Scaffolding Design by Glencross Scaffolding

Scaffolding Design: Safe, Practical Solutions Engineered for Every Site

Behind every effective scaffolding installation lies a robust and carefully considered design. At Glencross Scaffolding, we provide professional scaffolding design services to ensure every structure we erect is safe, fit-for-purpose, and fully compliant with all relevant regulations.

Why Design Matters

Scaffolding isn’t one-size-fits-all. Especially on complex or large-scale projects, bespoke design work is crucial to: • Guarantee structural stability • Calculate loading and anchorage • Avoid clashes with existing buildings or services • Ensure compatibility with other site operations With TG20:21 compliance as standard, we determine early on whether a scaffold requires a design or if it can be safely built using established guidance.

Working Alongside Licensed Contractors

We’re proud to support asbestos removal firms by providing scaffolding that is: • Built in accordance with HSE guidelines and CDM 2015 • Fitted with double boarding and debris netting where required • Adaptable to changing project stages—from removal to re-roofing Our teams work to strict method statements and risk assessments and understand the importance of collaboration and timing when working in hazardous environments.

Designed by Experts

For projects outside the scope of TG20 (including cantilevered scaffolds, high-rise façade work, heavy-duty loading platforms, or suspended access), we collaborate with experienced structural engineers to produce: • Full scaffold designs with drawings and calculations • Temporary works certificates • Sequence and erection plans • Wind-loading assessments We integrate these designs seamlessly with site schedules, ensuring that safety never delays progress.

Peace of Mind for Clients and Contractors

Our scaffolding designs are backed by full risk assessments and are regularly reviewed during build stages. We ensure every scaffold is ready for inspection and handover, giving you and your stakeholders complete peace of mind.

Whether you’re working on a restoration project, a high-rise commercial block, or need specialist access across tricky terrain, our design-led approach keeps projects safe, compliant and efficient from the ground up.

Fully Compliant and Risk-Managed

Glencross Scaffolding complies with all current scaffolding regulations, including TG20:21 and the Work at Height Regulations 2005. We also provide full temporary works design and certification where required, ensuring peace of mind for contractors and site managers.

Our scaffolds are regularly inspected and maintained to the highest standards, and we can integrate hoarding or edge protection systems where needed to maintain safe site boundaries.
