3314.4.3.4.2 Pre-shift inspection checklist contents.
BC § 3314.4.3.4.2
The pre-shift inspection checklist shall be based on the manufacturer requirements for the inspection of the scaffold, where such requirements exist, and shall, at a minimum, include an inspection prior to each shift to verify the scaffold, all components of and attachments to the scaffold, and all supports and anchorages of the scaffold, remain in a safe condition for use, and shall also include a comprehensive inspection following high winds. Such checklist shall be: 1. Where the scaffold was designed by a licensed rigger or sign hanger, or installed by or under the direct and continuing supervision of a licensed rigger or sign hanger, developed by the licensee; or 2. Where the scaffold was not designed by a licensed rigger or sign hanger, or installed by or under the direct and continuing supervision of a licensed rigger or sign hanger, developed by the registered design professional who designed the scaffold. Exception: A pre-shift inspection checklist is not required for a non-adjustable suspended scaffold that, pursuant to Section 3314.3.2, is not required to be designed.
