The Scope
The project required the erection of an intricate scaffolding structure, which reached a height of 102 meters. This scaffolding was not a standard vertical installation but had to be designed to curve along with the building’s facade. Such a design necessitated precise engineering and custom-built components to ensure the scaffolding could safely support workers and equipment at various points of the building’s exterior.
Moreover, the scaffolding had to incorporate overhanging sections and stepped-out platforms. These features were essential to provide safe access to the building’s exterior surfaces, which varied in depth due to the curve. This complex setup required meticulous planning and execution to ensure the stability and safety of the scaffolding structure. The overhanging elements allowed workers to navigate around the building’s projections, while the stepped-out sections provided platforms at different heights, facilitating access to all areas of the facade.
The planning and implementation of such a specialized scaffolding system underscored the project’s complexity and the importance of precision in both design and execution. This careful approach ensured minimal disruption to residents while maintaining the building’s aesthetic and structural integrity.
