Yeah but there are two of them
I was the Termo (now Kaefer) scaffolding manager and was responsible for all the tagging on the site other than Hertel. Craig was their main man and Robbie backed up.
My main man was Tam Sherriff and if neither of us were on site, which happened at weekends and on the few night shifts, then Lashak or Adam covered us. Both were top class advanced scaffolders by any standard, Lashak amongst the top people I have even worked with.
Myself and Jozef did all the scaffolding design (still do in fact) and were approved by the client and the PSDS to do so. One problem that we all had, and I mean both Termo and Pyeroy, was the lack of scaffolders that could read a drawing and erect as per the design. A Pyeroy guy named Lee knew what he was doing but left just as the first absorber cantilever was about to start. We had to re-jig it about three times after that before I could sign off because it was set out with two lines of standards instead of the three on the drawing which grossly overloaded the inside standards.
The tube that was put into that cantilever would have supported the Eiffel Tower!
I'll try and find a link to a few photos on my old laptop
