    Introduction Introduction About this user guide This user guide describes the safe assembly and use of reinforcement installation scaf- folds from the BOSTA and MODEX systems. The reinforcement installation scaffolds are referred to as "scaffolds" in this user guide. The activities described in this user guide include the erection of scaffolds with up to two levels and a level height of two metres. Scaffolds that exceed this are possible after consultation with HÜNNEBECK. This user guide is intended for commercial users with appropriate technical training. The information and procedures described here comply with the laws and the occupa- tional health and safety regulations of Germany and Austria.

  • Page 41: Preparation For Assembly

    Reinforcement installation scaffolds Preparation for assembly Complying with regulations Step 1 Ensure that the rules and regulations applicable at the place of use are observed and followed. This applies in particular to the following regulations: • Occupational safety regulations • Safety rules of the employers' liability insurance association and the applicable regu- lations for work safety • Regulations of the German ordinance on industrial safety and health • German technical rules on operational safety 2121 (TRBS 2121)
  • Page 42: Preparing The Ground

    Preparation for assembly The following points must be checked: • Completeness of the components • Flawless condition of the components • Stability of the scaffold • Occupational health and operational safety aspects of the scaffold Step 1 Verify that the scaffold and all components are in flawless condition. Step 2 Only use undamaged original HÜNNEBECK parts. Step 3 Visually inspect all components for origin and damage before installation. Step 4 Replace damaged parts and parts from other manufacturers with original parts.
  • Page 43: Erecting Bosta Reinforcement Installation Scaffolds

    Reinforcement installation scaffolds Erecting BOSTA reinforcement installation scaffolds The following order is ideal when assembling the reinforcement installation scaffold: • Erect the first scaffold bay • Add further scaffold bays to the side of the first scaffold bay • Erect the upper level scaffold bays one after the other. Tip! It is also possible, but more complicated, to attach scaffold bays laterally to a finished scaffold on both levels. This procedure is therefore not described in this user guide. Creating connections using drop latches Drop latches are attached to the exterior of the vertical frames. Additional drop latches can be attached to the vertical frame with Half Couplers 48/G w.a.f. 22 (116370). Up to two components can be attached to each drop latch. Follow these steps: Step 1 Raise the drop latch (1) in line with the clevis pin.
  • Page 44: Preparing The First Scaffold Bay

    Erecting BOSTA reinforcement installation scaffolds 6.2 Preparing the first scaffold bay 6.2.1 Preparing the base frame Tip! Begin assembly at the highest point of the ground. Otherwise, the reinforcement instal- lation scaffold may need to be levelled several times. Step 1 Place two base jacks at a distance of one vertical frame width from the highest point of the planned scaffold surface.
  • Page 45 Reinforcement installation scaffolds 6.2.2 Stabilising the scaffold bay Follow these steps to stabilise the scaffold bay: The diagonal brace must be mounted on scaffolds with several scaffold bays in such a way that the highest point is on the common vertical frame. To use the temporary rail on exterior vertical frames, the diagonal braces have to be fastened to the inner of the two recesses. Step 1 Insert the connecting hook (1) of the diagonal brace (3) into the inner recess (2) on the vertical frame. Step 2 Connect the diagonal brace on the lower clevis pins (4) to the second vertical frame. To stabilise the vertical frame, a cross pipe must be secured as far down as possible on the vertical frame.
  • Page 46 Erecting BOSTA reinforcement installation scaffolds Step 3 Fix the cross pipe (1) to the vertical frame using two swivel couplers (2). Step 4 Secure the second cross pipe to the other vertical frame in the same way. Unless stated otherwise, all dimensions in mm.
  • Page 47: Attaching The Plank

    Reinforcement installation scaffolds 6.3 Attaching the plank In order to completely stabilise the scaffold bay, the plank has to be put into place. Tip! To access the upper scaffold bays, a passage plank is required in a scaffold bay. Step 1 Hook the plank (1) into the U-profiles (2) of both vertical frames using the claws (3). The scaffold bay is now sufficiently stable. The plank is only securely fastened when twin-railing posts or other vertical frames are attached to the vertical frames (Refer to page 51). Step 2 Turn up the base jacks until the upper edge of the guard rail and the crossbars of the vertical frames are horizontal.
  • Page 48: Attaching The Base Jack Securing Device

    Erecting BOSTA reinforcement installation scaffolds 6.4 Attaching the Base Jack Securing Device Step 1 Attach the Base Jack Securing Device (2) to all base jacks (3) as shown. Step 2 Tighten the screw (1) in the coupler with 50 Nm. Unless stated otherwise, all dimensions in mm.
  • Page 49: Increasing Stability

