its a basic of scaffolding ,, it needs to be done sometimes ,,, how can u do it ??????????:sad:

You would use what we call an offshore bracket, not sure of the proper name, its a bit of kit used to join standards on a hanger.

fekin h8 the stuff but if you got all the companants to hand or most you can doa good job but i will say this you are fuked with lift highes 500mm and not come acrros anthing to change the lift hights half way up

Yes you can, you get a 3/4or half size rosette, on one side there is a gate with a bolt, you can bolt them any were on your standards, you can do anything with layer as you can with tube and fit, and at twice the speed.

You are talking about a vertical coupling that bolts one standard to the other, a lot quicker using them than small tubes and swivels

Of course you need to splice layer, it has only a tact weld holding the spigot in place, it also has holes in the spigot for joining the standards together which makes it simple for putting your next hanging standard in and holding it in place until you splice it or pull it back to a node point, according to layer there is no need to splice with the bracing, I would put the splice in incase the bracing was taken out.

Or another method is to drill holes through your hanging standards the opposite side of the weld on the spigot were you feed a hardened bolt through, this will do away with the splice, lots of big company’s do this that build lots of hangers with layer

This is also another method and stronger as your using a 90 instead of a swivel, but you be f-ucked if you had to take your hand rail out for some reason, and 90% of the time you won’t have an inside hand rail

No need to splice Van Thiel,it is designed for that. Twist and lock job done.
Maybe you should think about splicing your Barnett.
:D

Spigot is only tack welded .so yes there is need to splice, the more weight you put on the scaffold the more stress you are putting on the weld.(suspended)

learn something new every day was under the impression it didnt need splising when you used the joles in the topper with the pins threw the bottom are bolted on but the top just allow for the gold ring pins, ill have a wee look at brocher cheers marra
 
suspended scaffolds you should use the Layher open ended standards which use a high tensile spigot which bolt in or for speed use pins and clips in the spigot.

Regarding splice use a twin wedge coupler to attach another standard to the side and then back in again when past obstruction.

Is that the same as the offshore bracket ( fastens to the adjoining top and bottom rossette )
 
no twin wedge coupler allows you to attach another standard vertically off the rosette.

The part you refer to is used to splice standard if holes in spigots are not lined up so you can not get nut and bolt or pin in.These are used off shore as stronger than nut and bolt in up lift/tension.
Also handy part if you want to crane scaffold around e.g support tower or staircase

spot on mate we call them rabbits ears handy fitting :bigsmile:
 
how do you manage to splice them in say a bird cage were middle standard is flush with top boarded lift ? if that makes sence i know ma nit picking just wondering as i can under stand on the out side standard or if you could splice them in the middl of th elift with a 2 cup
 
bracket fits on outside of standards, so won't foul boards mate... not sure what rabbits ears are though..

yeah they fit on out side of standard but how do you get the other standard used a a butt to go threw you middle standard on a bird cage the rabit ears are like tranny/ ledger but have only got the pin head no tube between the head of the ledgers/ trannys f that makes sence?

Not sure what you mean mate ?? are you on about topping standards out ?? theres that many components and they seem to have different slang names...
 
some 1 mention them on here use them only to set return off again sdont ask why coz you would just come off but they put a set right next to them and conected the 2 standards if you imagine the end of a layher ledger cut two of them off a ledger then weld them together and you have rabbit ears or wt ever there called ill try anf find a pic

you mean chicken heads ?? send a pic mate...
 
Yes Hswt you are correct; the fitting you are talking about is called a parallel coupler, they can be used for making up beams. They are actually stronger than lattice beams as you can put as many in as you like, I usually spaced them every 300, they can also be used as a splice with a small tube, Swl used in pairs is 600kg, they are also used for doubling up your standards if building a high scaffold and reduced to a single after 50m depending on your height, most commonly they are used on a street scaffold were your kicker is taken out, these would be used to stop the scaffold from spreading .

I know this does not correspond to the tread but this is the van Thiel tube, if you look at the tube you will see all the punch marks on the tubes, and if you look at a layher standard it will be the same, according to van Thiel and layher there is no need to spice any of these when building a suspended scaffold, but would you trust them rivets?

We spoke earlier in the thread about Layher saying you are governed by your 500mm lifts and that you can’t put your lift anywhere like tube and clip, you can with these little gadgets, they can be got in the bolt type as well.
