The document outlines the process of designing scaffolding to support a given total load while meeting safety factors. It calculates loads from weight, wind, and soil contact before checking the adequacy of scaffolding components.

The document calculates the wind load by determining the basic wind speed, design wind speed, and then uses coefficients to determine the dynamic wind pressure and maximum tension pressure.

The document checks the adequacy of the GI pipe, wall ties, and sole plate by calculating and comparing forces from loading to the strength capacities of each component to ensure they will not fail.

5) Soil Stress
Try 50 x 100 timber as sole plate and assuming soil bearing capacity of 7.5 tones/m² (or=7500 kg/m²)

Maximum Loading per Standerd (leg) of Scaffold = Total load /2 996.225 kg


Area 0.18 m²
Soil Stress
Maximum loading / base plate area 5534.58 kg/m²
