Object Type Name: OT-Construction Equipment-Scaffolding

Scaffolding Parameters:
Spacing between posts: Input values that controls the spacing between posts, the post spacing are consistent throughout the entire wall span, except for the last one that can be potentially smaller.
Platform width: Input values that controls the width of the scaffolding walking platform.
Structure start offset: Offset only the steel structure of the scaffolding, posts and railings, at the start of the wall object, not including the walking platform.
Structure end offset: Offset only the steel structure of the scaffolding, posts and railings, at the end of the wall object, not including the walking platform.
Flip wall side: Check to flip scaffolding to the opposite side of the wall object.
Flip structure direction: Check to flip the pattern of the vertical posts.
Creating scaffolding:
- Create a wall object with the wall command
- Wall sketcher can be used to create with polyline profiles
- After creation, update the wall object with the scaffolding object type
- The scaffolding object will be generated using the same height of the wall and can be updated the same way as a wall object.
- Parameters are available within the wall dialog box under Sizing section to refine the model details.
- For outside corner conditions, extend one of the scaffoldings by dragging the wall start/end manipulator; align the start of the scaffolding to the exterior of other scaffolding; and then use the Structure start/end offset parameters of the second scaffolding to extend the post and railing structure to close the corner perimeter.
- For inside corner conditions, pull back one of the scaffoldings by dragging the wall start/end manipulator; align the start of the scaffolding to the exterior of other scaffolding; and then use the Structure start/end offset parameters of the second scaffolding to retract the post and railing structure to clear the corner pathway.
- To create the next level of the scaffolding, sketch wall objects on the next level and apply scaffolding object type.
