Paragon Scaffolding was approached to provide a sheeted temporary wall to complete the encapsulation of a large shed to allow for blasting and painting operations.

Using their Layher Allround Lightweight (LW) scaffolding, Paragon was awarded the contract with a design to withstand wind speeds of 135kph. The weight of material required for the Paragon design also achieved a reduction of 20t when compared to alternative submissions.

The base of the structure measured 15.4m, the height 30m, the width 30m, and the assembly procedure was carried out exceptionally quickly: 5 men on day shift and 5 men on night shift for 5 days.

Managing Director of Paragon Scaffolding, Kent Manos, remarked: “Our client was impressed with our design and our speed of execution. They were delighted to have their blast and paint operations back on track so swiftly.”
