Problem is for the most part people get told "wear your harness" but most don't actually understand how to use it properly.... I'm not a scaff but I use harness in work, it seems like the best thing for scaffolding is restraint rather than fall arrest (ie short lanyards so you literally CAN'T fall off) but I see guys on scaffolds wearing long lanyards clipped on at foot level, which as you say is just going to end up with you hitting the next lift on the way down... I'm no expert by any means but I'm not sure a lot of people are actually being taught how to use a harness properly, or about fall factors or different systems of restraint. The old school answer is usually "yeah well just don't fall off" which is true I guess 😂 but a colleague once said "it's ok I won't fall" - and I replied you know who else said that? Every c*nt who ever fell to their death probably. Anyway, whatever you do stay safe lad! All about getting home to your family at the end of each day
@@schnozz87 cheers mate a lot of good information for people in that. Problem with short lanyards if you can’t do any work as you can’t move anywhere. Good feedback tho thanks
Yes again I would never do this unless specified by design or run out of swivels. It does same thing as long as it’s done correctly they can’t fail you for it. Haha it’s just preference
@@jrscaffolding5901 yeah I know depends on your instructor mine was a dickhead lol and picked holes in Everything 🤣 obviously out in the real world what they teach you hardly works anyways 🤣🤣🙄
@@jrscaffolding5901 hmm I like doing double on double for little 5ft towers and that, that are going up to take beams other than that yeah I know what ya mean haha rinses the batteries 🤣 a lot of our work is in London so it’s all by the book, can be a pain in the arse sometimes when I know I can get away with half the amount of gear haha
You are a bang on scaffolder know your job but this isn’t how we do it on part 2 should of been using spanner and done it too a T just incase anyone watches and takes notice

Be pointless in wearing a harness any ways you still hit the bottom lift any ways 😂 Heath and safety is a joke this day and age good work
Depends what lanyard your wearing only gimps wear 2m fall arrest parachute lanyards which is probably what your referring to
@@Paulo33764just gotta do it for collage shouldn’t have to unless your more then a lift of the floor really.

@@christopherpaul1272 haha yes it’s all different with splays
They also prefer braces and sways double on double unless you got a boarded lift

@@Drewski28622 unless there is a design in front of you you will never do double double just saying. Takes a lot more work

They prefer you 3,4 5 it to get it square
Ye just showing what I think is the easiest way to do it. 3 4 5 is good also just takes more time
@@jrscaffolding5901 yeah true true

I was just showing how to do it not exactly how. I did say in the video. Will have to do another were I do it properly. Haha
Just thought people would have more of an idea after this.
