With MORGEN Adjustable Scaffolding, I could brick this 14-story building in 15 days!'
In a remarkably short time Daniel Construction Co. put some 700,000 brick into the masonry walls of the Central Bank and Trust Co. building in Birmingham, Alabama.
Masons started working on Morgen Adjustable Scaffolding ahead of schedule before the concrete frame was completed. This required overhead protection which was easily provided by planking the standard roof support brackets attached to each carriage.
When the 140' high walls were completed, a tower crane was used to quickly swing completely assembled pairs of towers, 146' tall, to another part of the building.
Bricklayers were always kept at their most efficient working height on a rigid and stable working platform. No time was lost for rescaffolding. Production per mason increased dramatically.
Morgen Adjustable Scaffolding speeds up most masonry jobs by 20%-40%. In some cases, the labor saved has paid for the scaffolding on the first job! Let us show you what it can do for you on your next job. Write or phone
