Description

Welcome to CPCCLSF2001 Licence to Erect, Alter and Dismantle scaffolding basic level training course. This is an SB Licence.

This course specifies the skills and knowledge required to safely perform basic scaffolding work.

Scaffolding work involves erecting, altering or dismantling a temporary structure to support a platform from which a person or object could fall more than four metres.

This unit applies to scaffolding work involving:

1. Modular or pre-fabricated scaffolds.

2. Cantilevered materials hoists with a maximum working load of 500 kg.

3. Ropes.

4. gin wheels

5. safety nets and static lines

6. bracket scaffolds (tank and formwork).

Scaffolding work is undertaken in construction and other industries where temporary

structures are erected, altered and dismantled.

Completion of the general construction induction training program, specified in the Safe Work Australia model Code of Practice: Construction Work, is required by anyone carrying out construction work. Achievement of CPCCWHS1001 Prepare to work safely in the construction industry meets this requirement.

Competence in this unit does not in itself result in a licence. A licence is obtained after competence is assessed under applicable Commonwealth, state or territory work health and safety (WHS) regulations.

Background - What Role Does Formwork Scaffolding Play In Construction Projects?

Most construction projects rely heavily on formwork scaffolding to create the foundational structures that support buildings and infrastructure. 

Formwork scaffolding plays a crucial role in ensuring that concrete is accurately poured and shaped to meet design specifications.

Types of Formwork Scaffolding

There are various types of formwork scaffolding available, each serving a specific purpose in construction. 

Understanding the different types can help in choosing the most suitable formwork for a project.

Role of Formwork Scaffolding in Construction Projects

Supporting Concrete and Materials:

1. Provides support for concrete slabs, beams, and walls during pouring and curing.

2. Ensures the structural integrity of the final building by bearing the weight of construction materials.

Safety and Accessibility for Workers:

1. Offers a stable platform for workers to perform tasks at different heights.

2. Reduces the risk of accidents and injuries on construction sites.

3. Facilitates easy access to hard-to-reach areas, improving efficiency.

4. Requires correct installation and regular inspection to maintain safety standards.

5. Workers need training in proper scaffolding procedures and equipment usage to minimise risks.

Scaffolding licences required in Queensland

This section includes high-risk licences for:

Basic scaffolding – SB

You need a Basic Scaffolding- SB high-risk work license to perform basic scaffolding tasks.

Basic scaffolding includes:

1. Prefabricated modular scaffolding.

2. Cantilevered Hoist with maximum working load 500 kg (only materials).

3. Ropes.

4. Gin wheels.

5. Safety nets and static Lines.

6. The bracket scaffold (tank & formwork).

Intermediate scaffolding - SI

You need a high-risk work license for Intermediate Scaffolding to perform these duties.

You must have a basic licence or pass the assessment to obtain one before you can apply for a intermediate licence.

Intermediate scaffolding includes:

1. Basic scaffolding is included in the Basic Scaffolding class.

2. Tube and coupler scaffolds, including tube and pair covered ways and gantries.

3. Cantilever cranes loading platforms.

4. Cantilever and spurred scaffolds.

5. Barrow ramps, sloping platforms.

Advanced scaffolding SA

The following are examples of advanced scaffolding:

The Intermediate class includes scaffolding work.

1. Cantilever hoists.

2. Hanging scaffolds include scaffolds that are hung from wire ropes, tubes or chains.

The suspended scaffolding is a great alternative to traditional scaffolding.

What will you learn

1. Obtain and read information, including safe work method statements (SWMSs), required to ensure that activities are performed in compliance with workplace-specific and safe work requirements.

2. Obtain and read information required to ensure that equipment inspection, use, maintenance and storage complies with manufacturer requirements.

3. Identify workplace and task-specific hazards and determine required risk controls and safety measures and equipment, including signs and barricades, personal protective equipment (PPE), and fall prevention and fall arrest equipment.

4. Select risk controls and equipment and fall protection, and check that it is working and fit for purpose.

5. Inspect scaffold and associated equipment for defects, and isolate, tag out, report and record defective items.

6. Select communication equipment and check that it is working and fit for use.

7. Ensure risk controls and safety measures and equipment have been put in place, including the fitting, adjusting and anchoring of fall protection equipment.

8. Consult with relevant persons to ensure that ground and foundation have been assessed as suitable for task.

9. Inspect completed scaffolding task for compliance with task requirements, complete handover certificate and forward to relevant persons, and complete and attach scaffold tag.