    Reinforcement installation scaffolds 6.5 Increasing stability If the ratio of the width to the height of the reinforcement installation scaffold exceeds 1:3, the width of the scaffold has to be increased. In the case of BOSTA 70 scaffolds, the Stage Bracket must always be used. Follow these steps: Step 1 Place the stage bracket (2) on the base jack (4). Step 2 Hook the stage bracket to the exterior of the vertical frame and align it at a right angle to the long side. Step 3 Tighten the screw (1) in the coupler with 50 Nm. Step 4 Unscrew the base jack of the stage bracket so that there is no clearance between the base jack and the ground or substructure.
  • Page 50: Attaching The Scaffold Bay At The Side

    Erecting BOSTA reinforcement installation scaffolds 6.6 Attaching the scaffold bay at the side Step 1 Position two base jacks (5) next to the existing scaffold bay, at a distance of approxi- mately the size of a frame, spacing them to suit the scaffold bay depth. Step 2 Place the additional vertical frame (1) on the base jacks (5). Step 3 Connect the additional vertical frame to the existing vertical frame by inserting the guard rail (4) that will later be on the exterior into the lower drop latches (3). Step 4 To level the scaffold bay, turn up the base jacks until the upper edge of the guard rails and the crossbars of the vertical frames are horizontal. Step 5 Insert the diagonal brace (2) into the recess on the common vertical frame. Step 6 Connect the diagonal brace to the additional vertical frame using the drop latches.
  • Page 51: Attaching The Upper Scaffold Bay

    Reinforcement installation scaffolds Attaching the upper scaffold bay 6.7.1 Attaching the temporary rail The temporary rail is used to provide protection against falling during the attachment of the upper scaffold bay. As soon as the guard rails are securely fastened, the temporary rail can be removed. Risk of serious and fatal injury due to falling from the scaffold! WARNING Working on an unsecured scaffold can lead to falls. • Do not access the upper scaffold level until the guard rail has been securely fas- tened. Attaching the Double Rail A double rail has to be attached to all vertical frames on the end faces of each level for assembly.
  • Page 52 Erecting BOSTA reinforcement installation scaffolds Step 5 Hook the upper fastening brackets (1) on the AGR railing into the outer recesses on the end face of the vertical frame (3). Step 6 Push the AGR railing upwards until the lower fastening brackets (2) fit over the double rail. Unless stated otherwise, all dimensions in mm.

    Erecting BOSTA reinforcement installation scaffolds 6.8 Installing Compression Bearings The Compression Bearing braces the scaffold against the formwork. This ensures the specified distance of the scaffold from the reinforcement. The Compression Bearing consists of scaffold tubes, which are fixed to all vertical posts of the uppermost level using rigid couplers. The Compression Bearing is always attached to the interior as far up as possible. Step 1 Attach a scaffold tube (2) of an appropriate length with a Rigid Coupler 48/48 w.a.f. 22 (1) as high up as possible on the vertical posts. Step 2 Repeat step 1 for all posts on the reinforcement side of the top level. Unless stated otherwise, all dimensions in mm.

    Reinforcement installation scaffolds Erecting the MODEX reinforcement installation scaffold The following order is ideal when assembling the reinforcement installation scaffold: • Erect the first scaffold bay • Add further scaffold bays to the side of the first scaffold bay • Erect the upper level scaffold bays one after the other. Tip! It is also possible, but more complicated, to attach scaffold bays laterally to a finished scaffold on both levels. This procedure is therefore not described in this user guide. Creating connections with the MODEX node The horizontal tube ledgers and the diagonals are connected with the joint connectors to the attachment rosettes on the vertical posts with the MODEX system nodes. Several components can be secured to each rosette.

    Reinforcement installation scaffolds Tip! To brace the prepared base frame, place a horizontal diagonal of the appropriate length horizontally between two starting pieces. The horizontally mounted diagonal is not absolutely necessary. It facilitates right-an- gled alignment of the scaffold, increases stability and can be removed after completion of the scaffold. Assembling the scaffold bay Step 1 Insert four Vertical Posts 300 (3) into the starting pieces (4). Step 2 Align the vertical posts such that the bore holes (1) for securing the butt joints are ori- ented in the longitudinal direction.

    Reinforcement installation scaffolds Attaching the scaffold bay at the side The scaffold can be extended by attaching further elements to the end faces. Step 1 Prepare two additional starting pieces as described beginning on page 66. Step 2 Connect the starting pieces to the end faces of the existing scaffold using tube ledgers of the desired length. Step 3 Erect the scaffold bay as described in the previous section. Step 4 Repeat the steps for the other required scaffold bays. Tip! A complete scaffold in the desired width can also be erected. The procedure is identi- cal. Increasing stability If the ratio of the planned width to the height of the reinforcement installation scaffold exceeds 1:3, the width of the scaffold has to be increased. Step 1 Position the base jack (4) on the exterior of the scaffold in front of the vertical post. Step 2 Place the Stage Bracket 70 (2) with the sleeve (3) on the base jack. Step 3 Connect the Stage Bracket to the Vertical Post at right angles to the exterior. Step 4 Tighten the screw (1) in the coupler with 50 Nm.
