Guidance Notes:
- The anchors must only be attached to rigid parts of the support structure. The safe anchor load is dependent on
the type of fixing, the facade/structure substrate material, depth of embedment of the fixing, etc.
- Anchors have to be built in at level of erection. When dismantling a scaffold, anchors may only be removed from
the highest level of dismantling (DIN 4420 Part 1 Section 8.2.2) on a progressive basis.
- When using sheeted scaffold, anchors have to be attached to frames with two couplers.

Introduction
General
The following data sheets are for use with the SPRINT 75 framed facade access scaffold. It is intended that
these sheets (pages 2000 to 2021) will complement the existing datasheets. The rules for use generally
remain the same though some additional rules apply and the notes should be checked carefully when using
the load data on these sheets.
The Safe Working Loads are derived from a 3-D computer model using a finite element stuctural package.
The structures are analysed using a second order (p-delta) elastic analysis and the members checked to the
code requirements of EC3. All the requirements of prEN 12811 “Scaffolds - Performance requirements and
general design” have been adhered to. Allowances for sway inclinations between frames, sway inclinations
between jacks and frames, and bow (out of straightness) imperfections of frames has been accounted for in
the model in accordance with EC3 and prEN 12811.
Factors
Load factor : γf = 1.5 for all loading (dead load, live load, wind load, etc.)
Materials
Frame verticals : S235 fy = 320N/mm2
Jacks : (Boulton Universal Jack) S275 fy = 374N/mm2
Loads
It should be stressed that the maximum windload applied is 770N/m2. Where the
allowable topload permits higher structures to be built it must be verified by the
designer that the maximum windload to the proposed structure is less than 770N/m2.

Introduction
In addition the value of Cs(perp) =1.00 has been taken for the end bays to account for higher
local windloads.
Imposed load : Load class 3 (2kN/ m2) is applied to one working level only at the most onerous level. (This
includes 100% loading at the worst level and 50% loading at the adjacent level. The load is
applied to both the main deck and the hop-up brackets (if present)).
Combinations : Both the “In Service” and “Out of Service” conditions have been analysed to determine the
worst condition. The combinations are taken from prEN12811 and are as follows;
In Service : Self weight
100% Class 3 load at most unfavourable deck level
50% Class 3 load at adjacent deck level
Working wind load
Out of Service : Self weight
35% Class 3 load at most unfavourable deck level
Maximum wind load
Parameters used

How to use
General
The data sheets give allowable safe working loads that may be applied to a SPRINT structure for various
situations depending on the tie pattern, wind load conditions and the presence of hop-up brackets.
The load data is expressed as an allowable “Topload” and an allowable “Leg load”.
The “topload” is the SWL applied to a 24m structure ,already containing one working lift of 2kN/m2.
The “leg load” is the load in the base leg of the structure resulting from the “topload”, the self weight of the
24m structure and the imposed load from one working lift of 2kN/m2 to the 24m structure.
The figures make due allowance for the different load distribution from inside leg to outside leg and shows the
ratio of load distribution for each type of structure.
Internal legs are defined as the legs nearest to the facade and the externals are the legs away from the
facade.
The calculations have been made to determine the maximum “Topload” that can be applied to a 24m high
structure. The “Topload” has been applied in a ratio applicable for the self weight of each type of structure.
The designer should check the ratio of internal to external load for the structure in question and use the
allowable loads given for that situation.

Using the above weights the self weight of each particular 24m structure is calculated as follows , for a 3m
bay;

How to use
TABLE D : 3m bay / 340 hop-ups every lift / main decks alu/ply / hop-up decks steel
Example Calculation 1.
Height = 44m
Maximum windload at 44m = 770N/m2
Facing condition = Unsheeted
Facade porosity = Closed
No walkthrough frame is required
One working level only
340 hop - ups to the inside leg only at every level.
Try ;
3m bay structure
alu/ply decks to main frame
steel decks to hop - ups
Note: In this case only one working level is specified (as used in the load tables) therefore only the allowable
topload needs to be investigated.
Topload above 24m (from Table D above) = 20/24 x 5.83 = 4.9kN to internal leg
= 22/24 x 5.88 = 4.9kN to external leg

How to use
The load data available gives the following options for this structure;
The 12m alternative staggered anchor pattern gives an allowable topload closest to , yet still greater than the
calculated topload for each leg and is therefore the most efficient anchor pattern.
Example Calculation 2.
Height = 30m
Maximum windload at 30m = 770N/m2
Facing condition = Unsheeted
Facade porosity = 60% open
Walkthrough frame is required
Two working levels @ 2kN/m2
Without hop-up brackets
Try ;
3m bay structure
steel decks to main frame
Note: In this case two working levels are specified (different to the load tables which specify one working
level) therefore the additional imposed load should be added to the topload and the topload ratio calculated.
Topload above 24m (from Table A above) = 6/24 x 3.88 = 1.0kN to internal leg
= 6/24 x 7.09 = 1.8kN to external leg
Topload from additional imposed load = 2 x 0.75 x 3 x 50% = 4.5kN to internal leg
= 4.5kN to external leg

For this structure the topload ratio (int : ext) is 45% to 55%. Interpolating between the ratios given in the load
data gives the following options for this structure;
The 6m alternative staggered anchor pattern gives an allowable topload closest to , yet still greater than the
calculated topload for each leg and is therefore the most efficient anchor pattern.

V-Ties : Description
In the absence of ties being fully connected to both standards V-ties are required to give lateral (sideways)
support to the SPRINT structure.This allows all other ties on the structure to be connected to the inside
standard only.
A minimum of two v-ties per ten bays are required for every lift containing ties. For netted structures an
additional rule is required where the top row of ties requires three v-ties per ten bays.
So for example, a 12 bay structure will require (12/10 x 2 = 2.4) 3 v-ties for every lift containing ties.
If netted it will require (12/10 x 3 =3.6) 4 v-ties in the top row of ties.
The terms used to describe the tie forces given in the data sheets are further clarified as follows:

The v - ties are present to give sideways restraint to the structure. It is possible that this restraint may be
provided by another means , for example a scaffold corner return. In this case an engineering judgement should
be made to check that the scaffold corner return will provide an equivalent restraint to the v - tie. The v - ties
may then be replaced by the scaffold corner return, as shown below;

(Safe Working Loads in kN)
(NA = Not Applicable, i.e. the structure fails at 24m height)
(Anchor forces are applicable for both topload ratios shown)
(340 hop-ups internal allows 340mm hop-up brackets to be fixed to every level)
(750 cantilever bracket external allows only one level to be fitted with 750mm cantilever brackets)
