perimeter of building to provide a working platform for construction works which cannot be reached from ground level
– Enables materials to be brought up to work area

As a working platform
- so that the worker can stand on the platform
do the work easily & safely
As a platform for placing material & logistic
needed by the workers to carry out their job
As a platform and walking passage
- scaffolding support the platform that been
used by the worker as their walking path to
transport the material & logistic

Among the factors need to be considered
during the design process of scaffold are as
follows:
a) Easier to be erected
b) Strong
c) Light / Not heavy
d) Safe
e) Suitable
f) Passage Link / Passage connecting to other places

OTHER TYPES OF SCAFFOLD
Besides pulog scaffold & independent scaffold
there are other such as:
a) Slung Scaffold
b) Truss-Out Scaffold
c) Suspended Scaffolds
d) Mobile Tower Scaffold
e) Birdcage Scaffolds
f) Gantries
![Page 78: Construction Process & Excavation - Trent · PDF fileConstruction Process & Excavation. ... Scaffold • Definition –A temporary structure erected around the perimeter of building](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030422/5aa97aa07f8b9a9a188cf759/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
MOBILE TOWER SCAFFOLD
The mobile scaffold would have small tyres
under the standards.
Designed to be easily moved
Commonly used for things such as painting and plastering, where workers must frequently change position.
Used mainly by painters & maintenance to
gain access to ceilings.

Suspended Scaffold
It is platform that is suspended by rope or other non-rigid means, from an overhead structure
There are many types of suspended scaffolds such two point (swing stage), multipoint adjustable, catenary and others.
![Page 82: Construction Process & Excavation - Trent · PDF fileConstruction Process & Excavation. ... Scaffold • Definition –A temporary structure erected around the perimeter of building](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030422/5aa97aa07f8b9a9a188cf759/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
Two Point (Swing Stage) is hung by ropes
or cable connected to stirrups at each end
of the platform.
It is used by window washers or skyscrapers

SAFETY PRECAUTION
Standard must be on the same level and vertically straight on the base plate.
The supporting platform wood must be supported properly.
Working platform must been equipped with
safety elements such as hand rail.
Scaffold must be inspected at certain times.
Use safety tools such as safety boots, safety
helmet and etc when using platform.

Supervision of scaffold erection & progress
/safety reports are undertaken by a suitable
experience & qualified person that normally occurs:
a) within the preceding 7 days
b) after adverse weather conditions that may
have affected the scaffold’s strength or
stability
c) whenever alterations / additions are made to the scaffold

The report made after inspection must consist :
Location & description of scaffold
Date of inspection
Result of inspection, statin the condition of
scaffold
Signature & office of the person making
the inspection
Badly assembled & neglected scaffold have been
a significant contributory factor to the high
accident rate associated with the construction
industry.
