Mattisons with their hilarious lorries are looking for an advanced scaffolder who they are willing to put through their advanced inspection ticket (allegedly)
It is from this mornings metro

Call 02083650055
 
Q. Why does an CISRS Advanced trained scaffolder need an inspection ticket.
His CISRS ticket allows him to sign off on completion and do the 7 day inspection.
 
A. Because he's only covered to inspect what was on the CISRS Pt1, 2 and adv course. Anything that wasn't covered according to CISRS needs further training.

Don't shoot the messenger.
 
Exactly, another idiot in the forum that ain't got a clue what he is talking about.
So if there are scaffolds that aren't on any CISRS courses how do they train you to erect them, fecking idiot.

Can't you think of anything outside of the CISRS training then? You must have had a sheltered life idiot.
 
Is a flying shore still in the course? What about mobile decks running off crane tracks? Multi lift hangers?
As I said don't shoot the messenger.

And regardless of the Inspector's ticket true worth, some MC's insist on it due to the NASC propaganda machine doing it's job.
 
Flying shore, raking shore both still on the course. A hanger is on the course, don't matter what it comes off HSWT, no point trying to make it sound all fancy, hanger is a hanger, birdcage is a birdcage.
 
When do you ever get a hanger that easy?

I could be wrong but I was told the flying shore is no longer on the adv course.

Not true MM. The most vital part of any hanger is the suspension points. Have you ever tried fixing gravlok a or a box suspension point to circular inclined steel?

And the hanger on the course is done by dropping trapezes from steel. Don't get the chance to do that often do you?
 
I should have posted this on this thread.

What I can't understand is with all the different training required these days there seems to be more jobs falling over. Erected (And inspected) supposedly by better qualified personnel than we had 25-30 years ago.
I was working on the south coast in 1987 when we had the worst storms and winds in living memory, I don't know of any jobs falling over in that storm.
We had a scaffold fully sheeted on St Dunstans Brighton, for those of you who aren't familiar with this building it sits basically on a cliff with a road between the sea and itself and looks over the English Channel.
The scaffold stayed put but the building was pulled apart at the expansion joints because of the Hilti ties.
A few boards got rattled about on our other jobs but nothing whatsoever fell over.

Progress eh?


And most had ECITB cards or no card and we were working for GKN, look what happened in Cardiff years later when they were all carded men.

Flying shore certainly ain't on the course down at Erith and it wasn't covered on the advanced inspection course I did either so how does that make me qualified to inspect that?
 
Feck knows.

I phoned the CISRS 5 mins ago and asked why I would need to do an advanced inspection course for if I already have an advanced card.
Their reply was "You need it to inspect advanced scaffolds"
To which I replied "Your website says I don't"
She put me on hold for 5 mins and then told me "If your boss or client requires the advanced inspection you need to take the course"
When I asked again why would I need this course she went quiet and then said "If our website says you don't need it then you don't need it"

It's whether or not your customers have been brainwashed by the NASC, that is the deciding factor.
 
It Was on ours

The only people that need to do an inspection course are people who don't not hold a CISRS Card, anyone that does, can sign off on completion and do the 7 days inspection, but only on scaffolds that their CISRS card allows them to erect, so a gold card holder, can sign off any scaffold out there, that's what CISRS & NASC told me too.
 
Does that make it right though mate, some scaffs are basically structual engineers that can do calcs etc but ive met yard rats from the docks that got the gold card from their mates on the committee , the card defo doesnt make the man :unsure:
