NASC TG20:08 - Guide to good practice for scaffolding with tubes and fittings. This gives guidance on the implementation of BS EN 12811-1. Volumes 1 and 2.
 
There is a new supplement out for TG20:08, it came out in the last three weeks. It's because the wind code has changed.

There's no need to be so aggressive.

If you're really interested, 181 was my Nan's house number. I've been in the scaffolding industry 20 years this October and yes, I'm not bad at scaffolding in practice....

not wanting to sound like a c##t, under wahr would the lift not have to be free from gaps because of the chance of something rolling down the gap i.e end users tools, as in the gap between the boards at the inside standards. I've got wahr quoted in rams package for with sg4:10 for erection purposes but hand the job over in compliance with HSG150:131. ADVISE please cause i've just had my handover books re-printed!! cheers.

Couple of bits of clarity here;

Inspection and handover of scaffold is covered by regulation 12 of the work at height regulations.

BSEN 12811/1 states the gap between work platform and inside boards is 25mm, TG20 states 50mm to incorporate a standard other wise you would have to fill the gap in at all times even though the underneath of the scaffold could be blocked off.

If there is a chance of stuff falling on people below from that gap of 50mm then it should be risk assessed and ply covers in place or some of the scaffgap stuff on the market.

HSG150 is what it stands for Heath and Safety Guidance 150 not law. Your handovers if audited not stating work at height regs 2005 may give you a non conformance.

I would google hsg150 or check on the Hse website to see if it is still current with the 2007 changes to CDM
