Masonry Scaffold - Full Power for Every Facade

Masonry scaffolds are mainly used for work on masonry, facades and plastered surfaces. They provide a stable working platform at low to medium heights and are designed specifically for the demands of shell construction. For work on the entire building envelope, a facade scaffold is the better fit.

This varies by system and manufacturer. As a rule, masonry scaffolds are used for low to medium working heights. In practice, a classic frame scaffold is often used as the basis.

Not necessarily. Many masonry scaffolds can be used free-standing at low heights.
However, as soon as wind loads, greater heights or additional decking come into play, anchoring with suitable scaffold anchors or bracing becomes necessary.

No. Masonry scaffolds have a different construction and are not approved for continuous facade work or great heights. For such tasks, a facade scaffold is the right choice. Masonry scaffolds, by contrast, are optimised for targeted uses and masonry work.

The load capacity depends on the type of work. Load class 3 is typical, as masonry work involves material loads. We explain in detail what requirements the individual scaffold load classes impose.

Yes - provided height adjusters, base jacks or suitable supports are used. Height-adjustable scaffold feet reliably compensate for unevenness. Important: the ground must be load-bearing.

Usually steel decks or robust wooden decks such as scaffold planks, as masonry work generates heavy point loads. How to inspect scaffold decks correctly is explained in our guide.
