Which would you say was better to have?
Reason i ask is because all of my scaffolding knowledge and experience has been on mechanical sites
I have always felt that street work was i was missing and to be an actual scaffolder i had to do
Now after working on the streets it seems the way i have been taught and way of thinking are more of a hindrance
One example i can give is me doing a cantilever job and having the labourer question everything i done and say i was making more work for myself-just because i put in bracing and a lacing tube through the bottom to take the rakers
Also,i am not claiming to be a brilliant scaffolder or any better than anyone-im still learning and prob never will learn all that i can
Just when it comes to working with guys on the street its like im from another planet even just for that wee bit extra even if it is just over compensating
Thoughts please
